I had my first fitting, and God bless sew-in cups!!!

Well, my first fitting didn't go as planned because the crinolines they ordered all came in a different size. They store owners were PI$$ED!!! They said they've been using the same style number for months, but all of a sudden the company changed somehow and they were all way too poofy. Because of that, I couldn't get my length measured. So I have to go back in 2 weeks... Anyway, the upside is that they were going to take in the top part, but I asked if I could try the sew-in cups... and holy COW! I'm a B-cup, so when they put them in I was like VAVOOM!! I couldn't believe I actually had cleavage. My FH is going to freak when he sees me! My mom kept laughing at me because I was in such a state of shock!

So I'll update you again once the right size crinoline comes in! I'll try to get pics!

I want to do sewn in cups!!! Do they feel like they support you like a bra. I want to be a little bit bigger for my wedding. How did they cost if you don't mind?

They didn't cost a thing! And I wouldn't necessarily say they feel like support either.... a little bit, but not like a bra. But it's WORTH IT!!!

I am sewing in cups too. It is much more comfortable also....and yeah, they make you look like you went up a size. Who doesn't love that!

Ooookaayyyy. I don't need any more support in my dress because honestly, don't have much to support, but if cups make me look a bit bigger, I'm ALL FOR IT!

Where can I get them??? I know my seamstress will put them in, but I'll have to purchase them first.

I didn't buy them, I said that I wanted to try them and then the seamstress came out holding a pair. She pinned them into my dress, and voila! When I got back for my next fittings they will be sewn in. All I'm being charged for is the alterations.

I LOVE Lidia's Bridal! They are sooooo compensating and lovely to work with.

Can you get those cups if you are a D size or am I better off with the corset?

OMG Jill - this post is so funny. I can't wait to have cups sewn into my dress. I have heard they are very comfy!!!

Re: I had my first fitting, and God bless sew-in cups!!!

Sounds good to me! I want to cups too!
If you get the cups, do you still have to wear one of those uncomfortable corset thingies? Or can you just go without anything? Thanks

I have cups in my dress. I'm a small B cup, so they doubled my cups because my dressin the middle was caving in, so they worked their magic and it looks like I have boobs. So I second GOD BLESS SEW-IN CUPS
