Coming back with that list
UNDER LAYERS
THIN LAYERS - I always wear a long slip under my dresses in the winter, I have the following:
Longer beige good for midi dress/skirts
shorter, black and grey, good for knee length
I also have a large collection of Uniqlo Heattech tank tops, scoop neck tee's and turtlenecks in different colours. The last one is for work, but the other two are game changers in adding warmth under stuff. The Heattech leggings don't work for me, as I have 45" hips.
I buy Memoi Sweater tights - I have 6 pairs in 4 colours that I rotate through and they've held up for 3 years for me (cold wash, hang dry).
I have several undersummer shorts (thigh chafe is a thing for me). They are NOT cheap, but I find them super comfortable, no matter the temperature, hot or cold.
PETTICOATS. I buy mine from Hell bunny - I don't bother ordering them online anymore, because the customs is stupid in Canada, so I wait until my local gothy store has the colours I want. I have white, red, hot pink, black, pale pink and purple petticoats. I think I want a yellow one and I'll be set.
Last are fleece lined leggings - I buy mine from costco, but they're kinda meh.

BOOTS.
Wearing knee high boots makes a big difference, for a couple reasons - 1) extra layer on the leg, 2) You can hide any manner of extra socks under the boots, even if they don't match your outfit - so you scored a sweet deal on blue/orange technical wool socks? No problem, the boots hide them.
I have a wide calf, so I stick to Naturalizer's Jerri boots or the domenique's from Soft Moc (I don't know if they're still available, but they've got a fuzzy lining and they're SO WARM)
~~~~~
Most of my warm dresses are
- jersey knit dresses from Eshakti, with elbow length sleeves ( I own these ones: 1, 2, plus a couple others that are out of stock )
-two Stop Staring dresses I got from ModCloth sales (Plus a Prim Class Hero skirt)
- a bunch of Lindybop Audrey dresses (they pair really well with sweaters/cardis and petticoats. (I really like the audrey dresses because they can swing very vintage pinup or very office appropriate depending on your accessories). They're super durable too. I've worn them with a blazer and sombre belt to interviews and with petticoats and mary janes to parties.
a couple Micheline Pitt skirts - They're lined and/or heavy!
I also want to shout out to the XiaoLiZi etsy store - they do wool dresses, and while I haven't been able to sink money into them, a couple of my friends have and rave about them.
~~~~~
So when I get dressed for the day during fall/ winter, I'm usually putting on underwear, bra then sweater tights, undersummer shorts, and full length slip, then extra socks (usually stolen from my husband), THEN my dress and (if situationally appropriate) a petticoat then a cardigan/sweater. I also have a knee length skirted wool coat (London Fog, bought from The Bay) That'll usually last me down to -10 C ish. If it's colder than that, I'm wearing wool pants and leggings or my wool long underwear and jeans.
I adore my silk shorts! Like serious game changer.
I wear a slip every time I wear a dress. I have two of [these] (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B019C3BCPM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) I bought on Amazon and they are comfortable and breathable.
I have this and it's excellent.

Amazon has a ton of options: 1, 2, 3
They also have fuller ones for a-lines and ballgowns. I just searched "dress petticoat".
Not sure of your wedding colors - but the style of your original dress would lend itself really well to a pink (or whatever color), frilly, petticoat to help you get that glamorous touch you are longing for, without breaking the budget.

I have two similar wrap dresses I wear to work and I wear a full slip! In a color other than nude so it looks intentional, usually ivory. Same idea as a tank top but smooth lines. https://www.amazon.com/ICONOFLASH-Womens-Nylon-Seamless-Oyster/dp/B0143L79IM/ref=lp_1045014_1_12?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1497465515&sr=1-12&nodeID=1045014&psd=1&th=1&psc=1
Not OP but I've recommended these before. I bought one pair on a trial and a week later bought a second pair. It like wearing shorts.
not sure if this is big enough for you, but I bought this for under my wedding clothes: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B016JPYIMU/
Agreed . I bought the dress linked below in Amazon and received many compliments. I even purchased a petticoat slip to get more flair.

Hey, I''m looking for some advice on Petticoats.
I got last week (or so) this maid dress. I've been trying it on and off these days,and got the feeling that it lacks some defining for the skirt part.
Now, I've been looking around a bit on Amazon, and found things like this and this, but, besides that, I don't know how to operate with these articles: I'm trying to get a "classy" look, closer to some kind of gothic lolita style with just some added volume to the skirt while avoiding the "generic" sissy look (Too much frills, excessive volume on the skirt, you know the deal).
What should I look for on a petticoat? What should I avoid? I'm looking to use it also for future dress purchases (Something along these lines. It would look cool if a bit of lace showed behind the skirt?
Thanks!
Mermaid slips are totally a thing, that might add a little poof if that's what you're interested in. Empire Bridal may be able to help--I don't know if they sell to the public, but your seamstress may be able to buy one of them wholesale.
However, if you're not looking for poof, I'd say to just snag a full length slip like this or this in white or beige. They are so light you probably won't even notice you're wearing one. They won't cause as much of a line as the actual mermaid slip from Empire, and you can probably just pull it up higher if it does.
It would probably be best to be safe rather than sorry, and $20 or $30 bucks is a pretty good price for peace of mind! :>
Let me know if you have any other questions!
I was thinking something like this where there's very little shape added around the hips.
I need some structure underneath to support my dress and don't know if I need a hoop, petticoat, etc. Anyone have some ideas on what type/ style/ size I should go with? I like that hoops will hold a form better and keep fabric off my legs, but worry it will look to unnatural when walking. I am also concerned about the hoops actually showing through.
train petticoat
8 layer tulle
*4 hoop layered
Some ideas above of what I have seen so far.
My petticoat was from my seamstress, who was Brenda from Amazing Alterations in Anoka, Minnesota.
Here is an American Amazon link to a similar one, with 3 adjustable hoops instead of 2. Hopefully this is helpful.
Maybe AliExpress would be able to ship to Cambodia.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a pair of short-length slip short to wear under loose pants? I have a pair similar to these that are unfortunately see-through and with a slit on the sides that comes up quite high. I need something that is slightly higher than mid-thigh and doesn't go up further than my belly button. Was looking at the Ilusion but wondering if they would bunch up too much. Or the Liang Rou. I saw jockeys being the recommend on this sub but they seem to be way too long. I'm in Canada as well. Thanks for the input!
Here you go:
This is a very simple plain one:
Look what I found on AliExpress
http://s.aliexpress.com/Zb2AVbqA
But all you have to do is put the “real silk” or “genuine silk” or “100% natural silk” into the search bar and use the terms “nightgown” or “chemise” rather than “slip”. A bunch will pop up. I have this particular one in several colors.
And here’s a knitted version I have from amazon: https://smile.amazon.com/Paradise-Silk-Knitted-Chemise-Sleepwear/dp/B00OUJYWM4/ref=sr_1_15?keywords=Mulberry+silk+chemise&qid=1566913473&s=apparel&sr=1-15
