Supportive underwear for lace wedding dress

6 replies

Hi,
How do big-busted ladies among you wear a supportive bra under a wedding dress with a lace back and shoulders? I don’t want to be pulling up my dress the whole night, strapless bra or stick on variety won’t provide enough support for DD/E cup. Clear straps will show, and wearing a corset under the dress will be too hot in summer/when dancing.

I know you get multiway bras with straps that can be shaped under lower back dresses, but that doesn’t help with the shoulders. Advice please!

I don't have any answers as I'm looking for bridal lingerie for a big bust myself.

Looked at Bravissimo but not impressed.

So a hopeful bump!

Have you already bought your dress? If I were you I'd have considered this before committing to a dress.

I'd get a dressmaker to sew something into the dress. They can put in cups that will support you and once the dress is fitted there should be enough support.

Ive always found the wonderbra strapless good, cant remember how low backed it is but it is the only strapless bra that makes me feel as supported as a normal and that i trust!

I chose my wedding dress to have a structured bodice for this reason, I'm a 36g and thanks to my dressmaker fitting the dress perfectly, I didn't need a bra at all, I had all the support inside the dress. I think you might need to consider carefully if this is the right dress, and have a chat with an experienced dress maker.
