Long line bra/bustier recommendation

Ok, I have been searching forever for a bustier to wear under my gown.  I wanted to share with you girls a few places that I found them:Macys- they had the biggest selection for a department store.  The lady that I was working with wasn't very knowledgeable and/or helpful.Niemann Marcus- they only had one style, and the saleswoman was not helpful at all.Nordstrom- hit or miss.  I went to one in Woodfield, and they did not have any at all.  I went to the one in Oak Brook mall, and they had one.Firm Foundations (strip mall behind Yorktown mall)- small, hole in the wall place, but very friendly service.  Their inventory was small, so they didn't have my size, but she recommended another place for me to go.Central Foundations- Berwyn location on Cermak and Oak Park Ave.  This is where I found my foundations.  Susan was amazing, and she knew exactly what I needed and was very friendly.  The prices were good, even though the sales tax is a whopping 10%!Good luck!!!

    You know, I take that back, the lady at Macy's was helpful, but she was the only one in the department, and it was really busy.  I kind of felt bad for her, actually.I just tried my dress on with the bustier, and it looks great!  Plus, I did the whole boobie shake in it, and the girls are good to go!

    Thanks for the great run down on places and the tip! I'm definitely going to check out Central Foundations as that's close to where I live.

    Check out Intimacy too girls.  That is where I got mine.  It is in water tower in the city.  They specialize in bra fitting and they have many  many selections

    I went to Central Foundations today after reading the reviews on here and they were great! She found me exactly what I needed and was very friendly. I highly recommend them!
