Bridal bras are expensive undergarments worn with wedding dresses. They come in various styles and designs, and are often embellished with beads and embroidery. The neckline of the dress determines the type of bra needed, and most bridal bras are designed like corsets to offer maximum lift and support. Some are full-length gowns that slim the waist, hips, and thighs. Modern bridal bras use spandex-blended fabrics for comfort and support.
A bridal bra is a type of undergarment typically worn under a wedding dress or other formal wear. There are many different styles and designs to choose from, but a bridal bra should complement the overall style of the wedding dress. Bridal bras are often more expensive than regular bras, and are often embellished with beads and embroidery.
The neckline of the wedding dress often determines the type of bridal bra that will be needed. If the dress is off-the-shoulder or strapless, the bridal bra will also need to be strapless. If the wedding dress has sleeves or straps, the bra can be strapless or strapless. In some cases, wedding dresses may have high necklines in the front, with a plunging back neckline. For this situation, a special backless bra would be required.
Most bridal bras are designed along the same lines as a corset. Its goal is to offer maximum lift and support to the breasts while slimming the rib cage and waist. The top of a bridal bra is somewhat like a traditional bra, but extends to or below the waist. Closure for bridal bras can be on the back or front.
More expensive bridal bras have vertical seams sewn into the midsection to help support the bust and slim the waist. Boning is usually made of narrow bands of steel covered in heavy plastic or cloth. Additionally, bridal bras can be purchased that target specific areas of the body for weight loss. For example, some bridal bras are designed to target the abdominal area, which would help to attract the stomach.
Some bridal bras are full-length gowns, ending just below the knee. This type of underwear slims not only the waist, but also the hips and upper thighs. This type of bridal bra is popular to wear with very tight dresses, such as the mermaid style. Mermaid silhouette dresses cling to the body to just below the knee, where the dress begins to flare out and eventually ends with a very full, floor-level hem.
Modern bridal bras achieve the slimming effect by using spandex-blended fabrics. This blended fabric is typically more comfortable than pure stretch. For some women who want or need a large amount of slimming or support, elastic bridal bras often work best. Stretch bridal bras are not considered as comfortable as spandex.
