Well what happened was the back of the dress was too low to do a strapless bra and I didn't have another $75-$80 to do the VS option after all the other wedding expenses. All the bridesmaids bought these things as JCPenny that look like the front of the bra with double sided tape on the sides so they hold the front bra in place. Well when we were getting ready it was really hot and an outside summer wedding. The bras didn't stick as well as we hoped and those of us with a sagging issue it wasn't making us perky. The dresses weren't fitted enough to help. We were worried the tape would come off during the ceremony as a couple of girls already did come off and they had to use extra of the double sided. One brave soul had heard of duct tape and decided to try it. It worked fabulously to hold the "front bra" at the level of perkiness you wanted. So one by one we all did it. It was hilarious to see us all being "taped" up. It wasn't too bad coming off but then I'm not a hairy person at all. Plus by the end of the night when we took the dresses off I had had a lot of refreshments- LOL
You all have given me some wonderful ideas. I think I'm going to try VS before doing the duct tape. I have some here and maybe I'll practice. The wedding is next year but we are ordering dresses soon and I want to have the boob situation under control:D before I get measured. Thanks again to all!!!!
