Hello

For your fittings, it is essential that shoes being worn on the day,  are taking so length can be determined.  If you have special underwear for your big day this is also beneficial.  Most gowns have inbuilt bras and therefore a large majority of the time Bra's aren't required, but that is entirely at the brides discretion and how comfortable they feel in the gown etc.

Water if your store does not offer refreshments is advisable and eat something light before your fitting to prevent getting light headed, as you could be stood still for some time in one position.

Hope this helps

Always bring your required underwear. With the dress designs of today the most suitable under garments seem to be from Bras and things..! They have such a wide selection of everything in all cuts. You can buy the structural boy pants to the best nude “No show G-Strings”. You can also get lift up stick on bras for extra lift. Prices are great with a good return policy.!

One stop shopping.!

You should always bring a good bra and your wedding shoes - if possible.

You should take your wedding shoes so that you can view your dress with the correct height proportion.

Good undergarments; wear a supportive bra to make sure your if your dress needs to be altered it will give you the same support, make sure you check the fit of your dress with and without the bra, also briefs that are smoothing to the body seam free/elastic free to the true waist is best.

We always recommend that our brides bring the underwear they intend to wear with the gown and their wedding shoes to their first fitting. Hope that helps!

Hello,

The best thing to take to your fitting is your shoes that you are wearing on the day and any special underwear etc that you are wearing underneath. Most bridal gowns have in built bras so you may not need a bra. It is probably best to call the store that you purchased your gown from or the place that is doing your alterations and double check with them.

You can also take any jewellery & a veil if you have them to check it all against your gown.

I hope this helped.
