Help me find the right bra.....!

I'm off to a smart dinner on Wednesday for my husbands work. Its about the first time we've been out somewhere special since DD was born and I've had really bad PND and self esteem is still quite low. I have finally found a dress that doesn't make me feel fat, frumpy and disgusting (a small miracle in itself). In fact it actually makes me feel good! Its black chiffon, has a 60s look, long billowing sleeves, mid thigh length and the front is slashed to below the bra line. This is where I'm coming unstuck.

I bought one of those bras in M&S today that has the see through bit between the 2 cups but I think it still looks a bit dodgy ( you can see the clear plastic bit very easily) and is very uncomfortable. I don't know what I was hoping to find but does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should wear under it? Some nifty invention bra that does up really low down .....

I'm not big on top (only an A cup) but the dress is chiffon and slinky so I can't go bra-less

Please help, it all feels like its turning into a disaster and I want to curl up under the duvet and not go out after all.....

Thanks xxx

i think you need tthat tape, or those bits of tape in the shape of a half cup, maybe you will find in a dept store in the bra dept?

I am hesitant as i have only got more exp of dealing with larger cups, that wouldn't be able to wear such a dress without swaddling !!!
