The Anne Thieny Experience

Gerardo Hidalgo, the President of Anne Thieny said there are many ways they can help brides-to-be when they are in search of their perfect bridal lingerie, swimwear and more. In general, Gerardo said, they help brides choose the perfect lingerie for their own bodies. “It is critical for us to advise brides to choose the right bra and comfortable shapewear (if they need it). Also, most women only know of one style of lingerie, though there are many options that they can choose from, ranging from conservative to very sexy,” Gerardo added. At Anne Thieny, they explain the difference between all of the various bra and lingerie styles and materials, then provide custom recommendations based on what works best for each bride’s individual style preferences and body type.

In regards to swimwear, Gerardo said before they make any suggestions, they ask the bride where she is going for her honeymoon. Then, the Anne Thieny team learns about the bride’s personal taste and favorite colors. “If she wants a two-piece swimsuit, we advise her of the best color, style and print for her body type. If she wants a one piece, then we also recommend something with nice support.” In addition, the Anne Thieny team advises brides on sun protection and recommends options for hats, cover-ups, and body lotions.

Tips & Trends for the Bride-to-Be

For tips, Gerardo definitely recommends that every bride get a good bra for her wedding gown. He said it has to have a good support, be a neutral color, be discrete, and still allow the bride to dance and move without any concerns or restrictions. The second most important item he recommends is a very good body shaper. The third item he suggests is lingerie (French if is possible), which he says is very important to the groom. Last but not least, Gerardo said the bride should also have beautiful swimwear options to wear during the honeymoon that will let her feel and look gorgeous!

Finally for trends, Gerardo shared with us that the current craze for lingerie are styles that are based on the book and movie “50 shades of Grey,” including items that are provocateur and suggestive with lots of laces, corsets and straps. Also, light colors are in fashion right now as we approach spring and summer. For swimwear, he said the trend is centered on the retro style with a lot of straps, pompom cascades and gorgeous prints with plenty of colors!
