Need to Push Boobs Up for a Strapless Dress?

I’m having a slight dilemma now, in what to do to totally fill out and give a little cleavage too, in my strapless gown that I happen to be getting married in.  It’s an off white, satin gown, and it’s totally strapless, which usually happens to flatter me since I’m a small C cup, and my upper body does tend to look decent in strapless dresses, however, with the size I had to get, it’s a tad bit too big and gappy at the top, just a little shove up should do the trick.

However, I had the lady sew in some cups for a built in bra, and since I’ve been losing weight over the past few weeks, it’s going to be even looser, since we all know the first thing that goes when you lose weight is your boobs.  So, I’m trying to figure out the best way to get a little more push up on my breasts to make sure they totally fill this thing out. I went over my options, and here’s what they are.

I can use some tape to literally tape them up underneath my breasts.  I would probably have to use some sort of surgical tape though, so it would stick to my skin without constantly coming off.  I thought about this option, because I’ll only be wearing the dress for a total of about two hours most likely, but i worried that it would look, strange, so I kept looking for other options to make my breasts look as good as they could in a strapless dress.

The second idea I had was to use a pair of those chicken cutlet like inserts that are made of a silicone gel that instantly warm to your skin and mold to your breasts inside of a bra.  I had used a pair of these years ago, when I was in my best friend’s wedding and also had to wear a strapless bride’s maid dress back then.  They worked like a charm, but with this dress, I have a sewn in bra already, so I wondered if they would stay in my dress ok.

Since I wasn’t sure, I then tried to research other options, and I really didn’t find too many.  At this point, I’m going to hope that when I get the dress back from alterations (it had to be taken up a bit, was a little too long, that my muscle I’ve gained around my rib cage from working out like a maniac will help the dress stay up a bit better, ’cause my boobs may not do the job for me.  Either that, or I thought I might be able to stuff the pads a little bit more.  Ingenius!  I can sew a little myself!
