1. in the end it's your choice. if you feel like your dress can cover and support you the entire time, then go for it. if you want more support/not worry about any malfunctions, wear one
2. If you're a c cup you need to wear a bra. Padding doesn't offer support or position you so that the dress fits correctly.
3. If you are over a B cup, you need a bra - or have one sewn into the dress. Any see thru dress needs a bra no matter how big boobs are.
4. It's always a good idea to be wearing something just to have some kind of support. They have strapless bras, backless bras, adhesive bras, etc.
5. Hey Kimmie, no, you definitely don't 'need' to wear a bra. In fact nobody 'needs' to wear a bra - they're not a legal requirement, they serve no medical or health purpose - they're just an item of clothing you can choose to wear, or not, as you wish. I understand that's not quite what you mean, but people make way too big a deal over this sort of thing. Many dresses look better without a bra - you NEVER see a bra on the catwalk or at a movie premier and that's because they're really not terribly nice to see (or see hints of) under a dress. If the dress completely hides any hint of bra, feel free to wear one if you like. However if in doubt, go without - you'll always look good! :)
