The Big Day: Bridal Lingerie Corsets

Amongst all the chaos of choosing wines and food items, decorations and lightings, dresses and shoes, and so on, a bride faces the important task of choosing bridal lingerie. It tends to get all very confusing. There are corsets, then there are girdles, bustiers, shapers, and then there are chemises and bra sets, all available in multiple colours. For someone who is doing it all for the first time, it can be a harrowing experience, one full of confusion and exasperation about what to buy in the face of countless options with innumerable designs. However, the brides have spoken- it was recently revealed in a survey that most brides prefer to wear bridal lingerie corsets over other forms of underwear and lingerie.

There are many types of bridal lingerie corsets available with decorations and embellishments, such as lace or small buttons or hooks. These are usually not worn under wedding dresses, which normally feature very fitted bodices and most of the times have traces of sheer fabrics. A smooth polyester, satin and nylon corset looks best when paired with a gown, and those made of sheer material or having neutral colours, such as a natural skin tone, ivory, or pink, will reduce unwanted flashes that may be seen when the dress is exposed to the high intensity light of camera flashes.

Most brides make the mistake of wearing bridal lingerie corsets directly on the day of their wedding. Ideally, a corset should be worn at least for a fortnight to be worn comfortably on the wedding date.
