I'm going wedding dress shopping for the first time next weekend and don't know what is acceptable and appropriate to wear to the bridal salons to shop in.|||People make so many assumptions/judgements about a person based on his/her attire. Honestly, the sales staff will spend more attention to you if you look nice. They'll assume that you're serious, that you're a lady, and that you have money to spend. On the other hand, if you put on airs, you could make them assume you're really wealthy and that you're ready to drop 10k on a dress on the spot. I personally wouldn't go out and buy anything new, but don't show up in butt crack jeans and a beer t-shirt either.
Definitely wear something that's going to be easy to take on and off all day. Not too many layers. When I went, I wore khaki shorts, a button-down shirt, and flip flops. Clean, pressed, and simple.
It's important to bring the shoes and undergarments (bra, corset, panties, slip, hoop skirt, etc.) that you'll be wearing with your dress when you go to a fitting, but that's not for a while. The bridal salon will let you borrow corsets and slips from them.|||You should wear something comfortable and nice. Don't show up in sweats. But maybe a nice pair of jeans and a top. Or maybe even slacks. If you already have something you know for sure you will be wearing for the wedding (shoes or veil) make sure to bring those along as well. I suggest you wear a strapless bra and bring a slip just in case they do not provide one at the shop. Also, if they will allow it, bring a camera so you can take pics of the dresses to show to other friends that may not go with you when you go shopping so you can get opinions. And don't forget to bring some water! It could be a lot of work trying on those dresses!|||As far as attire wear something you would normally wear to go shopping for a dress of any kind since really that is all you're doing. There really is no dress code at the bridal salon. Keep in mind though you may go through several bridal salon's before you find *the* dress so don't worry as much about what you wear to them. I just wore pants and a nice top to one, and another jeans and a nice top the same thing I would wear when I was shopping any place else.
You may want to wear undergarments similar to what you would wear for a wedding dress though like your bra, slip, etc.|||I would wear a simple dress, one that is easy to take on and off. And shoes that are easy to slide on and off.
I wouldn't hesitate to wear make up - I couldn't imagine going out in public without it, and who on earth wants to look at themselves in those mirrors without make up. I am sure that if you are old enough to get married, you are old enough to be careful taking the dresses on and off without getting make up on them. If something does happen, the store will be able to handle it.
Wear a decent bra and decent underwear (not braless, not a thong) - no one wants to help you get dressed if you're nearly naked.|||You can dress casual, it doesn't really matter how you look but make sure to bring a strapless bra and your wedding shoes, if you have chosen them. Most brides choose the dress first and then their shoes, so the bridal shop will have heels you can put on while you model the gowns.|||For starters, don't wear make up, you don't want to transfer anything from your face to a gown :)
I suggest something that's east to get in and out of :)|||If possible, wear undergarments similar to the ones you will wear on the day of the wedding, and similar shoes.|||Something really easy to take off and on. Not lots of buttons etc. Shoes should perhaps be about the same height as you plan for the wedding.|||Hello Tracy!
My Suggestion what ever you wear remember one thing not to be confuse yourself.
