What bra did you/will you wear with your dress?

topchef33 · July 2010

I'm going to try on dresses next month and I want to get a new strapless bra to wear (I need a new one anyways). I usually hate wearing them b/c I always end up having to adjust myself, but maybe I'm just not buying the right bra.

When I was in my friend's wedding the strapless bra under my dress made the fit so tight that I ended up buying those stick on bra cups that look like chicken cutlets lol. I guess that could also be an option.

What did you wear w/your dress or what are you planning to wear?

Mine wasn't strapless, so I just wore a normal bra. Don't spend too much on a new strapless before you try on dresses, because you made need a specialty bra, and many brides just have cups sewn into the dress.

When I went shopping I took my own strapless bra because I don't like the long lines at the store. I feel they made my chest more enhanced, which I DO NOT need help with, and the dresses fit funny. I ended up going with a dress that I can't wear a bra with so I will be getting cups inserted for added support. After trying on different styles of dresses I would recommend just getting cups sewn into the dress. It is one less thing to remember on your wedding day and is easy breezy.

I wore this:

It was pretty comfortable. Didn't bother me at all.

I'm wearing a long line bra with wire throughout the waist. I normally have problems with strapless bras/dresses, but haven't since I bought this bra at the bridal store.

I wore the long-line bra David's Bridal had me try it on with. I was going to find something cheaper and/or cuter, but ran out of time so I bought it.

If you go to David's bridal they have you try on a bra and petticoat with the dresses. I just went ahead and ordered those with the dress. I know they fit/work with the dress and I don't have to run around to other places trying to find something. I personally hate bra shopping.

I bought the longline bra that I tried my dress on with at David's.

I didn't wear a bra.. But I had straps sown in to hold me up (and theres a lot to hold up!). It actually worked really well. When I went for my fittings I just wore my most comfortable bra

I couldn't find a bra that had a low enough back for my dress, so I had to go for the cups sewn in. I'd prefer a little more lift, since I'm kind of larger-chested, but I'll try to work that part out later.

I didn't wear a bra when I tried dresses on, and had the cups sewn into the gown I purchased.

I am going with cups put in my dress (it is a halter dress) but underneath I am wearing a body magic corsette.

I did not wear a bra either, just had cups sewn into my dress. It was great not to have to worry about my bra falling down or sticking out of my dress.

kbmeow · July 2010

I went to lady grace and had the fit me ( I guess I was wearing the wrong size bra) But I cought a long ling that goes to about the waist with boning. It is realy nice

You probably are wearing the wrong size strapless bra. Since you're in Chicago, I'd head to Intimacy (they're on Michigan Ave) for a good bra fitting

I'm also having cups sewn into the dress. How tacky to have a bit of bra show at just the wrong moment. Yikes!

parker624 · July 2010

I wasn't going to wear a bra, but then when I went to my first fitting the dress was so huge on top even taking it in won't help enough for support, so I am wearing a Wacoal strapless. It fits great!
