Women's Carnival 206 Invisible Plunge Longline Bra (Black 38C)

I saw the only review was a one-star review after I had already bought it, but decided to give it a try. My wedding dress has no boning but a super low back, not ideal for a strapless backless bra because nothing would support from underneath. This was THE ONLY bustier style I could find with a low enough back for my dress while still pushing up from below. When I got the bra, it looked pretty low-quality like the other reviewer said but I decided to put on the dress just in case. The boning on the sides under the armpit bend really easily, causing a visible pooch under my dress, so I think I'll take those out entirely. I usually wear a 34 DD but ordered a 34 D, and it fit fine through my chest. The part I don't love is that it is really really tight on my low back/belly and pushes my belly down, causing me to want to double up with some spanx, which I would have been fine without otherwise. It fits better under my dress when I pull it down lower than I would normally wear a strapless bra on my chest just so that more of my tummy is inside rather than being pushed down. In total I think I'm going to opt to make it work rather than sew in cups to my dress, and with the dress on it mostly looks fine if I took the side bones out and get lower-tummy shapewear. It looks way better on my body with the dress on than off though, and if it wasn't my best option, I wouldn't pay the $50. Definitely wouldn't splurge if it wasn't for a wedding.
