    Hello Bees! I am sure that I'm having an issue that many of you are dealing with too.  I need a backless bra!  My dress is very low cut in the back and it's impossible even to wear a low back bra.  So have you used any of these bras? Which would you are or are you getting? They are all from Victorias Secret. Thanks!

    I thought about that, but my dress is lace and I think you'd notice.

    you should ask at the place where you bought your dress and see what they say about sowing in bra cups. i would say either of the first 2 are good since they latch in the front giving you the extra push.

    I used one very similar to #1, but I purchased it on Amazon.com. It worked extremely well! It's so sticky, it's not going anywhere.

    For people who voted for the first.  Why do you prefer it over the 2nd and what's the difference? The 2nd you can change the amount of cleavage you want...

    The only difference I see b/t the 1st and 2nd is that the 1st is a push up and the 2nd is supportive.  Is that right? I just prefer support.  I dont want to be spilling out of my wedding dress!!!

    I'd go to a specialty bra store and have one altered to fit your dress. I've never tried the style of bra in your options because I know with 100% certainty it wouldn't do a thing for me. I don't even think they sell those in bigger than a C, so I don't know how much support those bras are capable of.

    I have the invisible pushup from VS. It's really pretty good. The adhesive has a lot of staying power and it does what is advertised. I'm a C cup too and it worked for me.

    I'm having cups sewn in, too.

    @zippeylef THANKS that advice helps! Does it push up too much? Does it give support?

    @zippylef 

    Did the push up push too much up? Or did it give a good amount of support? I am just scared that I will spill out of my dress!!!! And, is it comfortable?

    I am getting one from Vicki's too, but it's the U-Plunge backless bra. Have you seen that one?

    Yeah.  But my dress cuts VERY LOW like right above the butt nearly! LOL...OK not THAT low, but low enough that a low back bra doesn't cut it.

    oh I just looked it up! I didn't realize that was backless too!! What do you think the advantages of this one would be over the others?

    Hey CaitlinRivera, I was wondering if you have tried on your bra with your dress... I don't mean to pry too much but I too have a backless dress & am looking for a bra to wear with it. Any info would be great!

    Thanks!

    DO NOT buy the bra that has tape on the side!! I went to a wedding earlier this year and it kept falling off, i am also a C cup and it had no support. It was horrible. =(

    I had a hard time finding something- I finally got a VS 7 way bra with gel curve- I think it is called- but I have huge breasts, so I needed the support.  It goes around your stomach and lower back.

    I have a NuBra, it's like the first one pictured, and I loooooooove it. I would wear it every day if the packaging didn't clearly say it's not meant to be an every day bra, haha. It's super comfy, easy to wear/put on, and the shape is way more natural and flattering than a traditional bra.

    I bought it at Macy's and it's cheaper than the one VSecret has.

    @Mrs.G-McD: I had/have the same issue, not only with a BM dress I had to wear recently (ended up using tape...not fun), but also with my wedding dress (still undecided).  Here is a thread I started a while back.

    http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/please-share-experiences-with-adhesive-bras-good-or-bad

    @daydreamwanderer:  You may be the first person I've come across with a positive review of an adhesive bra.  Glad it worked out for you!
