Strapless bra for empty boobs 😫

ThisMustBeMyDream · 20/04/2025 15:00

After significant weight loss, my poor boobs are mostly skin. I'm a size 8, wearing a 30FF bra. So not big. But not tiny I suppose. I need lift. So I need a strapless bra that will lift them, and give them a good boost due to them being rather sad and a bit droopy these days. I've got lots of events coming up that I can't find dresses for, as I can't find a bra that works with them! Not been able to find anything in shops. All the strapless bras I've tried have just allowed the boobs to sit in exactly the same position as if I wasn't wearing a bra - and leaving the bra massively gaping at the top. Also the bras stick over the top of the lovely dresses I now want to wear.
I've ordered a boomba for my wedding dress as I get married this summer, so I'm hoping I might be able to utilise that in some dresses. Wonder if I could wear that inside a strapless bra for a boost?
Help me out with some magic!

having the exact same problems! My boobs are also empty but mostly loose skin so even when trying to push them up they bloody fold!

I've got rubbish boobs! Not big, but kinda empty. Most strapless bras just seem to be like a boob tube with a line right across the top. I swear I tried all the strapless bras available a few years ago, and the only good one was a wonderbra one. The boning in it literally looks like a hand to hold your boob up!

Since then, I think john lewis have started making a dupe basically. So I think I have one of each. I think this is the john lewis one

Anyway, they stay in place and push boobs up!

You're a bloody genius! Thank you so much! I'm literally walking out of JL now, having managed to get one of the cassie bras in my (new!) size and it's absolutely perfect! Summer dresses here I come! So glad I posted here, or I'd have not found that! It was really hidden away at JL too!

Glad to have been of service. I swear all other strapless bras can proceed directly to the bin!
