I've thought bout mKing mine, I've seen a few multiway bras but they r all plain I want somat nice, so if you find you self a nice bra make it strapless. Bravissamo is meant to be really gd and try independent lingerie shops in your area
CommentAuthorMrsMcleish2B
Thats a brilliant idea!!! Thank you so much xxxx

i've just bought mine from la senza, its gorgeous - strapless, very supportive (air pockets, lol) and lacy as its their bridal bra! I'm usually a 36E and I got a 38DD. They're fairly big fitting cups so it might be worth a look? xx
CommentAuthorMrsMcleish2B
Thanks Sara I'd completely forgotten about La Senza. This is why I love this forum! xxx
Gossard were doing a gorgeous set called Ooh La La which my lovely boy bought me for my birthday this year. It comes in black or ivory and, while I'm usually a 34F, the 36E fits perfectly.

look up a brasserie in your area, we've got a fab one up in Liverpool called Madame Foners :-)
CommentAuthorSijen
I was going to say Bravissimo too hun - they've got fab strapless bras but sadly not in my size...think I'll have to go to a brasserie - bridalmiss have you been to Madame Foners before?

CommentAuthorSijen
Ha Enny I wish that would work lol. My dress shop woman said I could buy a normal bra and the dressmaker would alter it into a strapless which is probably what im going to have to do.

Sorry - I'd not looked yet. I'm EE, so I hope I get lucky, but maybe not... At least your man gets his handful even if you find them a handful to deal with ;0)

I am soo with you on this, at least bra makers actually make your size, i am a 32 or 34 GG(depending on full cup or balconette style,) i find that many stores stop at an F cup. I have, however found a strapless range, its evie at Deb en hams. It would be prefect if it gave just a bit more support, but i am hoping under a tight fitting dress it will be great! Also there is a range called masquerade, i think by panache. x

Hi Sijen yes I've been to Madame Foner's a few years ago, they were great - there was an older lady there who hoiked me up no problem and who totally knew what she was doing, I've heard they've moved from Bold St to Bluecoat Chambers to somewhere on Smithdown but am going to track her down! I got a lacy black strapless a few years ago from her with had corsetry boning in the cups, amazing!
P.S. fab to meet you on Saturday at the fair!
CommentAuthorFutureMrsPite
ive been looking for strapless bras too although i dont have a big bust (im a 32c) i still find that theres not a lot of support in them and they just drag them down half the time! i want them the same height as they r in a bra with straps. After having 4 kids i need that support! lol i might have a look in la senza but they r a bit pricey though :/
As the beatles say, Love Is All You Need x
CommentAuthorSijen
Ooh will check her out then if the ones I've ordered are no good. Thanks hun. Yeah it was lovely to meet you too, just so busy I didn't have a proper chance to speak to anyone. The goodie bags were poo too! They were so much better last year. We have nothing to do with them luckily lol.

FutureMrsPite the one I got from La Senza was only £22 and its really pretty. I can honestly say too that it shoves them up as far as a bra with straps does, which is exactly why i bought it straight away without looking any further - air pockets are a wonderful invention ;o)
CommentAuthorSijen
Ok so my strapless "biggest bra in the world" came today. I'm a 34JJ and ordered a 34J and 36J to see fit. The bigger one is too loose and gives me no support. The 34J fits great, feels very secure BUT gives me a massively pointy Madonna chest. I would only wear it with my wedding dress which is boned and gives good support but I don't know what to do? The bridal shop said I do need a bra to keep them in place but will the stupid shape alter the fit or shape of my wedding dress?
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

Jen, the shape won't make any difference hun, its just a little extra support. The boning in your dress will properly shape the bra x

Cool thanks hun. That's where I got my bra from. It's so pretty and does keep the puppies in place lol. Im gonna go in to the shop tomorrow and check the boning in my dress again. It was good enough with just the straps on my everyday bra down just didnt want big cone boobs on my wedding day lol x

I think I'm going to order one from there as the bra I had made for me is padded and I'm worried its going to be too much padding for my dress and plus I don't need padding these bad boys are big enough!. When I tried my dress on the dress lady told me not to have a bra but I wanted that extra comfort, I don't want to bend over and they flop out lol x
