How Low Can You Go?

Mara Hoffman Deep V Neck Tie Waist Dress
Ever have a shirt with a deep v neckline and no matter which bra you put on, it never looks right? I have several dresses with plunge necklines and I used to just go braless (gasp!) but after nursing for 18 months, my girls aren’t as perky as they used to be.

I’ve been looking at lots of Spring fashions lately, hoping I could get my hands on something hot in case I go on another vacation before summer hits. One of the dresses I found has a super low neckline and I know my nursing bras are NOT going to cut it!

The dress pictured to the right is the Mara Hoffman Deep V Neck Tie Waist Dress from the Spring 2009 collection on Shopbop.

It’s totally seductive in that understated, retro-sophisticated way. I love it. But it begs for a unique bra.

Enter Fashion Forms U Plunge Bra

If your neckline goes down to there, this bra goes there, too. Padded underwire cups are designed to lift and shape. Straps can convert to criss-cross or halter.

This U-plunge is a convertible, padded bra. Constructed of stretch microfiber for all-day comfort and the padded cups provide enhanced cleavage. Pockets allow additional padding for greater cleavage. Stretch, fully adjustable thin straps so you can wear them with camis too. Convertible to conventional, halter, or criss-cross. Perfect for all special occasions.

The first time I tried it on, I mistakenly put it up too high and wondered why it fit so awkwardly. My husband took one look at me, another look at the picture on the package and then shifted it down about 2 inches. Suddenly, it looked and felt a LOT better! So be forewarned, it’s completely unlike a conventional bra and you may be tempted to wear it too high. Just pull it down an inch or two lower than feels normal and you’ll be wearing this bra perfectly.

Being a 34B (don’t tell!) I have pretty non-existent cleavage. Surprisingly, this is 1 of only 2 bras in the world that has ever given me cleavage. I’m on a quest to find more though!

This versatile must-have bra for your lingerie collection is only $28.00. Find this bra and a bunch of other essential undergarments on www.fashionforms.com

You can purchase them on popular website like BareNecessities.com or on Shop.com with ease.

Keep Fashion Forms in mind for all your special occasion undergarment needs. You’ll find exactly what you need to wear all the latest trends without compromising support or comfort!

    OMG this bra is awesome :) Specially designed for deep V neck tops and dresses??? Ok, really, it’s a unique design, but I don’t like it very much how it looks without the dress…I don’t think it’s a good idea to show it to your boyfriend :) ))
