Underwear

Hi, So I'm looking for a good bra for my wedding day, strapless, gunna make them look a little bigger, any idea's? Also do you think it would be wise to wear a corset just to suck me in a little and make me look a little more curvy? Thank you.

Def wouldn't recommend a corset, as its a long day and wearing one for that amount of time won't be comfy. A good strapless bra is one by Wonderbra, though I can't think of the name, but it's about £35 and it's really good xx

What style of dress have you chosen as mine is having the bra sewn in as it’s a button down lace back and all bras can be seen in it I tried loads. Found the one I wanted at yours clothing and it’s now in situ.

Wonderbra is brilliant. Dont get a corset. It's hard enough to sit/move around in your dress let alone with something else sucking you in.

I had cups sewn into my dress. Was perfect and gave me a fab figure!

My dress had a built in bra. It was great and saved me money too

Agree with suggestions to have the cups sewn into the dress -, that's what I'm doing. As a smaller busted lady i shall make the most of being able to go bra free and comfy for the day

I wore a bustier. Made my boobs look amazing and pulled my waist and stomach in and it was comfortable. Btw, I'm a size 18 with a belly and no boobs, everyone thinks big girls have big boobs, we don't all!

Unless you are used to a corset don't bother. The plastic ones won't do the work and the proper steel bone ones are expensive and need breaking in and getting used to wearing for long periods

I had one sewn into my dress it was perfect !! I went for yet biggest cup to fill my dress and give loads of support x

So I’m a small bust gal and say stay clear of the sewn in cups. Been there and done it and had no boobs they get swallowed in the dress.
I bought a nude boost bra from Asda of all places for £6 as the back strap is low but makes me look busty as hell. Don’t go the corset route, if you must go Spanx but bridal lingerie is a rip off. Your H2B would probably prefer you to buy nice lingerie for the honeymoon when he hasn’t drank the bar dry, been up all night with nerves etc.

I have the exact opposite problem, I'm trying to look less curvy come onnnn slimming world this bride needs to drop 2 sizes 🤞

I would avoid a corset if your not use to wearing them, as you will find it uncomfortable to wear for a long time and difficult to bend if it’s tight.

I have this worry I have big boobs and don't do not wearing one so hopefully I can find something comfy yet sexy x but I would not where a corset it's to long of a day if it becomes tight and uncomfortable xx
