Boob or Bust / Bravissimo - my bra fits! Recommendations?

Did the BoB calculator recently. Came out at a 34E (I’ve been wearing 38C or 40B 😳)

I ordered some 34E and 36D bras when I was ordering from ASOS - all way too small and super uncomfortable and I felt had!

Saw a post here about Bravissimo and decided to order a few bras in different sizes. Found a bra on sale and ordered 36D, 36E and 36F in the same bra, and a lovely stretch lace front fastening bra in 36F as reviews said it came up a bit small (only has one set of hooks).

Holy crap - I’m a 36F. My boobs look totally different - all out front, not flattened or weird. No back fat. No spillage. Underwire flat against my chest. When I bend over you can’t see inside my bra! I’m 36 and it’s miracle.

Also bought two dresses in their sale and they are amazing.

I’m in complete shock.

The Gossard stretch lace bra is gorgeous. The others aren’t quite right (really wouldn’t recommend the Flo bra - it has stretch fabric over the top which just isn’t sitting right). I think I need a different cup shape as I struggle with some emptiness in the top of the cups always anyway.

Going to get some balconette shape bras and more stretch lace - what else should I try? I’ve thrown all my other shit bras away!

To be honest if you’ve found a bra that fits you so perfectly that you’ve become evangelical about it then I’d just get one in every colour or maybe even more in case they get discontinued Grin

My perfect bra is the Panache Elan balconette. It’s very plain but I like that.

Oh I’ll definitely get more of the stretch lace ones! Shame about the weird double layer fabric on the others but they are comfy. Will have a look at that one :)
