Need something to perk my boobs up in my wedding dress -HELP!

I'm getting married soon. My dress is two parts made up of a silk slip with a V neckline and spaghetti straps, with a lacey over-dress which is a bit like a kimono shape and with a lower neckline than the slip. I hope that makes sense!

Anyway, I don't think I can wear a bra with it as the back and neckline are low and the straps are so thin, but I need to perk my boobs up a bit somehow. They don't look too bad but I know I'll feel self conscious about it on the day. I'm a 32G so not massive but not small either.

I've looked at those rabbit ear type stuck on lifting things but I think they would come up higher than the cups on my dress (and they have crap reviews anyway).

Does anyone have any magical ideas I've not thought of yet?

could you get cups sown into the dress?

The wonder bra ultimate strapless bra comes down low in front and can be worn low in the back?

Mine was, I think, a bit like you are describing, and that’s what I wore.

Get pro gaffer tape or medical / physio tape. I'm not joking it works!!! They do not move but have to take it off with baby oil. See
apracticalwedding.com/kim-kardashian-boob-tape-bra-trick/ the version which goe straight across or under your boobs straight seems like a good bet from the description of the dress. Would it impact on your wedding night tho? Takes bout 10-15 mins to remove. Good luck x

I would go to a fab seamstress to see if they can build some cups inside the dress

Google the Kim Kardashian tape boob trick, she does it for every event and her boobs look very perky

Just don’t rip too hard at the end of the night!

Try brassy Bras on instagram,
I've seen these hold up plus size model Ashley Graham's boobs and you can cut them to the shape

The masking tape thing terrifies me!! I could do a test run I guess..

Can't have cups sewn in as it's a very very delicate silk slip. And I only have a couple of weeks to go!

The brassybra thing I think is the equivalent of Perky Pear in the UK. Which has very mixed reviews and they are one use only, so if it doesn't stick on right you're screwed as it can't be repositioned Sad
