I agree. I wouldn't even think of sleeping in a traditional hook and eye bra when Genie/Ahh Bras are available out there.

Another vote for the Genie bra for sleeping. It doesn't do much for you during the day if you're busty, but it's a great bra to sleep in.

I sleep in my Ahh bras. They are super comfortable. I would not sleep in a regular bra. Bra fitters say to hook in the first set of hooks so you can adjust as the bra stretches.

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

your bra should be on the last hook, the one that makes it the biggest when you buy it because it will loosen and then you move on to the middle...

This. This is how a new bra should fit. As it stretches out a bit you can move it to the tighter hooks.

That is what the gal at Neiman Marcus told me .... and NEVER buy bras with straps that stretch, because if they do, your b o o b s will sag as the elastic breaks down and stretches even more. ${#emotions_dlg.scared}$

Thank you all for posting and I appreciate all your replies .I have the Genie Bras and I don't one like the material and second in this weather they cause me to perspire. I also like the hook closers over putting on over head. I do have two sets of Bra Extenders which I do use with my Bras I presently use. I will address the I sleep in my Bra is simple because my Son 24 lives here and my Grandson 13 stays here. I feel more comfortable wearing a Bra to sleep in. Thanks for the replies. I think I'm going to visit Dillards where I purchased my Bra I sleep in now. I was even going to purchase a 40 D and VS said not to because then due to stretching the bra would be too big.

I have maybe 30 bras from many lines. There is only one that doesn't have stretch straps, they just don't seem to be that common.

If I was going to get a bra to sleep in I would probably try one of the ones from Rhonda Shear. I really like her underwear & have started to think about trying some of her bras for wearing around the house under my lounge wear.
