I just got off the phone with my dress maker. I have a fitting next week and I need to have the right bra. everything I have tried so far has been too high under the arm. I need something that basically cuts straight down next to my breast (sorry for the detail) I have V's under the armpit (again, sorry) and can't have anything that will show!
and I keep saying to sew in the cups, but she is not liking that idea...

I do not understand why she can't sew in the cups. My designer suggested that if we needed to but luckily she only had to adjust the bra a bit. Try going to Macy's or Lord & Taylor.

Re: I NEED A BRA
I have a dress where wearing a typical bridal undergarment is impossible. I have to have cups sewn in. Stand your ground because ultimately, YOU have to be comfy.

Re: I NEED A BRA
Jess--there is a place in the city called The Brasmith. I don't have any other info, but my SIL had hers made there. They might be a little pricey, but worth a shot.

Re: I NEED A BRA
I agree w/the above - I'm going braless and having cups sewn in - no if's and's but's about it!
Finding a bra that you need that's comfy is going to be really tough, and when you do find one, it's going to be mucho $$$$$

I have also heard great things about Georgette's in Hicksville. Not sure if that is closer to you.

if you are bigger then a 'b' cup i would not suggest cups they have no support.
