undies for the big day

MsJackson78, 28 January, 2010 at 22:22 Posted on Planning 0 9

Hi Ladies

I had a very disappointing shopping trip yesterday looking for my underwear for the big day. Where did you or are you getting yours from? I would love a basque so if you have any pics to flash (models only of course LOL) be great. I am a 34DD so need something big enough and supportive but also want something pretty too, not always easy!

    After reading some posts from the lovely hitched ladies, I abandoned the idea of a basque as my dress has a corset and I thought I may be too hot in it. I have gone for this set instead, from figleaves....

    Ive probably squished the photo so the poor model looks a bit odd! Im a similar size to you, so dont go strapless often, but I figure the corset on my dress will give me support too.

    I'm a big busted girl too, but luckily my dress is supportive enough to go without on the day. I have heard on here in the past though that Rigby & Peller do some lovely basques for bridal. I htink they are quite pricey though.

    Thanks ladies I really want a basque as wanted something special and I wont be wearing stockings so suspender belt wont really work. That set is beautiful tho sidsidney. I'll check out figleaves.

    Zippy, went into the Rigby & Peller store and a bra alone was £90!!!! They are a bit out of my price range unfortunately but there were some rather beautiful bits in their.

    I wondered if anyone had had any luck buying online?

    I have bought Feya underwear and bikini from this site - couldn't see any bridal stuff there though. Good for normal stuff though and I found them cheaper than other places too.

    I bought this one:

    before I realised I actually wasn't going to need it even if I changed my top at night. It doesn't look all that wonderful in the picture but it's really lovely in real life - the embroidery is very subtle and light gold-y coloured.

    I owe you a big thank you Jem I took your advice and had a good look on ebay and have just purchased the same basque and grace briefs ? at the fabulous price of £42. woooohoooo. The briefs alone should have been £57. I am praying they fit and look as nice on me as they do on the model.

    How do the sizes come up?

    I really want one now but want to make sure I get the right size.

    Although they do returns I guess!
