to want to go around HOIKING up bra straps

[MaggieSultana]

you know those adjusters on a bra strap.

well they move.
i want to HOIK tits up back to rightful place

The world is full of ill-fitting bras...

My personal favourite is the 4-boobs effect you get from a bra which is clearly too small

Got to be honest, if you walked up to me in the street and 'hoiked' up my bra straps I would probably punch you in the face.

I also tend to not pay vast amounts of attention to other women's tits, and even if they were hanging around their knees it wouldn't bother me.

So YABU.

YANBU at all.

I often look at other women's boobs, mainly because mine are woefully inadequate and I'm jealous.

My bra fits properly tho, so hurray!

Bad bras.

And why do people buy those horrors with a horizontal seam across the tit? Or loads of detail that you can see through clothes.

Vile.

Thank you for making me smile

As a former lingerie fitter I completely agree. Having your boobs hoisted up actually makes you look thinner as a waist can finally be seen.

you'd better have strong arms, mine are by my knees Those bloody adjuster things just don't stay put!

i redo mine de temps en temps

I have to hoik mine and I don't have a great deal of weight in the breast dept.

I am with you on this. As a confirmed Rigby and Peller devotee I can spot an ill fitting bra from 100 paces.

You would be hald pushed to hoick mine up, once they are in my scaffolding for the day they go nowhere. I have "more than a handfull" so I need to make sure tehy are in the right place or I get cripplingn back ache.

Bad fitting, in my book is worse than no bra at all.

Do it... go on .... i dare you and report back what happened.

None of my bras fit properly at the moment .

Am BFing and my boobs appear to be changing shape from huge and full to depressingly flabby.

BUT last time I had them measured (M&S) she got my size completely wrong

Best place to go?

me too
infact i want to reduce the back strap on most people by two sizes so that it actually DOES ITS JOB and stits straight across the middle of the back

THEN i hoik up the straps and voila

amaaaaazing typo there

My no-tape-measure bra fitting lady says it's the round the chest bit that supports the norks, not strap hoiking.

Awesome typo Otter!

Breasts are nice. They are aesthetically pleasing, and nice to look at. So it's sad when they are abused and not looked after and don't look nice.

I don't measure myself, I go by the feel of the fit. Bravissimo has a good guide for fitting, and by using that, I dropped 2 back sizes and went up by 2 cup sizes. Back ache now a receding memory!

Suffering from lower than usual norkage at the moment due to heavy boobage - 3 bra sizes up and that's before the after birth milk even comes in. I'll be mooing by the time this is all over

Feeling very smug as I just bought some new bras yesterday and they fit really well!

Pegleg26 I just snorted my drink over the keyboard.lol
Bravissimo do great no tape fitting. Agree most need to down a few back sizes and up cup sizes.

i agree
and while you're at it , hoik up the jeans over the ass crack too

And if, like me, you don't fall into Bravissimos sizes, then I find that small independant lingerie shops do great fitting, and know how their stock will fit your shape.

If you are near bluewater Leia is v. good shop. Helpful staff, know what they are talking about (or they were when I went in last).

YANBU - I hate it too, but it is also weirdly fascinating . However, as the owner of a pretty mahoosive pair and one who conscientiously hoiks and re-hoiks, I do have two fairly deep grooves in my shoulders to show for my hold'em high stance, (not a good look )
