Strapless bra suggestions for hoiking up saggy breastfeeding boobs in prom dress?

Going to a wedding tomorrow and got lovely strapless stretchy prom style dress to wear, however after breastfeeding DS for 2 years and now breastfeeding 7 mo DD my D cups are swinging low when unsupported in the dress. Eek. Got marksies magic nude body suck-it-all-in thing but without the straps there's not enough support. Can anyone recommend an underwear solution (aside from a Rigby&Peller corset!) that will flatten stomach and hoik boobs up without straps? Thanks very much!!

Go to debenhams. I went there this week in search of new bras as weightloss and breastfeedign have left them in a pretty sad state. I'm a 32dd and found some excellent ones. The new wonderbra strapless bra is fantastic, but a bit more ££ than I needed, but I got a fantastic Jasper Conran one for 6 quid in the sale. I wore it strapless yesterday and that thing didn't budge . As for the tummy, M and S do brillinat sucky in pants, though tbh, if you can get away without them I really would try. I always know when peopel are wearing them, which either means that there is fat bulging over the top, or that I am a weirdy pervert

for the boobs, would suggest the wonderbra strapless bra that's smooth and is supposed to be like someone holding them for you does, however, give me a pre-bfing look!

for the stomach, big pants with tummy control? the M&S ones are quite good...

Sorry got a bit trigger happy there!

Another vote for the Wonderbra one-works wonders for my boobs which aren't at their best having just stopped bfing after 2 years. Also have a Pandora one (on Figleaves website) which has a fuller cup.

You girls are amazing! Thank you sooo much. I just got measured and fitted with a nude lace strapless Wonderbra and it is fantastic! Right back up where they should be! Now I can start looking forward to the wedding, thanks again girls

Brilliant! I'm on another thread where 6 or 7 of us all have it. We should get a special MN discount.

MM - just wanted to say hope your hols goes well (missed you on the W&A thread).

I've ordered that wonderbra too, arrives tomorrow from ASOS

monkeysmama · 18/06/2010 23:32

Thanks Esher . On way now. Glad you're getting Lolas too. I love them though the fit is a bit small. Thinking of same holiday destination as you for last few days of August/start September!

eshermummy · 18/06/2010 23:37

ooooh, that's when we're going, maybe see you there .
Will have to ramp up the va va voom quotia if you're gonna be at the breakfast buffet!!!

Speak to me about it when you get back as I really shopped around and am hoping I got a really good deal so can give you the agent's details.
