Table of Content

    When the sun is shining, and the temperature rises, a summer dress becomes the go-to outfit for comfort and style. But have you ever wondered what to wear under a summer dress to keep everything smooth, comfortable, and invisible? 

    The right underwear can make all the difference in how your dress fits and feels. Here’s a guide to picking the perfect undergarments, featuring top recommendations from Diana Intimates.

    Types of Women's Underwear for Different Summer Dresses

    When it comes to dressing for summer, choosing the right underwear is just as important as picking the perfect dress. The wrong choice can lead to visible panty lines, discomfort, or a less flattering silhouette. To help you make the best decision, here’s a guide to different types of women’s underwear and how they pair with various summer outfits:

    1. Briefs 

    Briefs offer full coverage and sit at the natural waist, making them super comfy for everyday wear. They’re great under flowy maxi dresses, while control briefs help smooth your silhouette under fitted styles. 

    2. Bikini 

    Bikinis balance style and comfort with their low waist and moderate coverage. They’re perfect under casual cotton dresses or breezy slip dresses without bunching up.

    3. Thongs 

    Thongs are the best choice for tight-fitting summer dresses, preventing visible panty lines. Their minimal coverage keeps your look smooth and lightweight, especially in hot weather.

    4. Seamless or No-Show Underwear 

    Seamless underwear is perfect for lightweight fabrics like linen or silk, preventing unwanted lines. Nude seamless options are best for white or pastel outfits, ensuring a flawless look.

    5. G-String 

    With even less fabric than a thong, a G-string is ideal for ultra-tight or sheer dresses. It keeps your silhouette sleek and free from visible lines under form-fitting outfits.

    6. Low Back Bra Straps

    Want to wear a bra under your backless dress? Low back bra straps attach to your regular bra hooks and cross around your torso, lowering the back strap. They’re an easy way to keep your favorite bra while rocking an open-back look! 

    7. Nipple Covers or Fashion Tape 

    For ultra-deep V-neck dresses, going braless can be the best option. Nipple covers provide discreet coverage, while fashion tape helps keep your dress in place, ensuring everything stays secure and stylish. 

    8. Strapless Bra

    A strapless bra is a must-have for off-shoulder, strapless, or halter dresses. Choose between a basic or push-up style for extra volume while still getting the support you need without visible straps.
