10 Best Lingerie for Your Bridal Lehenga
The D-day is just around the corner, and you have hung your bridal lehenga carefully in your closet. Your trousseau is all packed in bags, and the hair and makeup appointments have been fixed. Unless you are Cinderella with a fairy godmother, chances are that you have to take care of all the wedding-related jobs yourself. Amidst all these jobs, one of the key tasks is to select the perfect lingerie to complement your wedding lehenga. You should invest sufficient time in choosing the right innerwear that excels in both style and comfort. Weddings are rarely a one-day event, so you need the perfect lingerie pieces to go underneath multiple outfits for the various events that will surround your wedding.
Why do you need bridal lingerie for your lehenga?
You have been eating healthy and watching your weight for over a month now to attain that perfect silhouette in your bridal lehenga.

We have a fantastic collection of bridal innerwear that is not only comfortable for long ceremonies but also gives the bride those gorgeous curves to flaunt in the wedding pictures. We have put together some of the best bridal lingerie options to keep you covered.
1. Strapless Bras
The strapless bra is a perfect choice if you need to wear an off-shoulder blouse or a strapless corset top. It not only gives you the chance to show off those toned shoulders but also saves you from ugly straps toning down the beauty of your bridal lehenga blouse. You can go for a padded bra for a better look. They go almost invisible under the bridal lehenga without spoiling your glam look. The best part is that these straps are removable and can be styled in multiple ways for your other western & ethnic outfits.
2. Front-Open Bra
Are you planning to sport a plunging neckline with your bridal lehenga? Then these front-open bras should surely be your pick. These double layered bras give you a snug fit even under a fitted blouse. You can also wear the deep neck design that’s currently in style, and is meticulously designed for your bridal lehenga.
3. Backless Bra
Wondering what’s the right bra to pair with your backless choli? If you want to wear that daring backless choli with any of your wedding outfits, you can opt for a backless bra. The thin, clear band at the back allows you to wear those low-neckline blouses and even bare-back ones without showing the straps that can hinder the whole look. It keeps your bust line in shape and accentuates your wedding outfit designs.
4. Push-Up Bras
Wish your breasts were a little fuller? No worries, as the push-up bra is here to your rescue. It lifts your breasts and gives you enhanced cleavage underneath those heavy bridal blouses by increasing your original bust size by a cup or two. At the same time, padded cups give a no-show effect and instantly boost your confidence.
5. Balconette Bra
If you’re opting for a wide-neck blouse, you need a bra that gives a stylish look and boosts your bust line without strap visibility. Here, a balconette bra is your best bet. Wide set straps ensure great comfort, support, as well as appearance. And if you want something that makes you feel gorgeous even on the inside, opt for the balconette bra crafted with lace.
6. Bra & Panty Sets
Take your bridal underfashion a notch higher with matchy-matchy bra & panty sets. There is a wide range of lingerie you can opt for, crafted from plush polyamide to luxurious lace to pretty powernet. These sets are also a great pick for a holiday or honeymoon.

- It contours the curves and hip area while sculpting them.
- It offers a true mermaid shape.
