Under Garments! *paging MNA*

Try paging MNA. I think she was the one I talked to about being a busty bride. But now I'm not sure. It's worth a shot! Just put : *Paging MNA* in your title.

She's awesome and usually replies quickly.

Really? That's about what I am. Do you feel secure without anything else? My concern is I don't want to feel like I'm going to fall out of it. Lol

Mine aren't gonna go anywhere in mine. esp since it will be laced to my figure lol Guess it depends on your dress.

Haha, @n&j2018 that makes sense!

@rachel maybe I will try! I think I'm just so used to having to always wear a bra that I assumed I did here too!

I have a corset that velcros into my dress. My shop also provided me with a corset when I was there shopping for dresses

My seamstress put me in a corset too. Did wonders !

I'm a 38DD and even when the dress was fitted to me I still needed lift and shape in the bust so bra less with cups sewn in was not an option. I ended up wearing an unlined underwire bra and my seamstress installed loops for my bra to literally hook into the back of my dress and in the shoulders. I felt amazingly secure.

I have a longline bra I got off of Barenecessities.com. I normally wear a 36P in US sizing, (36K U.K.) and had to go a couple of cup sizes smaller because they don't make strapless in my size, BUT it works super well and is really comfy and supportive.

I definitely recommend fitting yourself by the guide I'll post the link to in the next comment, because for busty women ESPECIALLY, you're likely wearing the wrong size. I had JCP and VS telling me I wore a 40DDD, and I had spillage ALL over the place. The gore didn't tack (the center part of the underwire of cups didn't touch my chest/lay flat) and it was a mess. Finding the right bra size helped IMMENSELY and has pretty much gotten rid of my "back fat" issue as well. I also no longer have upper back pain from the weight of my breasts, because the band provides the support now (as it should) instead of the straps. I also don't get the red strap dig-in marks anymore in my shoulders.

My bra was expensive ($110-ish) but I will definitely be keeping it for use with anything I can find! Lol.

Hope this helps!!

Oh, for anyone wondering what a 36P looks like, DF has a bigger head, and can literally fit his head in my bra cups. It's disturbing.

I knew it was MNA!

@Flying: Yep, it's me! Glad you caught me! I was about to go to bed!!

Omg, thank you!

@haley, thank you for that too! Seems like that would be a great option!

You're very welcome, OP!

@CMC did your corset come with your dress? I bought a steel-boned corset, but it's too lumpy to wear under my dress.

Huh this makes me think... I've been unable to find a bra that has the "gore" sit flat against my chest for years now and I just started to assume that it was impossible... I think I'm gonna need to try those measuring tips! When I got sized at Nordstrom about a year ago at a 38G...

I had cups sewn in so I don't have to wear one. Oh, and spanx

Not MNA, but I wear a 42DDD. Dress shopping I wore my strapless from Lane Bryant. The day of I'm wearing the basque from the Elomi Maria line.

Thank you for that @mlw! I will check that out too!

I don't know where you live, but if there is a Rigby and Peller near you, try doing a fitting there. VS told me I was a 36D, R&P finally got me in the right bra which was a 34F. I actually brought my dress in for the fitting and we were able to find a bra that worked really well for my dress!
