Maternity Wedding Lingerie

Hi. I hope you can give me some advice.

I bought my dress before I became pregnant. I will be in the middle of my 6th month when I get married.

The alterations lady I have will be able to alter the dress I have, but I'm having problems on what to wear under it. I can find a slip that will fit but having trouble with the bra, my dress is strapless. Are there strapless bras, that you know of, for pregnant women that give good support? Or should I have the bra built into the dress? Or should I have straps put on so I can wear a real bra (my last option)?

Any advice you can give me would be a lifesaver. Thank you.

Your maternity wedding lingerie
by: Coralie

Congratulations your engagement and on your pregnancy.

And many thanks for your question which highlights a problem that many pregnant brides face.

At 6 months pregnant, it's likely that your breasts will be several sizes (band and cup size) larger than your normal size. Unless you normally wear a bra with a cup size larger than a D cup, you should be comfortable with a strapless bra for your wedding, especailly if your dress is fitted and
supportive.

The Embrace strapless bra from Amoralia
http://www.amoralia.com/shop/maternity-bras/cat1/ is one good option and I like the simplicity and comfort of the nude strapless bandeau from Isabella Oliver.

Lots of maternity brides do like the extra support that a maternity bra with traditional bra straps provides - especially late in pregnancy.

Take a look at the super-slimming and chic maternity slip from Isabella Oliver which has tiny shoestring straps and which will fit up to a
DD cup. I'm sure your dressmaker would be able to fashion pretty straps - perhaps from satin ribbon, which would cover the shoestring straps of such a slip.

I hope this is helpful - please let me know if you need any more help.
