Bulit-in Bra in Wedding Dress?

Has anyone heard of this? I'm having problems finding a big enough strapless bra and I remember seeing an alteration price for 'bra' while trying on dresses.

Is this primarily for someone with maybe smaller chest who doesn't need support?

I bought a strapless Victoria's Secret bra (Sexy collection) and the seamstress buildt it into my dress. It's perfect because it's definitely my size and it's push up

try www.bigerbras.com
i ordered mine from there for my sisters wedding, its a long line strapless, they work the best if your chest is on the larger side. this website has soo many sizes. i actually ordered it larger in the back and im having the seamstress alter it so it fits me perfectly, and it gives you more room in the cup when you go up in the back. say if you wear a 36DDD you would get a 42DD and have it altered.

if you have a large chest i wouldnt reccomend sewing the bra into the dress, it will naturally pull the dress down in the front...
i hope this is understandable... i know it sounds likea bunch of mumbojumbo... ive had to deal with this my whole life, (well my whole matured life) im sorta an expert in the boobie field.

I am totally considering the built in bra thing. It sounds great and maybe comfy too.

Thanks for the tip on that biggerbras web site though! I may order from them!

Re: Bulit-in Bra in Wedding Dress?

How do you do this? You just bring your bra to the seamstress when altering your dress? I never even thought of that. I was picturing myself walking around all day grabbing my boobs and constantly picking up my bra! Hmm, that sounds like a much better idea!
