"The key to choosing the right shapewear comes down to picking something that you know works for you, your body, and your unique needs," says Palep. Searching for something a little more lightweight? Barely-there thongs or seamless high-waisted briefs like Spanx Undie-tectable Thong feel like next to nothing when worn and are ideal for light and comfortable shaping. If you're looking for added contouring and support, opt for high-compression pieces like Honeylove SuperPower Short or structured styles with built-in boning or bras. Shapewear comes in many different silhouettes and levels of compression. If you're wearing a wedding dress that's backless and/or has a plunging neckline, you should consider a deep-V backless bodysuit, like Shapellx AirSlim Backless U Plunge Thong Bodysuit. Convertible bodysuits like Spanx Suit Your Fancy Strapless Bodysuit offer great support beneath strapless ball gowns, while seamless briefs and thongs like Skims Core Control Thong work best for form-fitting gowns and body-skimming slip dresses.

When it comes to bridal shapewear, it's important to pick an undergarment that not only fits you perfectly but lays seamlessly under your wedding day ensemble.
