Another bralette one

[Notarealmum]

I’ve been wearing bralettes during the day for comfort for a few years now but I’ve never managed to find one that offers sufficient support. My breasts aren’t all that large but they are saggy and wayward and I have a broad back. I find any that sufficiently encompass my breasts without creating a mono boob are a bit loose on the band, and I tend to fall out of deep cleavage styles so need one that’s reasonably height at the front.

Any recommendations please? Not Molke as I don’t want a racer back (I often wear low back dresses) and I don’t like the patterns. I avidly peruse any threads on this subject but to no avail so far.....

I wear the M&S lace Bralette. I'm a 34G. They work for me but it does push the breasts together rather than separating. But I wouldn't say that they give me sausage boobs though. The band below the breasts can sometimes roll up slightly by the end of the day, and can feel a bit diggy after 16 hours of wear, but is there such a thing as the perfect bra?

I would say they are high on the front. Full cups.

Thanks, it looks nice but I feel I need some padding to give me shape when there’s no underwiring. Worth a try though, you never know!

I see what you're saying. My boobs are rather low slung (😂) and for me I find the shape they give to be nice enough. They are supportive but I wouldn't use them to wear running etc. For me it lifts and pushes them together. Whereas my wired bras lift and separates.

Have you tried Sloggi Romance?
It does 'separate' and give some shape, but is very soft and comfortable.

Asda do padded cup pull-on bras, I've got a broad back and am probably 38/40 E cup, and they give me a decent shape and are comfortable. Maybe not firm enough for running or hard exercise, but good for everyday wear.

@Shellingbynight I do like the look of that one, thanks. Separation is important to me.

@DelphiniumBlue I’ll have a look at Asda online now.....

Thanks, everyone, for the recommendations!

@Notarealmum I got a pack of 3 from Matalan recently and am really pleasantly surprised, especially because of the price. I'll try to find the order email with the exact name of them.

@Notarealmum "seam free padded lace bralettes". The lace detail is on the back of each strap.

Thanks for that, @CurbsideProphet, I wouldn’t have thought of Matalan. There’s another one on their website that might be OK too.

I also agree with the Sloggi recommendation. Though I also have some bralettes (variety of styles might be worth a look) from Urban Outfitters, spotted when shopping there with teen child!

Sugar candy bralettes give a good shape and are very comfy. I have the nursing one, but I believe the normal ones are the same style. Bit pricy, but good quality.

I was in M and S yesterday, and they had a huge selection of bras and bralettes, some of which were padded. If you are anywhere near Sheffield I really recommend that you go to their Meadowhall branch. No other shop I have been in has such a huge selection of underwear.

ps don't get measured by them, as they get it wrong.

Bravissimo have some great ones

Sugar Candy is interesting, @Carlichimp, thanks, I’d never heard of that brand. I don’t want a bra with hooks tough ideally.
Thanks @RampantIvy, I’ve tried M & S bras and bralettes over the years and there always something wrong with them (for me) so I have to admit I’ve rather given up on them. Perhaps I’m wrong to do that. Likewise Bravissimo - usually a bit too low cut for me - but I’ll have another look at their online store now @IlonaRN.

It really is an ongoing trial for me, I’ve been starting to think I should maybe just go back to ordinary bras - or accept my breasts will forever hang low and ill-shapen.
