My bras are riding up in the back and coming down in the front.  Am I wearing the wrong size or style?  Would appreciate your feedback!  TIA!

Just my opinion but I think it sounds like more support is needed.  When I broke a rib, under my right breast, I purposely got bras much larger... I'm a 36C but the bras I got (and continue to wear) is a 40D.. I can adjust accordingly and my bra stays more in place now plus it's easier on the broken rib area which still gets sore..

A professional fitting might improve the situation.  I have one everytime I find that my foundation garments aren't as supportive as I'd like.

Sounds like the band size is too large

Your band size is too large, probably by a couple of sizes.  You really should go to a department store and get a fitting.  If you use a measuring tape right under your breasts, that is your band size.

@fortune I have that problem, too.  Unfortunately, I'm a 42DD.  Has ANYONE with a large b*st been able to find a comfortable bra?  I'm 67 and haven't found one yet.

Go to a store and get fitted. 

Now I go to Soma.  I always get a good fit there.

@brii I've been fitted.  I could try on 50 bras and none of them would be comfortable.

A good fitting bra will hold you up by the band alone.  No straps needed.
