Reviews please! Stick on bras

Ok so I have been seeing these things ALL over Facebook and am wondering if anyone wore something similar for their wedding or at all, really.

Ok so I have been seeing these things ALL over Facebook and am wondering if anyone wore something similar for their wedding or at all, really. My dress has a keyhole back so normal strapless bras are out. I met with my seamstress a week ago and this is the only thing I am concerned about. The bust is being taken in a little but offers ZERO support. Even with sewing in cups it isn't really going to lift like a bra would. These bras look promising but need advice! I'm a C cup.

    I'm a D cup, and I just get the sticky nipple petals from Walmart. They're easier to use than the full cup stickies.

    ETA: Sticky bras don't really lift much at all. If you want lift you'll need to find a low back traditional bra.

    The sticky bras aren't great. I actually have been really fond of Nippys though. Just sick on little cups for your nipples. I feel so free.

    Be careful with sticky boobs. Any amount of sweat will cause them to loose that sticking magic they have. Maybe look for an adjustable "low back strap" that literally lowers the back strap of your bra!

    I've worn one once for an event years ago, and the sticky bra fell off at the end of the night! It seems I was too sweaty for it to stick! My advice? If you're going to wear one, just make sure you don't have a summer wedding or you don't frequently sweat.

    I second Perky Pear tape! It is AMAZING!! www.perkypear.com

    use it all the time and it is new to this yea, honestly a game changer! Goes up to a G cup and they actually model and show real before and after results on the site and reviews under the products.

    Would not use anything else now this has literally changed my life!

    Hey guys so I bought a NuBra and it's awesome! I test drove it at a wedding as a guest and it lasted all night through dancing and sweating and there was zero fidgeting with it! I definitely recommend. However, my wedding dress had a low sweetheart neckline, and you could see the top of the NuBra. So Perky Pear tape wouldn't have worked either. I ended up having my seamstress sew cups in, but she wasn't able to take in the dress at the bust. I should have tried another seamstress but at that point I was running low on time. I ended up wearing my dress without any kind of bra and it was so uncomfortable! I had to be very careful all evening to not flash people, as my dress was gaping in the bust. I tried double sided fashion tape, but it popped right off of my skin after pictures. All in all I mainly attribute this issue to the fact that my dress had a large keyhole back, so there was no support around my back, the dress having zero structure or boning (which was actually one of the things I loved about it, it wasn't heavy or bulky), and not being able to alter the dress effectively. The boutique where I bought it said that it could be altered, but they didn't have an actual seamstress on staff, so I didn't know until after I bought it (on sale off the rack, so non-returnable). Still, it was a gorgeous dress and the rest of the day went perfectly. I guess moral of the story is make sure you have a seamstress analyze the dress before you buy it!
