    Ladies,

    On my todo list this month is looking for what to wear under my wedding dress. I am kinda stumped on this one since the back of my dress is open. See the post linked below

    Does anyone have a clue what one should wear under this dress?

    Depending on how much support you need, your seamstress can just sew in cups for you. They usually don't cost more than $50. Otherwise, you can buy a strapless longline bra that doesn't really have a full back, but rather straps that crisscross low on your waist.

    Thanks for the suggestions I didn't even think of sewing in cups.

    I looked in your previous post and you look GORGEOUS! I ordered this dress also and am so in love with it but am curious as to what to wear underneath.  Miss Gummi Bear had a post about the nuvi bra (I think that is what it was called).  She said she had success with it.  I would feel better wearing something like that as opposed to just bra cups because there is no chance you could "flash" someone with the nuvi bra.  It is stuck to your chest pretty tightly! I really want to find a "bodyshaper" of some sort also just so that I feel a little more tucked in. I am having a hard time finding one with a low enough back, it doesn't even look like you need one though! Please keep us posted as to what you are doing!! Good luck!!

    @Mochacoca: If this isn't too personal of a question, how much did you pay for that Scarlet dress? I love it!!!
