(Or even just a bandeau if you are ok with less support).&nbsp; IMO this is less hot than a tight slip w/ built in bra.&nbsp; </p> <p>I don't own this one, but it's basically what I'm thinking of.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/hanky-panky-silky-skin-slip/3062054?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=7200&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-1_19_C" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....t&#038;con</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reccm-slip-with-bra-for-this-dress#post-1319024 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 16:11:32 +0000 rabbit 1319024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well this is what I use on the bottom half: &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.maidenform.com/intimates/shapewear/control-levels/everyday-control/flexees-weightless-comfort-thigh-slimmer-m1565">http://www.maidenform.com/inti.....htless-com</a># &nbsp;and a t-shirt bra in the same color up top. &nbsp; It's been fine under summer skirts, not as cool as cotton would be, but about equivalent to exercise gear. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reccm-slip-with-bra-for-this-dress#post-1318927 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 14:53:20 +0000 Gaylene 1318927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful dress. If you can't find a slip with a built-in bra that is comfortable in the heat, I'd find a dressmaker, tailor, or even a friend with a sewing machine who could whip up a loose, tank-style slip made from fine cotton lawn. Even a novice sewer could handle that kind of simple pattern, which would involve just 2 pieces stitched together and a quick finish on the armholes, neckline, and hem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reccm-slip-with-bra-for-this-dress#post-1318911 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 14:32:19 +0000 Janet 1318911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wish I could help you, but I can't even consider a slip with a bra built in, and I can't recall seeing anything like that (that wasn't girdling shapewear) in my recent slip search. I did end up getting this one, which was recommended here:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/commando-tailored-slip/3230128?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=Black&amp;resultback=839&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-1_2_D">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/co.....8;contextu</a></p> <p>It skims without binding -- it just arrived, so I haven't had a chance to try it with the dress I need it for, but it seems really nice. It's a little heavier than I expected, so it remains to be seen whether it's lightweight enough for hot weather.&nbsp;</p> <p>That dress you bought is really beautiful. Doesn't it drive you crazy when you want something light and breezy for the heat, but it's too sheer to wear by itself?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reccm-slip-with-bra-for-this-dress#post-1318820 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 13:05:17 +0000 ironkurtin 1318820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Any suggestions for brands or items? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reccm-slip-with-bra-for-this-dress#post-1318691 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 07:31:03 +0000 glamourpuss 1318691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What rabbit said.&nbsp; Or, could you possibly get away with an extra long camisole over a nude bra and panties, if a bra is still necessary?&nbsp; Anthropologie sometimes has things like that.&nbsp; I bought several a couple of years ago. Here's one that's sort of similar, if a bit more, uh... fancy.</p> <p><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/31591357.jsp?cm_vc=SEARCH_RESULTS#/" rel="nofollow">http://www.anthropologie.com/a....._RESULTS#/</a></p> <p>You know, dresses like that usually come with their own slip, like a cotton voile underlayer, which may be something else to try and find on ebay, ha!&nbsp; Or, maybe try etsy for something like a linen or cotton voile slip if your search for something cool enough to wear in the heat that has a bra in it comes up empty.&nbsp; You might be able to find someone who could make something for you.&nbsp; The only bra-slips I can find these days are shapewear.</p> <p>Sorry I'm not much help.&nbsp; The dress is beautiful and perfect for Texas heat.&nbsp; Great find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reccm-slip-with-bra-for-this-dress#post-1318656 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 05:42:45 +0000 rabbit 1318656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear a nude to me bra and nude to me long boyshorts (actually a light shapewear thing, but I'm trying to find a cotton version because it's okay, but not great in heat)&nbsp;under a thin&nbsp;white cotton dress. &nbsp;Sometimes white undergarments show through, but if I can get an underlayer that's close in tone to my skin it usually doesn't.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reccm-slip-with-bra-for-this-dress#post-1318480 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 02:26:38 +0000 ironkurtin 1318480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I purchased this beautiful lacey 120% Lino dress off eBay.&nbsp; It is gorgeous.&nbsp; It is also very sheer.&nbsp; Can anyone recommend a slip with a bra in that I could wear under?&nbsp; Ideally one in a breathable fabric since I'd only be able to wear a sheerish white linen dress when it's hot!</p> <p>Alternately, what about a white tank with bra in and white boy (or longer) shorts?&nbsp; Hey Pretty Thing mentions this as an option (<a href="http://www.heyprettything.com/2014/07/classic-white-oxford-shirtdress.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.heyprettything.com/.....dress.html</a>).</p>
