Does this bra exist?

[fedupandfifty]

I'm looking for a bra that is non-wired, has the comfort of a sports bra, is glamorous, and black ( or easily matchable). Nork size: 36B.

Does it exist?

[fedupandfifty]

How do you lot know all this?

[HesterShaw]

Because of Sorrel and Statistically!! They have legendary status on MN. They are The Bra Ladies. I was in a 34A for years, bra riding up over my boobs, straps falling down etc. I've now replaced the lot, and the new ones are all 30C or Ds.

[Chopsypie]

Same here. I was in very uncomfortable 38d.
I'm now feeling and looking much better in a 34/36 FF!

Please measure, and take their advice. I promise you'll feel like a new woman!

[AgathaF]

Same here - gone down 2 back sizes and up 3 cup sizes. Your new bras will feel and look fab!

[Kleptronic]

Me too. Was wearing 36B, had strap slippage, double boobs, aching norks, band never sat on chest.

Bra Ladies intervention: 34DD, never been so comfy. I still am brainwashed though, I still can't quite believe I'm a DD. It's the sideboobs

Listen to the Bra Ladies!

[fedupandfifty]

Thanks all. I am now the proud owner of a lifted, shaped set of bristols encased in a 32dd Marksies job. Down 2 back sizes, up a couple of cup sizes.

[SorrelForbes]

Excellent news indeed. Remember to keep scooping and don't be surprised if you need to go up another cup over the next few months as the breast tissue migrates back to its proper location.

[fedupandfifty]

Thanks sorrel. I perhaps should have gone up a cup size, but 'twill do for now!

Still don't get why the shops are chock full of b and c cups.

[HazleNutt]

because of most "bra fitters" and online bra calculators using the outdated add +4/5 inches method.

[enormouse]

Just wondering - why do some shops still use that method? And why don't they cater more for the small of back (I'm currently a 28E)

[MadBusLady]

It's like taking the red pill in The Matrix isn't it. I wear a 30FF now, can't believe I used to wear a 34B when much thinner

[HazleNutt]

I don't know why they still do that. During the first bra intervention threads here several people wrote, facebooked and tweeter M&S (and some others) - the reply as I remember was that "we offer an excellent service!"

[StatisticallyChallenged]

So true Hazlenutt. Don't forget the second level answer when we took to secret shopping them

"this is an isolated incident, can you please identify the store/completely innocent but badly trained fitter so we can scapegoat them"

[Mandy2003]

Oh yes it does exist - I am a 36b and found some on ebay. Have bought 3 or 4 now, when i am on the PC tomorrow I will try and post details.

[HazleNutt]

mandy, OP has since discovered that she is not really 36B, but 32DD.

[SorrelForbes]

Mandy2003 I suspect that you might not be a 3-1 either.

[SorrelForbes]

*36B

[ihatethecold]

I really have given up with proper bras.
I find them so uncomfortable. I now wear a crop top. Not ideal I know but comfy.
I did buy a r + p bra last year. It was comfy but has stretched quite a bit so not great to wear now.
My measurements are 33 tight. 34 better. Under boob.
When I lean forwards the size is 40/41.

Any advice.
Please don't say 32 band. I can't stand how tight it is.
Thanks

[OPeaches]

34E or F?

[marriednotdead]

[StatisticallyChallenged]

MARRIIIIIEEEEEEEDDDDD

[SorrelForbes]

Hey married happy new year

[ihatethecold]

Thanks opeaches.
Will look at that size.
My r and p bra was 34e.
It did stretch pretty quickly though

[SparklingMuppet]

Ihate on a 32 band you'll need to be trying FF, G and possibly GG cups to ensure that the cups aren't stealing space from the band, E and single F won't cut it.

[SorrelForbes]

Yep, try a 32FF/G and a 34F/FF
