I have bought a strapless dress. just a summery one. I don't know which type of bra i need under it though. I need something as my boobs need all the help they can get after BF 2 DC. They are slightly empty looking and hang further down than i would like. I am a 32E but could be smaller as my current bra is a bit loose. So, would a bandeau bra work? or would it not give me enough lift and shape so my boobs are not part of my stomach? If that won't work then would a normal multiway or strapless bra be better?

This is what you need. There's a thread on here about it, it's AMAZING!!

If I could have got the Wonderbra at the time I needed, I would've tried it on.

I spent about 40 mins in a dept store on Xmas eve trying all sorts of 32E's and ended up with this Freya as the others gave me weird shaped boobs.
I've bought Freya for donkey's years and should've known theirs would be right.

Actually I got a 30E (I'm normally 32E)because it was strapless - I forgot!

Thanks for those links. I have the wonderbra one but it is too big for me now and I wasn't too keen on how low down on the ribcage it fitted. It also made my boobs look crepey at the top with how it pushed them up, could have been a size issue though. The freya one looks good, I buy freya's normal bras so it should be a good fit for me. Do you reccomend I go down a size sobenobu?

If you ever want to use the straps and wear it as a decent balcony type bra I would buy the normal size. My 30E one is great when worn strapless and very secure but gives me double boobage if I wear with the straps so not exactly multifunctional.
I have to say that I didn't get the chance to try the 32E as it wasn't in stock.
