need bra help!!

I am looking for a strapless, full torso corset-the kind that you wear like a body suit. I went to Blum's today and was told they don't make those in my size (34F).
Does anyone have any suggestions on where I could look next?
Any advice would be great!!

I was at Blums today too! I cannot find anything I like and may have to settle

Ugh-I know! I don't want a corset that falls at the waist in fear that my tummy will be bulging out and they seem to carry tons of those. I'd be settling and uncomfortable!!
The saleslady was kind of dismissive-I think because they were so busy.
I hope you find something too!!

It is funny you say that because I was there last week too and today and the womans attitude is horrible. Hope you find something comfortable!

Miriams corsettes is GREAT.. the sales ladies there are so very helpful, and they do alterations also for free, and they are inexpensive,. i got a full corsett for a wedding that was very pretty for 30$

Try Mary's Corseitry (sp?) in either Plainview or Woodbury. They custom make the bras and such to your specifications. I just got mine there and they were a huge help. I got a strapless corset to the waist. They are on vacation though from tomorrow until the 2nd week of August, but are worth it. They do the alterations on the bras while you wait. Good luck!
