Do you have a pretty small chest? Good news, the strapless dress is made for you! Preferably wear it without a bra, to avoid lingerie that protrudes or unsightly marks. If the absence of a bra bothers you, choose a strapless dress with interior support:for the most flexible, an elastic band supporting the chest, for others, integrated stays. You can also opt for a discreet and comfortable bandeau bra. Some models have foam shells, to shape and add volume.
With a generous chest, on the other hand, the challenge is quite different. Choose a dress adapted to your morphology, whose bustier is cut in a dense fabric, for additional support:a thick material, with a tight weave, and a bustier with integrated underwire can compensate for the bra. Failing that, you need to find the right bra!
Opt for a bandeau bra that's tight enough to support the bust without adding bulk. If you don't feel supported enough to walk without thinking about it, bet on long bras, similar to cropped bustiers:feminine and sexy, they close low in the back and offer much better support than a simple bandeau.
If the choice of the bra, or its absence, is essential to the good strapless dress, the choice of panties is not incidental. The risk ? Undesirable elastic marks, most often, especially under a fitted and plain strapless evening dress. To avoid them, choose an invisible second skin lingerie with soft seams, or a thong. In any case, ignore the lace that can be drawn under the thin fabric of the dress. And check the result carefully before going out!
Also watch the color, to avoid revealing transparencies… If the fuchsia thong under a yellow strapless dress can be a choice, it is rarely very popular. Prefer black lingerie under a dark dress, skin tones, or close to your complexion, for all the others. What cannot be seen in the mirror can sometimes be seen in bright sunlight.
One last tip? If you have chosen a short and light strapless dress, beware of drafts! A gust of wind is sometimes enough to reveal what is hidden behind the dress, when it is not a twirl on the dance floor. If in doubt, think of the shorty:this feminine boxer ensures perfect decency on any occasion, remaining invisible under the strapless dress the rest of the time. Better ? There are all kinds, from women's lingerie in pop colors, to flesh or more sober black models.
