looking for a good bra (again)

[sueb]

I posted a thread like this before and I found bare necessities (thanks ladies). But that site is blocked for me now and I can't remember any of the other great suggestions from last time. My problem is (relatively) small rib cage with too much on it. Looking for 32JJ or 32K. Any suggestions would be helpful; thanks again ladies.

What a coincidence.. you know my hands are K sized? I could just walk behind you...

if only that were practical

Re: looking for a good bra (again)

size K? :blink:

[sueb]

Re: looking for a good bra (again)

yep.... I wish I could get a bra with the right being JJ and the left being a KK (starting to come out of the top.) I've seen sizes advertised to 'M' but not listed when you get to the ordering step.

Holy oly! I have no suggestions, but good luck! I was coming here to complain about my Gillian whatever bra because the underwire popped out mid shift leaving me being poked for three hours.

Thanks. And I hate when that happens; I sew up the little hole and that darn wire pokes back out. Hence the need to find another bra.
When I sent out this request a few years back I got suggestions about a few websites. I just wish I could remember the names; they were kind of funny, too, like "twoscoops.com."

Let me ask Princess Picard. She's top heavy too and knows a few good sites that might help you.

I found the first thread you made about this, if this helps. All the info should be there.

Thanks samsma!!!
So far I found "Freshpair" website (I told you the names were funny), but they only have ones up to 32H.... I'll keep looking.

Thanks again, samsa!! I forgot how funny that thread got.

Re: looking for a good bra (again)

Your welcome! Glad it helped! I remembered it's first run (and all the comedy) so I did a search.
Good luck!

Re: looking for a good bra (again)

I'm not top heavy, but I have the issue with one of my "girls" being slightly bigger than the other. A B cup is too small for the bigger one and a C cup is too big for the smaller one. I talked to someone at Victoria's Secret about it and they showed me these silicon inserts that are made to give you some lift. I just use one on the smaller side and a C cup now fits me perfectly. Hooray! And you just hand wash these things with water and a mild soap and then let the air dry. I don't feel so lop-sided anymore. :lol:

Re: looking for a good bra (again)

Did anyone see that Tyra show last week about boob size? I think the men on it were the biggest boobs.

(and no, I don't watch Tyra...it was on the tv when my kid was getting her hair cut)

Re: looking for a good bra (again)

Ah, I feel your pain, I'm between a 36 DD and a 38 DDD depending on the store and it's brain damage even at this size to find anything. You'd probably be much better off going to a special bra maker, my friend did this and she's not even more than a G, probably less.

It tends to cost like $400 per bra but it's worth it as they make one designed specifically for you, meaning one cup can be JJ and one can be KK.

Based off your location I did a quick search for "bra" on here, if none of the results are specialists try different searches or call around and see if anyone knows of someone.

Thanks for doing the search. It would be nice to get a perfect bra, but even the really well built ones don't last long enough to justify $400 for me. Usually the wire poke out after about 6 months and no matter how many times I stitch it back together.....
My quest continues...

Re: looking for a good bra (again)

I ordered my standard and am trying a new one from barenecessities. I like my standard but it has embroidered flowers all over it so a smooth shirt/blouse or sweater doesn't work. The last time I tried a new one it was 3 inches too small even though I ordered the same size in the same brand.... so I am trying a bigger size. I will let you know what happens because I know you all are dying to hear all about it.
