There are a few options when thinking about what to wear under that strapless dress of yours, but take a good look at your dress first and consider what you’re looking for in terms of support.  Does your dress have a scoop neckline?  How far down does the back of your dress go?  Do you even need a bra at all? 

Once you have decided what you need as far as the cut of the dress goes, you have several a couple options for your undergarment.  First you have the infamous strapless bra.  These have come a long way from when I was younger.  Today, designers have made them much more comfortable and instead of flattening they enhance your bust-line giving you a smooth streamline look under your dress.  A good strapless bra can help you feel secure in a strapless gown.  Look for a bra that has a silicone lining around the top and bottom of the band.  This will help the bra to move with you. 

Next you have the bustier or corset.  These beautiful pieces of lingerie work well under strapless dresses by giving shape and support as well as providing a slimming effect.  They are one-piece garments that uses flexible boning to give a desired shape. They vary in length going from the bust to anywhere between the rib cage and the hips.  They are an ideal option for low back dresses as well as for full busted women.  The boning and structure offer the much needed support. 

If all else fails you always have the option of using an adhesive bra or the ever popular, double-sided tape. 

When you’re trying on one of these undergarments, raise your arms and bend over to make sure nothing fall outs; sit down to test for comfort; and check out the rear view – an ill-fitting bra can pinch the skin, causing bulges at the back and sides. 

Finally try on your dress with the bra to make sure everything fits perfectly!

Burlesque has inspired a vintage look of old fashioned glamour.  It’s all about sexy sophistication.  The Burlesque and/or Pin-up style consists of corsets, bustiers, stockings, feathered boas and high heels.  The Jesse Corset is a beautiful example of the sexy burlesque style.

Sexy costumes have become extremely popular over the past several years giving women a excuse to give the brazen burlesque look a try.  The Burlesque Babe costume is sure to get you noticed at this year’s Halloween party!

As in the past, corsets are extremely popular in the bedroom being worn as sexy lingerie.  However designers are hitting the fashion runways with gorgeous corsets in fabrics of brocade, velvet, satin, leather and lace being worn as outerwear with jeans, skirts or slacks.

Hollywood’s biggest stars are sporting the sexy corset look!

Lingerie comes in every shape and size from camisoles to corsets.  Words like babydolls and teddies take on a whole new meaning after the kids go to bed and mom and dad get a little alone time in the bedroom, or the living room, or the dining room, or the kitchen…

Lingerie just like clothing, is an extension of what you’re feeling at the time you put it on.  Feeling a little fun and flirtatious, try a sheer babydoll with a matching thong or g-string; feeling a little trashy and sassy, try a leather corset with garters.  There’s no end to the sexy possibilities in the bedroom!
