Incredibly comfy bralettes from M and S

I have bought and worn these ( on offer) and am in heaven. But I am small busted, 34 B. Not sure how they work for larger busted ladies. Still, I may never go back to a bra again and may buy one more pack. I usually am dying to take off my bra by the end of the day but wore them all day yesterday.

For bigger busted women who come across this thread, these non wired bralettes are amazing. I'm a 34H and pregnant, and this is the comfiest thing I've worn...

I'm a bralette convert too! Haven't worn a bra for about 2 years now.

Are they moulded into a firm cup shape?

Staynow · 02/06/2022 20:23

In Primark I got 3 for £7.99 I think it was. I absolutely love them, would never wear anything else again.

OP- do the ones you recommend have a catch at the back or are they pull over?
I tried some crop top bralettes last week and I thought I was going to need to be cut out of them! I was stuck!

They are pull over. I normally hate pull overs, and have often got stuck in bra tops. But these ones are v comfy.

Please don't hate me if they don't suit you!Everyone's breasts are different.

They do some fantastic bralettes which fasten like a normal bra as well. There is an optional extra hook to make them racer back too.

I'm an E cup and they are brilliant. Bought one and then two more.

kimwexlerfan · 02/06/2022 21:27

Do they give a bit of lift? I got the nighttime ones during lockdown and I'm afraid I have not worn a proper bra since. Though I would like something as comfy with a bit of a lift (c cup)

Namechanger355 · 02/06/2022 21:30

Looks comfy - thanks Op! Problem is that it’s going like hot cakes - probably since your post!

TraceyLacey · 02/06/2022 21:31

Thanks for the recommendation!

peridito · 02/06/2022 21:37

@Rosehugger - those flexi fit bras are fantastic ,I'm big busted and overweight and I love them .

catfunk · 03/06/2022 12:19

These types are all I wear these days.
I've had them from M&S, sainsburys even primark. The trick ir finding ones with a nice tight supportive chest band. The H&M ones for example are very baggy/non elastic so you might as well not be wearing one!

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 03/06/2022 12:21

Flexifit are fantastic for bigger boobs. M and S are really good at the moment, went to a big store last week and spent a small fortune which hasn't happened in years.

Oh good somebody liked them! I was beginning to wonder if I have imagined how comfy they are. I have washed them as well and they have washed fine, though I did wash them at the delicate setting and in a laundry bag.

I've worn M&S crop tops for a couple of years now. So much more comfy than old fashioned bras (I've been home from work an hour now, and haven't taken mine off yet - that proves it!!) There are a couple of downsides for me - the thick straps are always showing themselves around my neckline which is super-annoying, they do give a bit of a monoboob appearance and they flatten what tiny assets I do have rather than bolster them. So much more comfortable they're definitely the lesser of evils for me though!

Danielle2500 · 07/06/2022 09:06

@JanisMoplin thanks so much for this thread, I have ordered myself a pack - they are absolutely amazing! I ordered a 2nd pack and one for my sister too :D

You are welcome. Am ordering a second pack too. Putting my underwired tshirt bras in storage.

I'm 38h and I wear bralettes when I am not dressing formally for any reason. Super comfy - but mine are from primark!

Soooo comfy

They wash and dry great too

Saucery · 07/06/2022 18:46

Another thank you here! I ordered some after reading this thread the other day and they are so, so comfy. I wouldn’t go running in them or anything (36D) but for relaxing in I am already a fan. Can’t abide bras of an evening.
I got the 3 pack M&S ones. Might have a look at the sturdier ones too.

alwaysontheloo · 07/06/2022 19:16

I'm 32G are there any that are good for my size? I need some support with them though
