Boob Jobs are on the rise
The number of women having boob jobs before their wedding day have risen, according to cosmetic surgeons.
Brides are apparently opting for the procedure more than ever before, with the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons saying that the number of women having the surgery has risen by 30 per cent, from 6,487 in 2007 to 8,439 last year.
In addition to this, one leading cosmetic clinic has reported an increase in breast augmentations by 75 per cent since January, and shockingly 60 per cent of those, were doing it specifically to look good in their wedding dress, reports Marie Claire.
Wedding planners have reportedly said that the demand for the boob jobs is down to the fact that wedding dresses can be unforgiving at times, and can draw attention to flat chests.
Maria Yiannikaris, owner of the Mirror Mirror bridal shops in North London, told the Daily Mail: "Girls say, 'I need to wait for my fitting', then turn up later with very high and firm breasts.
"What we have seen in the past two years is what we call catwalk glamour gowns. We have a lot of slimmer, slinkier dresses in stock at the moment.
"Ten years ago you could not use the word 'sexy' in the same sentence as 'bride' - it was not considered appropriate - but now most brides want to show off their figure."
