Re: are you all wearing slips
I have an A-Line also, I wasnt planning on wearing a slip until I tried on my acutal dress. My consultant said that I needed a slip just make the dress lay right. Nothing poofy though

Re: are you all wearing slips
Mine is also A line and I am wearing one. I tried it with, without and a double. That is how I decided. Your bridal shop should have them for you.

Re: are you all wearing slips
i think stayandjohn hit the nail on the head. even if you don't want the poofiness, you still need some sort of slip so that your dress hangs correctly. one of my GF decided not to wear her slip the day of her wedding, and honestly, her dress did not lay right on her.

Re: are you all wearing slips
I agree with all , I am wearing a slip to give the dress some "umph" to it.

Re: are you all wearing slips
I didn't want one at first, because I am not a poofy person. But it does add to the beauty of the dress. It makes it look full and beautiful. Try one on where you bought the dress. They should have them there when you try on gowns. You can try the dress on with and without it and see what you like better. But in the end, I am wearing one.

Re: are you all wearing slips
Same here, I am wearing a slip, it makes the dress a little more comfortable and it lets the dress lay better.

Re: are you all wearing slips
no slip for me for my a-line dress. I am not a fan of poufiness and my dress has a small toulle mini slip to hold it up.

Re: are you all wearing slips
I am having a little extra crinoline sewn into my dress to make it lay right.
I will not wear a slip though. The middle of my dress is plain so you can see every little thing. That's why I don't think I can wear stockings either....I just hope its not too itchy.

Re: are you all wearing slips
Yes, I did wore a slip and I'm glad I did. It made it more puffy and gave it more "volume."
