Help finding a minimising bra

8 replies

LadyAstor · 24/09/2022 15:46

Ive put weight on recently and its all gone to my face and chest so I'm looking for a new bra to hide the fact.

Ordered a 36D from Triumph and its too small. both cup and back.

My back /under boob measures 32" my full bust measures 39" which is a 32F by my calculation, so why didnt the Triumph fit my back?

Needless to say, cant find a 32f or even a 34e for love nor money.

Any ideas?

Dont say M&S.

Bravissimo or Brastop do bigger sizes.

36D = 34DD = 32E = 30F
36D is smaller than a 32F in the cup so it will make the 26

Make the 36D feel tight as there's too much breast tissue to fit in

Gossard[s bra called "glossies" has a minimising effect and comes in those sizes.

I am a 30F and sometimes like to be booby (when I wear a balconette bra) but when i want to look flatter I wear the gossard one.

I also buy from brastop

My dd is is 32g and buys Freya bras. John Lewis do them and have a fitting service. Also Bravissimo do larger cup.

Excellent choices. Thanks.

I like the sound of the glossies.

Thanks @dementedpixie

Bravissimo & Victorias Secret put me in 34DD and 34E respectively but I dont like a tight band, hence wearing a 36" back. Sometimes the boobs fall out under the band though. 🤣
