ENDER LEGARD ’MAE’ backless shapewear bodysuit with moulded, underwired plunge bra for a low front neckline. Includes integrated tanga-style, seamless briefs with hook & eye closure in the gusset for convenience. Handmade in London, United Kingdom.
You found the dress. The one that makes you feel unapologetically yourself.
Maybe it's by Grace Loves Lace, Made With Love or Claire Pettibone — a silhouette so breathtaking that it has to be worn exactly as designed: low-backed, open, uncompromising. But then comes that familiar knot of anxiety. How do I get the bust support I need without ruining the moment?
The MAE was built precisely for this moment. Born from two decades of female-led innovation, our patented bodysuit (GB2548925) is the only solution on the market that provides bra-level bust support without the need of a bra band — freeing your back and boosting your confidence while being completely invisible beneath your dress.
The Problem Every Backless-Dress Bride Knows
Most lingerie brands quietly ignore the truth that conventional bras are useless to backless dresses - especially if you are a D cup or above. They show and ruin the silhouette entirely. The compromises pile up: tape that doesn't hold, multiway bras that dig and conventional shapewear that stops at actually being useful.
The MAE eliminates every one of those compromises.
Why Women Choose MAE - Because backless shouldn’t mean braless. And support shouldn’t mean visible straps, squeezing bands, or constant adjusting.
- Patented Bra-level support: No Back Band required. Our patented design (Patent No. GB2548925) supports your bust like a bra, while remaining entirely hidden under the lowest backless gowns.
- Breathable Contour Shaping: Lightweight, ultra-breathable OEKO-TEX® compression fabric smooths lumps and bumps while staying invisible under any gown. No slipping. No rolling. No second-guessing.
- Seamless 'Second Skin' Finish: Raw-cut edging ensures a flawless transition against your body, hiding belly buttons and visible panty lines (VPL) even under slinky silk or crepe.
- Confident posture and comfort: The firm compression of our Lycra®-infused fabric shapes and improves your posture, helping you stand taller and radiate confidence from the aisle to the dancefloor.
- Beautifully practical: Unlike mass-market alternatives, MAE features a discreet, adjustable hook-and-eye gusset closure for effortless bathroom breaks and comfort throughout the day/ night.
- Customisable Versatility: Swap the standard fabric straps for clear silicone or spaghetti staps (sold separately) to perfectly align with your preferences.
- Slow Fashion Heritage: Proudly handmade in the UK by our female-led team, ensuring ethical craftsmanship and a superior fit that factory-made garments simply cannot replicate.
Real Bride. Real Confidence. ❤️
“The MAE is absoluteeeeeely phenomenal!!! I bought it for my wedding dress, which has a very low back. I just tried it on and it fits like a glove — puts everything in its rightful place and moves with my body (I don’t feel restricted in it). Thank you for guiding me through my confusion when choosing the best bodysuit for my dress. I’m just so pleased with everything!!”
— Vestaen B.
“My bridal boutique recommended Ender Legard. The suit itself was so comfortable. It gave me lots of confidence on my wedding day.” — Helen, UK

1. I have a longer torso/ fuller bust. Will your bodysuits work for me?
Yes - this is specific sizing advice for longer torsos and fuller busts so you can choose the best size and style for your body. Guidance is available for narrow ribcages, larger cup sizes and unique proportions to help you achieve a comfortable, secure fit. As always, we're available to chat via LiveChat during business hours if you need additional assistance.
2. Will the shapewear show under my dress?
ENDER LEGARD bodysuits are created with light shaping fabrics and seamless or raw-cut finishes that sit smoothly against the skin for an invisible look under dresses. All styles are designed to minimise visible panty lines and work beautifully under slinky, unlined gowns.
3. How supportive are the cups and underwire?
The bodysuits feature patented innovation to support and shape the bust, similar to a well-fitted bra, while still working with low backs and tricky necklines. The support level is designed to enhance both comfort and confidence so you feel secure all day (and night).
4. How do I know what size to order?
ENDER LEGARD provides detailed online sizing guidance to help you find your correct size in a few simple steps. If you need extra help, reach out for personalised advice before you buy.
