Right, i want a strapless bra that doesn't squeeze me to within an inch of my life nor leave my boobs hanging down to my belly.

I am a 36 C or D cup (depends on which shop i'm in).

The prob i'm having, is that i only usually wear non wired bras (yes, with boobs that big too), and i HATE the feeling of the underired ones.
My mom reckons i would get used to it, but all the ones i've tried feel soooo uncomfortable and seem to make my boobs appear enormous.

Any ideas ??

Have you tried the old-fashioned basque-type ones? I think John Lewis do them. They don't look terrifically sexy, but they do the job fairly well. Instead of all the work being done by the wires and the strap around your ribs, it is distributed through the 'corset' bit. I think it has to be one that is made for the purpose, rather than as a sexy basque - they may not have enough support.

BTW - nothing wrong with non-wired bras in a C or D cup! I too never went near an underwire if I could help it until I ended up a DD (after ds!) and had no choice.
