I'm looking to buy a bustier to wear under my wedding dress, however I was not blessed in this particular area. I want to look like a Bride with boobs and not look like I'm 12 and playing dress up. Do you have any sugestions on decently priced bustiers, chicken cutlets or types of bras that will add much needed volume? Or is it better to have them sawn in?

BTW...My dress has a sweetheart neckline that is the fit and flare style in taffeta. Your help is greatly appreciated!

Being not very much endowed in that area myself, and discovering that strapless dresses make this even more obvious than other clothes, I purchased these clear silicone things from Nordstrom's lingerie department. Worked like a charm, without looking obvious! I didn't wear a bustier either; I chose a strapless, memory-foam bra also from Nordstrom to hold everything in place. =) Though I didn't use it myself, I've also heard good things about NuBra.

I was in the same boat as you with a small bustline and sweetheart neckline. I had the cups sewn in to the dress so did not need to wear a bra at all that day. The seamstress gave me a few options in terms of size, but we decided on something that wouldn't look weird since I wasn't well endowed on a normal day! I thought it was a great option and was really comfortable instead of all the strapless bra stuff.
