Default good bra

Okay so I got this amazing gucci-ish looking dress for a dinner party in a few weeks. My only problem is that it's VERY low cut....almost a kimono style...and I have a whopping pair of 34DDs. Does anyone have any suggestions for good U shapped plunge bras or stickies or anything like that? I have no idea where I would even get anything like that that would support me. Any suggestions will be welcomed. I work in CC and live in S. Philly so anything around those areas would be best.

Thanks!

I have a related question: where can I get a ticket to this dinner party — eBay? Stubhub? If I donate $500 to your favorite charity? (Sorry to interject, but I thought I’d mention what every guy who read your post just thought. Best of luck with your search.)

Actually I was thinking that I should offer a hand. Or two.

Doing a google search for "lingerie+philadelphia" or "bra+philadelphia"....




Sorry, got a little distracted. There's The Hope Chest in The Bellevue, they might be able to help.

Poor thing, you haven't gotten a serious response all day!

I haven't done any bra shopping in Philadelphia, but can recommend you get one of those corset type bras that is strapless and kind of fastens mid-back. I don't recommend stickys.. you'll probably be a bit uncomfortable with those. When I got married, I was initially opposed to a bra like the one I described, but learned they are actually very comfortable and do outstanding things for people's figures. I think Warner's makes a decent one that is seamless.

You failed to mention the color(s) of the dress, but I'm sure you already know what you want to match it with.

A loose camisole (silk/satin, not cotton) can also work for some dresses for the large-breasted that don't want to reveal a bra, underwire, or any straps. It will cover up enough cleavage that you won't stand out, but then it won't look like you came off the street because you're revealing a bra.

I'm a guy, so I'm not the world expert on fashion, but I've helped one of my ex-gfs from my early years with a similar prob. Do you have a pic or a URL of a similar dress so we can look at it?

Whatever you do, don't go for the "reinessancefest" boustie. You know, the ones where your bosoms are pushed up so high with that tennie-shoe lace that you can barely see anyone in the room because your **** are pushed up towards your eyeballs? Bad move.

Having 34DDs is only a nice thing... for like 1/100th of your lifetime. The rest of the time they're a PITA.

So my wife tells me about what happened today.
She was a block away from Chestnut and some guy walks up to her and says; "Do you know which way Chestnut Street is?"
The funny part is that the whole time he was talking to her, he was staring at her chest.

Her answer? "Well, it's not in there"

I love that woman!
