First Bridal Dress Fitting and Shapewear Dilemma!

You are waiting for your dress to arrive in store and begin your alteration process what can you do to prepare?

For your first fitting you will be asked to bring your underwear and your shoes with you. With such a vast choice of shapewear available on the market it can be really difficult to know what is right for you and what will work well with your wedding gown. It can be one of the most daunting and stressful tasks in the run up to your wedding. Particularly if your dress is low back, backless, or of a very fine sheer fabric. For those with boobs it can become even more of a challenge!

With over 30 years of expertise in this industry I have seen countless numbers of brides buy many items for their first fitting only to find they are just not suitable. It is hard to remember back to when you tried it on or indeed if the sample you tried on the shop was too big or too small. Hitch Bridal Shapewear was born out of this frustration and aims to alleviate this stress by keeping it simple. Our Shapewear really is seamless and really is backless without any compromise on the all important tummy control and smoothing qualities.
