Type of Bra to wear while Dress shopping/Wedding Day?

Courtney, on March 13, 2017 at 12:48 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 29

What type of bra should I wear when trying on dresses? Many people have suggested corsets or strapless. I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. I'm a bigger chested woman. 38C to be exact. I just don't want everything spilling out or show to much.

Thanks in advanced

    I'm quite smaller but I wore a strapless bra for shopping and they are sewing cups into the dress so I don't need a bra day of.

    I don't think it is the end of the world to try on dresses in a normal bra but for the wedding day definitely shop around for something that is comfortable. Also if you want to go braless most dresses can have cups sewn in.

    I just wore my good strapless bra, there was no way I was going without one (also blessed in that area!) BUT I wasn't looking at really slim-fitted dresses so I wasn't worried about trying to smooth things out/suck things in.

    Wear a lightly lined strapless. I'm a 36DD and to be honest, half the dresses I tried on without a bra at all because many of them have built in cups.

    I would just bring a few different ones. I'm on the smaller side. I wore a regular bra and brought a strapless.

    I actually didn't wear a bra for dress shopping (took it off to try on dresses). That being said, I am a B.

    I would wear a strapless or sticky bra... I wore a regular one and I totally regret it!

    I've read you may want to wear a strapless bra or whatever you'd be wearing on wedding day, but the most forgotten thing is to wear nice panties (or panties at all), as the ladies in the store will be helping you into the dresses.

    I have big boobs too but I don't plan on wearing one while trying on dresses. I wanna get the full vision without any kind of bra showing. I hear most have cups in them anyway. I'll wear a bra to the salon though lol

    38C isn't to big- I mean a C cup is quiet small- are you sure you are properly fitted?

    Nothing wrong with it either way- but the words don't make sense with the number you gave.

    Either way- wear a comfortable strapless- if you haven't been fitted- go get fitted. A large percentage of women are constantly wearring the wrong size bra.

    I wore a nude strapless from arie. But it was kinda pointless because davids bridal gives you a special bra and slip to use while trying on

    I wore a white strapless bra, which I ended up taking off to put on every dress.

    I don't know where you're gonna go shopping, but davids bridal provides a bra for you to try on.

    I also went braless. All the dresses I tried on had cups sown in already.

    I wore a nude bra with removable straps but was told to try on dresses without it by the consultant. I'm glad she told me that because the dresses felt much better afterwards.

    I'm the same size as you. I brought a strapless bra but most of the dresses I wanted to try showed my whole back so I just went braless.
