UPDATED: returned the dress. Big busted ladies - ever put cups in a dress? *updated with pics*

ETA: I returned it - I knew I would never be comfortable. Thanks for the help anyway!

I bought a great Jones NY dress, but its a halter with a split front top (shows a little - ok a LOT of cleavage). I can't wear a regular long line or strapless bra, because the middle bra piece that rests on the breastbone shows (too high).

I need something that separates (my girls are really close together) - I'm not worried about lift, because after my reduction, these puppies are right where they should be.

So if you've ever put cups in a dress - do the ladies stay put in there?

I could technically go braless, but I would absolutely not be comfortable doing that.

THANK YOUUUUU

Re: Big busted ladies - ever put cups in a dress?

my wedding dress has cups sewn in, but its also a corset build in (and the back of the dress is low, so the corset is too)

in my experience, cups alone has done nada!

thank you - but it can't have ANY top straps - the halter neckline is just beads.

Re: Big busted ladies - ever put cups in a dress?

have you tried the fashion forms? They are adhesives that cover and lift a bit. You can actually place them so you can pull the girls apart a little and up. They will also cover nips.

I use them under halters.
..or I go braless..I also had a reduction/lift. It's liberating!

Re: Big busted ladies - ever put cups in a dress?

do you have a pic of the dress?
How supportive is the material of the dress?
If you had them lifted, why do you really need anything?

I had cups sewn into my wedding gown and it was fine for the entire day.

That's the problem. It doesn't lay flat.

But if you are too self conscious, what about stitching it up a little and see if you feel more comfortable?

i think thats a great idea! I would close up a little of the bottom to make the boobie opening smaller.

Try it and let us know how it goes. I had a friend do that with a dress and it looked great.

I know what you mean about finding a good dress. Whenever I buy one I always first think about "what bra will I need for it"Chat Icon

Thanks for the help, but I returned the dress. I just wasn't feeling it. Chat Icon But I did find a GREAT Evan Picone (for less $$$!) - also chocolate brown. I'm happy!
