Ahh bra size question

HappyDaze · ‎06-13-2012

Does anyone know what size a 32D would wear? The size chart is no help as a 32 shows both XS and small. A person in the reviews says she is size 12 and wears the medium which makes me think a 32D would probably wear the XS? I wear the XS/S in the Genie bra and it fits perfectly. I've never tried these bras but thought I would give them a try.

TIA for any suggestions.

I would also like to hear comments regarding sizing with these bras......I'm a Genie Bra fan and I hate that the Q doesn't have them anymore......I do have a supply of them right now, but I'd like to see if the Ahh is comparable in comfort and fit.

yeah QVC had great prices on them and I liked the color options. The genie bra website is a PITA and never has the sizes I need in the colors I want. It seems like they are on the way out or something because they haven't restocked colors/sizes on their website in months, if not a year now.

D cups go up a size.

There's not that much difference between a XS and Small but I would go with the Small just due to the cup size needed.

I love the Ahh bras and pretty much live in them and the Rhonda pin up leisure bras so here is my input: Rhonda has recommended going up a size if you are a D or larger:and I have found this to be true (and I tried the medium in the leisure bra and got pretty smushed). I wear a 36DD in Wacoal and Olga traditional bras and a L or XL in the Ahhh. I wear the same sizes in the Genie. But, I do not like a really tight bra and that is why I have the L and XL to wear depending on what top I am wearing. I was measured as a 34DDD at Dillards, but find that uncomfortable. Hope that gives you some idea of the fit.I am 5'2".

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

@HappyDaze Although I wear a much larger size (40DD size 14)I can wear a L, XL or 1X in Ah bras so I would think either shoud be ok. Genie bras didn't work for me as even the largest size was way too tight.

For anyone my size and up-38G suggest Walcoal. Brand has every kind of bra for your needs. After several attempts trying brands including Ronda's, I stopped the insanity! I Have sleeping bra's. Can't say enough wonderful things about, Wacoal. Except!! Never plan to be without. Remember! Rotate bra's daily. Never wear the same bra two days in a row, Bra's need to rest and rejuvenate.😊

Rhonda always says that with her bras, you shop your top size. Cup size doesn't matter. So if you take a size small in a top, you take a size small Ahh bra.

I haven't found that to be the case. I am a size large top and I needed to go up to a 1X in the Ahh bra.

Genie bra also says to size up if your are larger than a c cup but I found that the larger size was too loose. I haven't ever watched any of her presentations (I generally don't watch any shows except the occasional beauty show). The smallest size in the genie bra works really well and doesn't make me pour out- it covers everything but also gives me support. I don't use the modesty pads though. I think if I did it would be a tighter fit. I think part of the hard part for me is that my shape doesn't really fit the mold, so to speak so it is hard to get the right fit.

I am going to try the 5 mystery pack using the $10 off coupon so it is only like $27 for all 5 so even if they don't work out, I can use them around the house or something and am not out much.

I saw some of the wacoal wireless bras at Macys and they were really pretty. I plan to take some time to go try some on as I love pretty bras and need some new ones. It looks like they make some nice workout bras too so I will have to check those out. I truly despise wires, so I am glad they are making some nice bras for larger cups without having to use wires but still getting the support we need!

@HULAGIRLI just got my order and the xs is a perfect fit for me so glad I got that size! I have only worn one for a little bit but from that experience, I almost think I like them better than the Genie bras in terms for fit but I need to wear them longer to be sure. I do like the little bit of detail some of the Genie bras whereas the Ahh bras are pretty basic. Not a big deal though. I got the mystery 5 pack for like $29 so it was a steal and I like every color they sent. Almost thinking to buy another set if they still have them.

HTH!
