Subject: Trying on dresses - what type of bra?
Hi Everyone

I'm a size 24-26 and getting married this coming November.

I have emailed HBB in Catford to see about going there one saturday & I also have found two shops locally (I'm in Essex) which stock sonsie by veromia dresses. I really like the Sonsie 9002 & 9010.

My question is what sort of bra shall I buy? I don't have hardly any good ones anyway so wonder if I should by a T-Shirt sort of style one, or something else? I've never worn a strapless bra!

Any guidance is appreciated

Tina x

Hi Tina

I have bought the 9010 dress, it's amazing! I can't buy strapless bras in my size and asked the lady in the shop for advice. If a strapless is not an option, you can still wear a normal bra and tuck the straps in... I have to be honest and say that I felt the dress itself held everything in place really well so I am going to try it braless when it arrives.
Another shop gave me an option of having a bra sewn into the dress - obviously they would take the straps off, but so you have the extra support.
Hope that helps!

Hi Tina.
I've also ordered the Sonsie 9010. It is a truly beautiful dress. I bought a bodysuit from M&S for dress fittings. I found it provided a good foundation under the dress and was padded to give a good shape at the bust. I was too shy to bear all in front of the dress shop assistants lol t is fantastic and am going to find one in ivory for the big day
