I like to do everything a billion years before it has to be done. Last week I informed Mr. Caterpillar that I would die sometime in my 80’s and that he would need to follow suit about four months after with no remarriage in the interim. So, the day I ordered my dress, I bought my lingerie. I was supposed to get something strapless with an attached thong. Now, I hate the thong with all my hating ability. I would rather have gone naked. Luckily, it never came to that. I went to BraTenders.

They require a credit card to make an appointment, a practice that I generally find off-putting; but, this is New York, and if I avoided everything off-putting, I guess I would never go outside. In any case, they have a $50 no-show fee that rises to $100 for weekend and evening appointments.
But, the service is pretty amazing. It’s just you and a fitter. She asks you to describe your gown; asks you what you’re willing to wear; and measures you. Then she brings you exactly what you need. So, instead of the bra-thong leotard corset combo I was dreading, I got a perfectly fitted strapless bra and a pair of Spanx-like bicyle short thingys.
