Do dress designers know that women have boobs? Spend any amount of time shopping for a special occasion gown and you might really question the design world's familiarity with female anatomy, and bust size of the average woman, because so many dresses are bra-unfriendly.
Women with a large cup size will often avoid strapless gowns, but actually, it can actually be one of the more flattering styles to wear if tailored with cup inserts and a tight fit to hold everything in place. And if that doesn't do the trick, we asked our community which strapless bras have proven most effective and comfortable—should such a thing actually exist. Here are the fan favorites:
