One of the things that I love the most about the holiday season is all of the parties and events that happen. So many excuses to get all dressed up! As much as I love lounging at home in my casual clothes, there is nothing I love more than dressing for black tie or a cocktail party!
I had ordered the navy gown in the photos above for an event I have coming up and wanted to shoot it prior to actually wearing it to the event. I'm SO glad I tried it on a few weeks before because I realized I needed to wear something underneath the gown to smooth everything out. The dress is so clingy/form fitting and the low/open back threw me for another curve ball...what to wear underneath?!
Luckily, Maidenform had sent me their Smooth Foam Cup Slip. I tried it on and it was almost as if it was made for me! It's exactly what I needed. I really think this slip is something every woman should have in their arsenal. There have been so many times where I've put something on with weird straps/open backs, etc. and I am always at a loss as for what to wear underneath!
When you put the slip on, it looks like you're wearing a little black dress- it's tasteful and modest and sucks you in (but still super comfortable)! The fabric is quality but really thin so it doesn't add any extra 'bulk'. It also has removable straps that you can rearrange in 7 different ways and a super low back that doesn't get in the way of backless/open back designs.
I have tons of backless dresses because that is a style I love, so having the smooth foam cup slip makes me excited to wear my dresses more often and confidently. I now totally understand why celebrities and models are always wearing shapewear! Thank you to Maidenform for sponsoring this post, all opinions are my own.

This slip will be perfect for a black tie wedding I will be attending next month!
I recently bought a dress that I LOVE but was having the same issue as you - the low back threw me off. I have a wedding to go to this winter that this would really come in handy for! :)
That shapewear looks perfect! I don't currently have anywhere I'd wear it because I've always avoided those types of dresses because I didn't have the right shapewear-but I'd get shopping if I won it! PS you look amazing in that dress!
I have a charity gala in Dallas that I am on the hunt for a dress for (hello Black Friday!). I will definitely need a slip as well! Your dress is absolutely stunning!

I am in a ZTA wedding on December 17 and I'm on the hunt for something to wear underneath my bridesmaid dress!
Love that gown and the maidenform slip is such a cool product! I think that would come in particular use during the holiday season but also for winter weddings.
what a great find!
One of my bffs has a milestone bday coming up in DEC and i'm super excited to celebrate with her.

Sydney this look is so gorgeous!! That second picture looks like a Chanel ad or something; so glam and timeless ♥ I'd love the slip for a New Years Eve party this year--it'll be my first NYE in Dallas, and I've been hunting for the perfect dress to make up for the fact that this will be my first holiday with my family a few states away, and to still make the New Year special. Having the slip would only help my confidence and make the evening all the more memorable.
I'd wear this under my dress at my best friend's wedding!
Black Tie NYE wedding - perfect!!
Such a pretty look! This slip would be perfect for my upcoming office holiday party where a cute holiday dress is a must!

We are going on a family cruise and I feel like this would be perfect for some of my black tie evening wear!
Love this idea! And your dress is beautiful! I have a black tie gala for the Boston Junior League in the spring and this would be great to have!
I've been meaning to comment for a few days because- girl- your back looks amazing! I think you need to share your back/arms workout! Maybe you have- I'm a newer reader in the last year.
Anyways, I'd love to enter the contest too! This would be a shoo-in for any black tie event!
Happy Thanksgiving!
After 2 kids, this slip is calling my name! Would love to win and wear it under my New Years Eve outfit :)
I love this! I have a bunch of holiday parties coming up, as well as my younger cousin's bar mitzvah. I purchased a dress with an open back and have been trying to figure out how exactly to pull it off with a bra and this is literally the answer to my prayers. I would definitely use it a lot!
I would wear it to my 25th birthday celebration on the 17th!
The dress is stunning on you! I would wear the slip for New Years Eve in Manhattan this year.
I have so many sorority events that I would love to have a slip like this for. We are ALWAYS having to dress up.
I would love this for my holiday work party!
That dress is gorgeous! The right undergarments can truly make or break your attire! Would love to try this! Thanks for the tip! Happy holidays!
