Plus-size lingerie market is filled with collections, offers, and all kinds of lingerie pieces curvy and big-busted women need for every day use as well as for special occasions. One of such special occasions is, of course, the wedding. In order to help you find yourself a gorgeous bridal lingerie piece we prepared some useful tips and tricks.

What to choose?

First of all, you have to choose a wedding gown and only then think about what you going to wear underneath it. If it’s strapless your underwear needs to be strapless as well. The bridal lingerie varies in styles as well as regular lingerie. From corsets to bridal pasties, from playsuits to peignoirs and so on you can try several pieces with your bridal gown and choose the one, which will sit perfectly.

If your dress is smooth and sleek your undergarments should be thin and sleek as well in order not to bulge creating an unflattering silhouette. So when choosing bridal lingerie make sure its design suits your wedding gown.

Where to find?

There are regular stores and boutiques that sell bridal lingerie. There are also online stores that are a good option of shopping for bridal lingerie. You might want to browse some of those first and subscribe for their newsletter to receive info about special offers, new arrivals, coupon codes.

Shopping online is a bit tricky as you don’t see the product and can’t touch it to view the quality but on the other hand it’s handy when you want your full privacy while trying on the piece. In this case try finding one store with the bridal lingerie you like and order something regular from them to see how they work and the quality of their product. Don’t forget to read the return policy first. Some of the best plus-size lingerie stores offer refund for the pieces that didn’t fit you. It’s harder with hosiery as once you opened the package and tried it on it cannot be returned.
