Re: Solution to drooping bra strap mystery

Bra straps always seem to be too long on my small frame. I have to adjust them all the way to the shortest length and they're still a bit too long. I wish they would make bras for a petite woman. In other words, make the straps shorter and also make the cups closer together, with less distance between them.  Does that make any sense?

I’ve always had sloping shoulders. Racer back bras solved the problem for me.  Those falling bra straps used to really get on my nerves.

Yes!  I know exactly what you mean, @SilleeMee. (5’2” and shrinking)

I had the same problem and finally bought a couple of styles of Breezies that had padded straps and the straps set slightly closer to the neck. They are so comfortable and no more constantly lifting the straps back up on my shoulders. Also, the prices are so reasonable!Smiley Happy

@SilleeMeeI always hook my bra in front then put this on and turn around. I had a bra that the straps set too far out and this worked for me.

Re: Solution to drooping bra strap mystery

I'm still trying to figure out the vaseline thing, one would think it would make the strap slip more.  Exactly where do you put the vaseline?  Right under the strap, on the round top of the shoulder, where?
