Ok, So I dont know much of anything about anything.But, I have big boobs, basically. Like 38DD/DDD.Now, I'm hoping to lose weight obviously before the wedding, but I'm assuming my boobs aren't going to change THAT drastically.Can I go strapless with my dress? Is there any way for me to make that work? I've never had luck with strapless bras, they really just don't work for my size. So I'm not sure how I go about this. What goes under my dress?! haha. Thanks!

    hey there! i am also a bigger chested girl- i had a corset bodice and i didn't even have to wear a bra! although, i did wear a crinny i believe it's called, to keep me smooth under the dress. I am also one who isn't successful with strapless bras, and the crinny worked out perfectly.  the dress was strapless too.  So, if you're going corset, don't worry about your chest- they can easily tighten up that puppy!I also lost 15 lbs from when i bought the dress to my wedding.  My seamstress was able to take in my dress no problem! have fun shopping!

    I have a large chest too, (but not quite are large as you :)) try a strapless sweetheart neckline. I found that a regular strapless made me look like i had one giant boob lol

    Maggie Sottero dresses are mostly all corset back dresses, and they can cinch you in there and hold everything in, no matter what the size.  I love mine cause I don't have to worry about anything moving.... at all. : )  I am not planning on even wearing a bra with mine.

    If you find a dress you love, they can usually make a zip/button up back into corset if needed. Ask your bridal store or seamstress if this is possible... it will broaden your choices in dress.

    I agree with Jsantilli that a corset back really helps! Two of my REALLY well-endowed BMs had corset back strapless gowns for their weddings. I think as long as the front comes up high enough and you're not spilling out, you can definitely rock a strapless stress without a strapless bra. GL!

    I am rebelling against the current strapless trend and wearing a beautiful short-sleeved gown with a square neckline.  I am 44DD and do not want to be worrying all night that my tits will pop out of my gown!  Also, I never had any desire to wear a strapless gown.  But that's just me.  GL.

    I'm not as big as you, but I wear a D-cup and HATE the way I look in strapless dresses. I was happy to find that many Watters dresses had styles with straps.But if strapless is what you want, the correct size and fitting will make it all come together perfectly. Good luck!
