HELP! Plus size in strapless bridesmaid gown - need bra help

Yeah, I was a bride but took into account all the girls in my party before picking a bridesmaid dress.....my girlfriend picked a strapless t-length dress. Will look fabulous on the other 5 girls in the wedding party who are all over 5'6". Hi - I am 5'2" big busted (everyone in my family has them whether size 2 or 22!). I am already on weight watchers but this ain't gonna be good. Suggestions for bras....oh girls, I am gonna look like orca. 23 pounds gone and 50 to go....yeah, not good.

I am the same thing..I am going to be the only plus size bridesmaid and it is a strapless 2 piece..I am not looking forward to this..I am big busted also..I am going to need a good strapless bra also..The wedding I am in is in June..What about you?

Re: HELP! Plus size in strapless bridesmaid gown - need bra help

I wore a similar dress in a November wedding. I bought what I thought was a good bra (strapless longline) at Macys, but was in terrible pain before the reception even started. Believe it or not --- I went bra-less for the rest of the evening (I can't believe I am telling you this!!!!). My dress was well-fitted to me, so it wasn't a problem.

I have a DD chest and I got my strapless longline bra for my wedding at Mary's. One trick that one of the women at Bridal Reflections also showed me was leave the top hook in the back open - gives you some more breathing room and you don't get that roll-over of fat over the top!
