While this may be TMI, I wear a 34DD bra and am wearing a strapless dress to an upcoming wedding (and the rehearsal dinner the night before, different dress but still strapless). I spent 3 hours today at the mall trying to find a strapless bra my size, only to finally find one in a JCpenny catalogue, only to find on the website when I went to order it that they are out of my size. I am at my wit's end! Is there anyone out there the same size as me, with any suggestions? I even tried 36Ds and 34Ds to see if I could just pull it off, but there's just no way I can wear one that isn't my size. Especially strapless, my boobs just squish up and it looks ridiculous I'm trying to find one that goes down my whole torso, just because I haven't had luck with the regular strapless ones staying put in the past. But I guess I'm ready to buy anything at this point, with the wedding only days away (Friday)
TIA!

I think Nordstrom a variety of bras - you might want to also check out Nordstrom Rack I've seen a wide variety of sizes there too (and of course better prices).
I'm the same size and I've never been able to find a strapless bras in stores. I usually buy mine online. Try barenecessities.com or figleaves.com.-- Edited by jettie at 21:09, 2006-05-20
OH MY GOSH you just saved my life ten thousand times over. I'd never bought bras online before, so I was stumped after I visited all the B&M store websites I could think of, including Victoria's Secret (which I expected to be quite helpful, but was exceptionally unhelpful).
I found a perfect one at bare necessities, for $36 when I was willing to spend far more considering how much pain had gone into this quest. Also, I have fallen in love with figleaves.com. I thought that I was doomed to spend the rest of my days (and, perhaps more importantly, my evenings) in grandma-bra hell. Now I know it isn't so! WOO!
