Pants! (Well, bras actually)

Help! I need to find a purple strapless bra to go under my purple (plum) dress and I absolutely cannot find one...
I'd like a bit of a cleavage ;)

Any ideas? I've tried ebay, Figleaves, Bravissimo...

(Excuse the hair, but this is the dress)

    The panache inferno superbra was available in purple, i have one. The latest style has removeable straps.

    Check out fashionworld / naturally close, as Ms Metallica said, a corset might be the way to go, and i they have a purple gok wan one at the moment. The only thing about fashion world is i often have to try a couple of sizes before finding the right one. Check delivery costs as i think these have gone up, but returns are usually free.

    I have seen purple bras etc in Prmark - their bras aren't too bad either and they're cheap.

    Dress is fab by the way.

    I have Gok Wan stuff that's purple. They call that colour 'Passion' I think. Fabulous stuff, can definitely recommend it. Your dress is stunning. It's so romantic, with those floaty sleeves, gorgeous.

    You have to buy this.Buy it and try it at least,you can return it but I promise you will fall in love with this corset.The back is gorgeous too and you can change the ribbon to colour match your outfit better.Its cheap for a corset already at £45 but look for cashback or money off offers too.
    Gorgeous dress by the way.
