Strapless and low back bra that I can breastfeed with?

Hi guys,

I am going to be a bridesmaid in May and will have my baby with me, who will be 3 months old. I am exclusivley breastfeeding and I am struggling to find a bra that will be invisible while wearing the dress and but can breastfeed in. It needs to be strapless and low back.

It's too late to change the dress and yes, I will be bringing pumped milk with me, but would like the option to breastfeed as it will be a long night so will end up pumping and dumping otherwise.

I will be breastfeeding in toilets so I don't need one that I have to be subtle with but need a bra I can easily move. I've looked at stick on bras and once they are on, they can't be moved or they lose their stick.

Any suggestions really appeciated!

Have you explored getting a strapless bra sewn into the dress so you can just unzip the dress for feeding?

I have seen others post about putting a loose t-shirt on over the top for a bit more coverage if you didn't want to feed in the loo

The only option will be to have support sewn into the dress. Strapless bras by their nature need firm back band support,if you have larger norks. If the back is low ,your boobs would also be pulled down.Depending on the dress a few sets of Bye bra or similar could potentially be utilised but they’re 1 use only so would maybe need more than one set.

I thought I was asking the impossible! If I wasn't so low hanging (breastfeeding and gravity don't mix) then I'd just but loads of nipple covers 🤣 Thank you for your help
