Calling all bra gurus - help needed.

[MrsPnut]

I need help with bra advice please. I have always worn a well fitted Panache Tango bra in 38JJ and bought this bra in every colour.

However, I have recently had breast surgery to remove a tumour and lymph nodes along with reducing the other side. This means not only doI I need to figure out my new size but I need to do so in a non wired bra and I have a wide root still to my breasts.

I’m really struggling and have ordered and sent so many bras back. If I could wear underwires then I could fit to the tango pretty easily but I have scars under both breasts that need something soft.

I think I need a 38E or F but I only had the final dressings off today so that will change the shape again.

Can anyone suggest something I can try?

I found Bra Sense really good for fitting and finding comfortable bras.
I found it virtually impossible to find a comfortable bra and she found me 2 I can wear all day
Sara is very kind and understanding

Perhaps a more radical change, at least in the short term? Molke bras are supportive and very comfortable, no wires, and come in pretty much every size. I'm a 28HH/J and they keep mine under control. :-)

I'd suggest a pull on bra top until you're fully healed and things have settled down.

Miss Mary of Sweden do a lot of comfortable, supportive, non-wired bras. Their straps tend to be wide, so not the prettiest (though a lot of the bras themselves are nice), but if comfort is the priority, I recommend them.
