I am 32 H as measured by Bravissimo. Have some lovely underwear from there but tend to go for the making it less obvious styles.

Off to a fancy do in a Bombshell dress (if you don’t know the brand is focuses on boobs and bum). For once I would like a wonderbra impact. The last time I felt this way I was 20 years younger and several cup sizes smaller. Happy to go back to Bravissimo or similar but need to know what style to ask for. Balconette bras are absolutely dreadful on me but I don’t know what might work.
any help gratefully recieved TIA

I love Bombshell HQ, and I'm with you on them suiting the hourglass (which I'm not, but they make me look more hourglass anyway).
A plunge bra with some side support is probably the sort of thing you want, but if you describe to the ladies in Bravissimo that you want what you used to get with Wonderbra - cleavage and forward projection I'm sure they will have plenty of ideas.

The Fantasie brand bras might suit you .

I love your confidence OP, you go girl, rock your style. Obviously, aside from the actual cup size, we ate all different shapes. I’m a 36F and l agree with the Fantasie recommendation above. Or try Panache. It’s a case of try on, try on and try on.

Enjoy your do. 💃

Oh I have a great bravissimo bra that might do the trick. It is plunge (only style that suits my shape) and has virtually no gore (is that what the middle between boob bit is called?) because the cups are formed of one continuous wire that goes across your front. Sounds weird, but gives massive cleavage with no visible bra.

I'll add the name of the style if I can find it out.

It's the Bravissimo Enya. Possibly one to actually try on though as the reviews suggest it doesn't work for everyone!

Thanks all for your help. Going to have a big try on in Birmingham tomorrow

I rate Fantasie bras, they do a good job for me and I stick mine in the washing machine as too lazy to hand wash! some of mine I've had for years. Good luck with your trying on
