Firstly, wear that dress or that gown on, at your place or the store itself, walk around for a few minutes and see if those extra frills are coming in between your legs, hindering your movement. And so there you are, you will definitely need a petticoat or a slip to be worn with that dress. Simple! Isn’t it.
How to choose:
Now you get confused, as they are many types of petticoats available both in the stores and online. But the question is how exactly can we find out that a particular petticoat goes in well with a dress.
The petticoat slip depends on the type of the outfit. For example: a ball gown which is generally wide is to be paired up with a long length crinoline slip. Though the gowns come with petticoats along, it is always advisable to wear another just to add more bushy look to it.
Crinoline Net Petticoat
The crinoline dress requires a full length crinoline stiff net petticoat. The inner part of the petticoat near the legs can have ruffle or even hoop running at the hem or the bottom giving the dress a perfect shape.
Hoop slips
These hoop slips are made up 6 rows of bones in them. As the number of hoop increasing in the slip, it gives the dress a fuller and round shape as always desired.
Pros & cons-
The hoop slip petticoat has been the all time favourite for almost all the bridals. This is because of the easy she gets in wearing, as the frills of the gown doesn’t fall in between her legs while moving about. This gives a fuller look to the dress, making the bride feel beautiful as a princess.
The bones or the boning of the hoop slip are heavy and gets tough for some to actually carry them along with the already heavy bridal dress. And also the bones in the hoop slip makes it very inconvenient for her to sit, as the bones in slip are present to give a flatter look and prevent the flipping of the dress. So it gets difficult for the bride to sit normally.
Shop online:
They are lot of variation of slip available in the market for your wedding dress. You need to carefully select the petticoat slip only after thorough measurement of the dress and your body shape. Shopping for petticoat slip for your wedding is generally not advisable because you actually don’t get to touch and feel the fabric or the net of the petticoat slip.
So that was it dear bridals out there. Just ensure you try on the dress in the store itself and see if it actually requires a petticoat slip. If yes, then go ahead keeping in mind the type of dress and always make sure you are comfortable in it. Its your wedding and you cant afford to take a chance.
