Why can't any of these gorgeous dresses have DD cups? This is a perfect style for a voluptuous dancer. But why is it that they are always B cups?

Ladies,

We need some sort of DD buying club. Maybe the next time Catherine Barros goes to Cairo we can commission her to bring us all back some DD lovelies!

There is a group of three Joharah dresses of similar cut on ebay sold as troupe dresses. They look to be off white with gold and copper decorations. Hip measurements sound promising but no mention of bra measurements.

Yes! It might even be possible to through Joharah herself -- though Catherine would be a great personal shopper if she could be persuaded to take this on!

[theesfield]

I third or fourth that suggestion! Although, Im lying if I call myself a DD. (coughGcupcough) I just want a pretty dress that celebrates my curves that doesn't come in purple makng me look like Grimace from the hamburgler crew....

Yeah, technically that "DD" has a multitude of other letters hiding behind it, doesn't it? It should read "DD*!"

With the * standing for "and up 'cause you wouldn't believe me anyway and it's too hard to explain and yes bras do really come in those other letters so please shut your mouth and wipe your chin."

[theesfield]

Hahahaha! I love that! I just recently found out that I was a G cup. I was like..what does that even mean!?!? G stands for: Gawd Dayum!!!!

I have been a praying for ages, but he hasn't heard or is just not listening to me- maybe I haven't yelled out loud enough!

What would be really nice would be if they made some of these dresses without bras so you could wear yoiur own or sew your own bra in. Some dresses have bras that are easy to remove because the decoration is not sewn through the cups. That would be great too. Love this look on this teal dress. So flattering to a curvy figure. Maybe the fix for this would be to either make the dress myself or get an Lrose flared beledi dress with sweetheart neckline and sew a bra into it and decorate.
