YES YES YES!!! Mary's is hands down the best out there for plus size people!! And when you go, ask for Chris...unless you have a cat bc she's highly allergic to it!

Me too! Haha... I don't even know if I need a bra yet. I assumed that they would put cups in, but now I'm not sure??

As I told my friend that hasn't NOTHING going on up top...there is not a shot in h3ll that cups were going to hold my girls in place!

I'm scared... do you think I will be able to wear a strapless dress?? Do the girls really stay up?

It has to have the right amount of boning or you could also use clear straps. I personally don't like the way clear straps look on me but it may work well for lighter skin tone

They are a little expensive, but it's worth it!! I've worn TONS of strapless bras and was always uncomfortable...the one I wore for my wedding was extremely comfortable because it actually fit me correctly!
BTW, you can totally wear a strapless dress if your larger on top. I have DD (pushing into the next size) and I wore a strapless dress. The correct bra and correct alterations are what matters!

Do you have to special order or do you buy off the shelves?

I bought my bra at David's Bridal where I got my dress. I am a 40DDD and they had one that fit. I could never wear it alone, but the dress held everything in place. It wasn't too expensive either. I have a large chest and I did the dancing and jumping up and down test in my dress with the bra and everything seemed good and that is even before alterations

If you're in queens - I went to Yvette Lingerie 4013 Bell Boulevard Flushing, NY 11361-2062 (718) 229-5724
I want to say I paid less then $60 for a bra/corsette combo
Make sure you try it on with your dress and SIT DOWN in it. I bought one from David's, but when I sat down in it, it rolled up. I had to throw a temper tantrum to get them to take it back.

Honestly, I got my strapless bra for $16.99 at Target! It has the double strap support (around the back) and is full coverage. Comes in a variety of sizes as well.Strapless Bra

I want more of a corset or long bra (are they the same?) to suck in the belly as much as possible!
