Big Busted Support

Where did you girls go to get your undergarmets?

I'm a 36 DD and need to figure this out before my dress alterations :)

    I know a lot of girls regardless of size get their cups sewn in to the gown. This is a good option if your dress already has a corset/bustier style bodice, since that should have all the sucking in-ness you'll need. Having the cups sewn in allows for more comfort and you won't feel as bulky.

    If your dress is not as form fitting at the top, there's lots of options out there! I know Nordstrom has some good stuff, and their staff is very knowledgeable. Some bridal shops also carry undergarments, but I'm not so sure about selection. Some gals have bought stuff online, but for something like this, I think its better to try on first to make sure it'll work with your dress.

    As far as undies go, my mom got me some cute Hanky Panky undies that have "bride" written on them in blue rhinestones, so I'll probably wear those.

    I agree with Nordstrom, also Macy's they have really good bras and in sizes that most places won't carry. I'm a 32D and can rarely find that size at most stores.

    For undies, my FMIL got me a bunch of cute undies for me last week that were only $.99 each at Herbergers and there is a really cute pair of lacey blue ones that I decided to wear for the day of.

    I haven't been there yet, but I'm going to go next time I'm back in MN. I'm a 34DD/34DDD, and cups just won't cut it. I need more support than that! :)

    I'm going without.  I'm a 36G, and with a bra my boobs are pushed up to my chin.  And because of the strapless and cut of the gown I can't really wear the usual air raid shelter bra.
