Help! What to wear under chiffon?

8 replies

purplecamisole · 07/05/2011 13:38

Have just bought a new dress which is peach chiffon. Quite short but gorgeous. Problem is, it's see-through (and not just so you can see the outline of underwear - you can practically read the writing on the label). I've tried it with a slip but the (fairly thick) straps taper in and then out at the back so you can see the straps of any slip (plus the slip is too long - it sticks out the bottom of the dress!).

Does anyone have any idea what I could wear under it? The only thing I can think of is a strapless body but the only ones I can find are really expensive...

how about this in natural?

Would be perfect if they had it in my size.. Will search for similar things though - thank you.

A nude thong and some flesh-toned daisy nipple covers?

Simple but more expensive

The Calvin Klein slips that KnottyLocks recommends were in TK Max yesterday for 9.99. (JL had run out of my size) Just tried them on with two chiffon dresses and they are perfect.

Bodas's smooth tactel range is very good for looking invisible under clothes. The maquillage colour is very good under white clothes but the shell pink might work better under a peach coloured top. It is a bit more expensive than the suggestions already made though.
