What To Wear Under White Clothes - Including The Wedding Dress? ›

Nude Underwear

White Or Nude Slip

Slip works best with clothes that are made off sheer fabrics, slightly loose and not boned – like summer dresses, bias cut clothes and dresses without lining. Ideally you wear a slip with bra and panties. Sometimes you can get just underskirt instead of whole slip.

Light grey or a light shade of pink

Seamless underwear is underwear without any lines or stitches. Another good solution for white clothes as there won't be any visible panty lines. But still make sure to wear the right colour as your underwear will otherwise still show.

When in doubt, nude or flesh-toned underwear is your safest bet. This color closely matches most skin tones, making it virtually invisible under white pants. The key is to find a shade that closely matches your skin to create a seamless look. Whether you have fair or dark skin, a nude shade will work for you.

If you're wearing a pure white wedding gown: Wear white or neutral-toned shapewear. If you're wearing a nude wedding gown: Wear shapewear that matches your skin tone.

Slips are the best thing for sheer skirts and dresses. Plus, you don't even have to wear an umcomfortable thong since the slip will cover it all! Just make you sure you still wear lighter-colored, non-patterned underwear.

You could for instance wear light grey or a light shade of pink if you have a fair skin tone. If you have a tan or a more coloured skin tone you could wear e.g. red undies under white clothes.

Wear a neutral-colored camisole or tank top underneath a sheer shirt for a seamless look. Choose a gray or neutral-colored undershirt to wear under a sheer button-down dress shirt. If you're wearing a sheer white t-shirt, opt for a neutral-colored bra that matches your skin tone.

A nude bra is the go-to solution for a no-show bra look under a white tee. It will essentially be just like a second skin and practically invisible under a white shirt. That said, it's important to find a neutral-colored bra that matches your daughter's skin tone.

Nude Bra Under White Clothes

For example, if you are fair skinned with some blue undertones, a light pink bra would blend in most seamlessly. If you have a warmer complexion with yellow undertones, opt for light brown. Darker skin tones would benefit from colours such as dark brown or even black.

Can you wear black shapewear under white dress? ›

Black will almost always show through white fabric no matter how many layers you're wearing. Same goes for white, especially in bright light. By wearing a color closest to your natural tone, you eliminate that worry.

You can also opt for white undergarments if you really want to go full-on bridal. In general, natural and neutral tones that are close to your skin tone and whites are your best bet.

Neutral colors such as black and nude are both great choices as they blend in with the skin and can go unnoticed. Skin-tone colored shaping garments provide more coverage, and make sure that your outfit looks seamless while staying comfortable.

Shapewear for Your Wedding Dress

You might be able to have more fun with your underwear choice if your dress isn't too form fitting. Though many brides these days are falling in love with dresses that require shapewear. For my own bridal portraits, I wore a strapless bra, a bustier, and a high waisted shaper.

You should opt for nude underwear.

As you probably noticed, this solution works for all linen clothes, so it is not surprising that it is highly recommended.

Wear high-waisted briefs to cover your lower half while still showing some skin. High-waisted briefs are perfect for sheer dresses—they cover your bottom and stomach area while still looking sophisticated. Black or beige high-waisted briefs are the most popular options, but you can choose them in any color you'd like.

Wear a neutral-colored camisole or tank top underneath a sheer shirt for a seamless look. Choose a gray or neutral-colored undershirt to wear under a sheer button-down dress shirt. If you're wearing a sheer white t-shirt, opt for a neutral-colored bra that matches your skin tone.

Red. It might sound counter-intuitive, but many women have found that red-colored bras are effective in achieving an invisible look under white tees. There's a science behind it–skin naturally has red undertones, which allows red bras to contrast perfectly with the skin.
