Getting it right means finding lingerie which flatters the overall line of your gown, as well as making you go in – and out – at all the right places.

Choosing lingerie is especially difficult if the dress of your dreams is a slinky, clingy, strapless or halter-neck number, so don’t ever be tempted to leave the task until the last minute.

The first rule of finding those perfect undies is to know exactly what the dress looks like before you even start. Lacy undies with bows and frills may look great but if your dress is simple with smooth lines, then fussy underwear is a definite no-no.

As with the dress, the right shape, size and style of underwear can blost your assets and hide any flaws, whereas poorly-fitting small can ruin even the most beautiful of gowns.

Remember, you want to feel as gorgeous underneath your gown as you look in it – having the right lingerie will complete your wedding day outfit.

If you are looking for separates there a few options:

Bridal lingerie from Simply Yours

Sleek option from Ultimo

This Myla set is very quirky. The thin straps would be perfect under smaller straps on a dress and the silky material would work very well under a sleek dress. The frills at the base of the bra and on the waist of the knickers would work perfectly under an A-line or babydoll dress.

If it is strapless you need, Ultimo have the perfect pair. This set would work brilliantly underneath a strapless or spaghetti strap dress, and sleek materials like satin and silk wouldn’t cause problems.
