Re: Recommendations for bras

@smoochy 

 

the bra I purchased at A isn't showing up for me but it is a front close unlined cup lace by DELMIRA. 
I have been surprisingly pleased with it. 
At the time, they did not offer my size (38B) in the style so I purchased a 38C. It works out just fine.

Re: Recommendations for bras

I like Bali's Comfort Revolution front closure bras, product #3P66. They're underwire, come in a variety of sizes & colors and are very supportive. I've gotten them from Her Room and Amazon, but I'm sure they're widely available. They're reasonably priced, too.

Had a quick photo taken in Bucc-ees today with the mascot. (Fun road trip with hubs) Was appalled when I saw it! My boobs were sagging, looked completely unsupported, splayed out to the sides. I can't keep trying to get away with so called comfort bras. I need underwires and full coverage support. My breasts are very heavy so padded straps would be good too.

Looking for brand suggestions available at brick and mortar stores so that I can try on. Price isn't a factor as I'm willing to invest in good quality. 
FYI I've had a bra fitting. I wear a 40D. Tia. 


shout out to Bucc-ees, never heard of it until my daughter sent me a pic with the mascot

Re: Recommendations for bras

I have had the best luck with Walcoal styles 85154, 855303

 

I also recently ordered from Amazon Bali Women's Comfort Revolution Front-Close Shaping Underwire Bra, and I like it, but sizing was a bit off for me. So if going into a store to try, it is comfortable and supportive.

Re: Recommendations for bras

I've been to at least three places to get fitted for a bra and each time it was a different size and that wasn't because of any weight gain or loss. I gave up and eventually found one that fit me. I'm a very small-framed person with large cups so it was a challenge. Ended up with a Warner's Tailored Underwire. Can't believe it's an underwire b/c it's so comfortable. Never had one like it ever before. That bra is also called "This is Not a Bra".

 

What I like the most about that bra is that it has a small amount of extra cushion on the bottoms of the cups, almost like a mini push-up cushion down there, and it gives my girls just the right amount of lift to where they used to be years ago. I adore this bra.

Texas based chain, expanding into other southern states. It's unique and awesome. This is how popular it is: our Governor just announced a third new Buc-ees coming to Florida. He tossed out beaver nuggets to the crowd at the press conference 😄😂
