From an inventory perspective, bras are a nightmare. Way too many band and cup sizes to deal with. Much more of a specialty shop item.

For general shopping, Her Room is pretty good. Or else go directly to a site you know. For me that is usually Wacoal or Title IX.

@Still Raining

I was just thinking the same thing. And the returns must be a nightmare.

I will say the Breezies Wild Rose works for me. A few years back I tried another Breezies model but I ended up sending it back. They were gushing so much about the Wild Rose that I decided to give it a chance, and I like it as much as I can like any Bra. The are such a pain to find. Thank God for the internet. It was so hard to find my size in a brick and mortar.

I think it's too hard to buy a bra or underwear off of tv. I'd much rather buy locally.

I would at least like to see Breezies brand offer their sizes starting with 32. I really don't understand why this isn't part of their sizing considering lots of customers as well as hosts claim to need that size.

@cheriere I don't understand this either. I'm no longer a 32 band size but I am still an A cup which they don't offer. Consequently, I've never bought from this brand. Apparently, it's been no big loss since the reviews don't sound that great. I have ordered the Jockey brand bras they've offered in the past and liked them.

The Breezies bras I tried were never comfortable for me. The fabrications were inexpensive, which translated to discomfort in one way or another. I recently tried some of their pajamas. Same problem. Cheap and uncomfortable, so won’t try again.

QVC is great but if I need something now there are so many other sources.

Recently I asked the forum for shaper recommendations and Maidenform was suggested. Found a fantastic one at a great price on Amazon.

That got me thinking that I could use some new bras. Ordered a Maidenform from Kohl's as I knew if it didn't fit the store is very close by for a return if needed.

It was a great fit & price, have amassed quite the collection of the same one lol buying from Kohl's. Amazon then back to Kohl's when they dropped the price even further which was a great deal.

Added Rakuten to the mix when they had 10 or 12% rebate and they just about gave them to me for free.

I've never seen an A-cup offered.

@rockygems123 , I used to get my Maidenform bras from Kohls, but had to order online since they never had 36A, at least not in my style. Now, I can't even get my style and size at Kohls online anymore. Maybe Maidenform is discontinuing that style. :-( I did find my style and size at Amazon, but they didn't have it in black which I really want. I wear a lot of dark colors in winter.

I wish Breezes would sell the all cotton panties again. They are helpful.

Intimates are sold by countless retailers. Q couldn't compete with prices - they never do. I can find free shipping and free returns at many retailers so why pay those fees to Q?

@Icegoddess

That is frustrating when manufacturers change or discontinue a style.

Maybe they've made a similar one?

When I found these for so cheap - about $13 I ordered many, pretty much a dozen In darker colors too, black, bronze, navy.

@rockygems123 not sure. It would take some time to go through and see what they have and then determine they don't have those little pillows in them to push up/in. I don't want those. At least in the store I could feel them to see. Seems that's all people must want these days since the majority of styles the Maidenforms in the store had had them.
