Sainsbury's £8 bra...they are bloody great!

[Gatekeeper]

these ones ... tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/p/DD%2B-Brown-Nude-Underwired-Full-Cup-Bra/139074127-BrownNude

I've been wearing Fantasie ones at £40ish a pop for last few years and when the ones I had gave up the ghost ...left tit plummeted during a meeting like in a Jilly Cooper story, I had to look for a few replacement that didn't break the bank. I've just sent for a few different sizes of the ones above and I've found my size in Fantasie is exactly the same in these only more comfortable and a hell of a lot cheaper !
Thoroughly recommend

Doesn't she model for Bravissimo?

I've never had a wire break in a bra

I am after a decent racer back bra not sports bra because for some reason straps that don’t stay up give me a real rage .

The TU zip through Hoodies are great too
(Off topic sorry)

Yeah I bought one of these the quality was ok but the g definitely wasn’t true to size

They look nice. Are they true to size?

Mine is true to size. The finish isn't quite as good as the Fantasie but fir the price it's great

They look good, shame they don't do a 30 band

I went to buy some but they don't do my size (38D) in any of the colours

Obvious question but is that size correct? It’s a pretty unusual size. I would recommend Boob or Bust to check your measurement

Thanks OP I’ve been struggling to find a comfy underwired bra. I’ll give these a try.

Looks nice but i just hate a full cup. Works if you have bigger boobs i suppose

Because those are the DD+ you will need to look at the A-D range for a D cup.

@SaltedCaramelHC

Oh I was mistaken, no c or D, just starts at DD

Theses are DD+ bras the smaller cups are in a different range.

Thanks so much for the recommendation OP! I hate spending a fortune on a new bra and end up wearing my bras past the point of them doing much at all - this looks perfect

@ElephantandGrasshopper

Yep - I'm either 30G or 28FF and nowhere cheap sells these!

I was at Sainsbury's today and bought 36D to try, after reading this thread. They are comfortable true to size and way better than John Lewis ones I bought last month. Thank you OP

It’s a shame that supermarkets and quite a lot of lingerie shops don’t have 28DD or 30d!

I bought one (34E) after reading this thread. It looks nice and is comfortable but I doubt it will last long, the straps feel quite flimsy. Primark quality I'd say.

Thanks OP I’ve just bought three as my AP bras need replacing and can’t face spending the £££ on them.

Me too 😭
Thin people have boobies too.
Manufacturers seem to forget that.

That was for @Gonnagetgoing

34E here and my favourite bra is a cheapie from Sainsburys. Just so well fitting and supportive

Me too 😭 Thin people have boobies too. Manufacturers seem to forget that.

And me! Check Amazon - not cheap cheap, but I got a nice Curvy Kate one for under £20.

If only they did a 28 back…
