Hi everybody. I'm Erin and I'm a fashion stylist. I think a low cut dress can look sexy and sophisticated as long as you're wearing the right bra. Nothing ruins a sexy look faster than a not so sexy bra peeking out. Our model Brittany can show you the perfect for a low cut dress. This is the u plunge bra appropriately named because of the dramatic u shape in the front. That enables you to wear plunging necklines without losing or sacrificing your regular bra support and coverage. The bra is padded with inserts that can be removed. It also has convertible straps that you can switch to halter or criss cross style. Now, let's try a dress over the bra to make sure it works. This is a very sassy bright pink and black Dolce & Gabbana dress. As you can see, no sign of a bra. She could even go lower on the neckline and still be o.k. To find a bra like the u plunge, I suggest going to the closest major department store or of course shop on line. And like any bra, it's important to make sure you have the right size. So, be sure to ask for help if you need it. If you are smaller chested, lie an A or B cup, you can try he stick on options, usually called breast petals. These won't give you as much support, but will cover your nipple area. Bottom line, don't shy away from an amazing dress just because of the neckline. There's always a simple undergarment solution.
