Re: Big-Bust Ladies: What Bra for the Wedding Day?

I am wearing a long-line bustier by Le Mysterie. It's great- it's soft so the bones don't dig in but it lifts and holds at the same time. It's expensive ($100) but totally worth it! I got mine at a specialty bra shop in the city but I know they sell them at Nortstroms.

Goddess is the best by far. I went to a place in Rockville Centre. The ladies in there were very nice.

Miriam's is good too, but it was a 3 hour wait to be fitted and I just didn't have the patience for that.

Can you tell me the name of the shop in the city? Thanks!

Can you tell me where Miriam's is and the name of the place in Garden City? I am on a mission!

The store is called Bra Smyth- they are on Madison Avenue between 72nd & 73rd on the east side of the street. The bra costs $110 there but they will do minimal alteraltions for free including tapering the sides (which I had done). They are great to work with- I highly recommend going there! It's expensive but well worth it! It comes in nude & white.
