Best bras for 36ff? Not too expensive!

Just that really ... I'm tired of under wired bras digging into me painfully. Are there any good bras out there, wired or not that still lift and give definition, without making them look even more huge?

Hello. I am a 36 Gg of 34 H depending on the style. I think Fantasie and Elomi are the most comfortable however they are not cheap. Each bra is about £34. I would prefer fewer better fitting bras and pay more for them. I have never found cheap bras that fit properly and give me a good shape and a defined waist.

Sorry should say 36 GG or 34H!

Batsypatsy · 04/03/2019 15:10

Thanks .. where do you buy them from?

I get my fantasie and panache ines from next directory.

I'm 36ff too.

Go to Bravissimo and find ones that fit then check Bra Stop for previous season colours that are usually cheaper.

Hi
I would suggest checking your size - just incase its not quite right. Makes a massive difference!
Im a 30GG i ususally buy fantasie bras in the sale from next (online).
Happy shopping!

I am the same size and buy Next own brand bras.

I did buy a Figleaves one in the sale and that was good too.

I get mine from brastop I like Curvy Kate but I think it's because they suit my broad shoulders and boob shape.

Go to bravissimo and try loads of different styles / shapes etc. I'm currently pregnant and Molke bras have absolutely saved my life - wireless, supporting and comfy!!

Thanks everyone.

I did get measured in bravissimo but probably need to go again. I was 34gg but they're digging into me so I started buying 36ff which fits but still the wires hurt. Each bra seems a different fit too.

Any particular models you find very comfy?

I get the fantasie ones, available in department stores, John Lewis etc. The t-shirt style ones are very comfortable and give a great shape under clothes.

Debenhams bras - not the multi packs. Cant remember what they're called, they're for +DD and often with 25% off.
