I have a bit of an awkward situation!!!! I dont have a lot of size on my chest and have hit a bit of a snag. The type of wedding dress i have doesnt have shoulder straps and i dont have much to hold it up and yet dont want the dress too tight that im uncomfy. For my first fitting i need to go with a bra that i will wear under the dress. This is where im stuck. Most padded/gel strapless bras are gappy at the top, i dont feel safe or secure!!! Iv been to coutless bra fittings and cant find the right bra!! Many high street stores dont stock 30 inch chest bras :-(
Can any other petite ladies offer any words of wisdom?
Thanks

Do you mean like a bodice? And it doesnt alter the fit of your dress? i mean round the waist? x

Most dresses do actually come with thin spaggetti straps its just that the designers never show them in the photos. Mine actually comes with pretty beaded ones. You could always ask your shop if they have any spare as more than likely they will and ask them to sew them onto your dress.
Also my dress shop told me that they fit the dress to your body shape and as long as it is done properly then there is no gaps, falling down or anything it stays where it should.
Mine does as well. Although I don't want mine attached. Gem, I would suggest looking in places like La Senza, Debenhams, M&S. They all do bra's to fit most sizes. I have to use them for the larger bust, but my sister also uses them cos she wears a 30 as well. xx

how about a corset with some chicken fillets to boost the bust a bit? i dont know if they do a 30 but wonderbra have a fab bra where even if you jump you wont fall out s maybe that would help? x

Thanks everyone for your advice in this awkward subject i will have to experiment. I found this new wondrebra that had wires in the cups that can be bent in the right places so will maybe get chicken fillets and try that bra!
Thanks everyone x x

I am a 30 aswell and can't find the size in any shops apart from debenhams! The other places i've found it aswell is the asos website. It's really annoying aswell because when i find places that do start at 30 they only start at 'D's which would be lovely to have a slim waist and big boobs but this is not my case - i'm only a lil B lol. Hope you find what you're looking for x

Yes thats the only shop iv found bra's in my size and they had to hunt them out for me!!! I did try a wonderbra on in debenhams that was a 30 C so they are there we just need to hunt them out!! Chicken fillets all the way, tho iv never tried them!!! x x

If I use chicken fillets I always wear a padded bra and put them into the bit where the padding normally goes. (if you shove them they do go in) and then you could always sew the side up so you know they have no way of falling out.
