Please help me find the right underwear for under my wedding dress!

[LaurenLaverne]

Hello, I dont often post but I do often read the great advice in this section.

Please can you help re my wedding underwear?

My dress is a v neck with straps, but with a low cowl back, I could get away with no bra at all as Im 34B. But I would prefer some thing to boost my cleavage a bit!

I have had problems with those backless bra converters which wrap round your waist, I got really bad indigestion from it pressing on my stomach. I also get this with some strapless bras. (Does any one else get this? Am I just weird?)

I would prefer it to have straps.

I was thinking of a low back body, I was looking online at the Ultimo ones, but the reviews I have seen are not great. Has any one tried them?

TIA for your help!

I've used one of these before (although not this particular one). They're pretty good.

Thanks Toby, did it stay stuck on ok? As its not too expensive I might buy it and give it some trial runs!

I understand what you're saying about wanting to boost your cleavage but personally I would (and did) go braless - it's a long day and the last thing you need is to be uncomfortable or worrying about your underwear being on display.

I bought a cheaper one and it stayed stuck on absolutely fine. Wore it all night to a hot, sweaty nightclub. So I can only imagine that the M+S one would be better. And yeah, it would be a great idea to try it out first :)

I had my first experience of a Bravissimo shop the other week and was highly impressed. Could you take a pic of the dress along and see if they have any good ideas?

Isn't Bravissimo just for D+ cups?

Shirl - I get what you mean about not being uncomfortable, I have been very uncomfortable in some strapless bras, it really put a damper on my evening!

I think I will try out the stick on one up-thread, but in the end if it didnt work out, I could go without.

Hopefully I will look so fab(!) that no-one would notice a lack of cleavege.

The Dress is 11129 from http:www.ellisbridal.com if any one wants a look.

Ta!

Thanks but they don't seem to all be numbered. Gave up and googled <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=photo.storeofdress.net/ELI/BR/11129/11129-2.jpg&imgrefurl=shop.storeofdress.net/product.php%3Fproductid%3D46254%26js%3Dn&usg=__9mL_oAZfyjHfp9Kqt8wsJrJMDNg=&h=639&w=484&sz=38&hl=en&start=21&zoom=1&tbnid=AQzCeENfrCktAM:&tbnh=137&tbnw=104&ei=SMFSTd7cC8iKhQfH-unhCA&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dellis%2Bbridal%2B11129%2Bback%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX%26tbs%3Disch:1%26prmd%3Divns&itbs=1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here

It's not that low in the pics but one of these might do it. A strapless does need to be fairly tight firm to do it's job. Straps would probably show at the sides... If in doubt, go for a proper fitting first.

I am a 32C and I could not go braless all day - I'd be aching by the end of the day! Not to mention that without a bra they look rather spaniel like.

The numbers show up if you hover the mouse pointer over the picture, marriednotdead

Thanks Married, I will have a look at those.
The web site is a little bit too poncy for its own good! It took me a while to work it out.

Thanks TL, as you can see I'm better with bras than mouse pointers

Right I got the M&S stick on one and took it for a test run!
It was comfortable and did the trick on my cleavage but it started to lose its sticking power after about seven hours. I was dancing in a sweaty night club for the last three of them though! I reckon it would have lasted a lot longer if I hadnt had got so sweaty
