Gravity is not my friend, everything is heading slowly south now I’m old.
Can anyone recommend a good bra that does F cup sizes, can hoik everything up but isn’t agony to wear? TIA

I like Fantasie- they also have some really good advice on their website about fit and also the style of bra that is best for your shape https://www.fantasie.com/uk/en/advice/bra-styles-for-your-shape/ and https://www.fantasie.com/uk/en/advice/

If you can get to a Rigby & Peller they are great (but pricey)

Elomi Morgan

Definitely Fantasie. I like their smoothing balconette bras. I'm FF and have tried and failed with so many others. 🙃

Mumof1andacat · 17/08/2023 17:25

Freya signature range is good. Also try curvy kate or pour moi. I'm an h cup and these brands work well for me.

Panache envy works for me. 36F

Fantasie Illusion or Fusion bras. I am a 34GG and they’re the only bras I find comfortable.

UnderCarraigeWoes · 17/08/2023 19:43

Miss Mary do a fantastic one that isn't underwires. I think it's called smoothing. It gives a very natural shape too.

or Come and join us on the AMA boob reduction thread !

DelilahBucket · 17/08/2023 19:49

Check you are in the right size with Boob or Bust. Wearing the wrong size means you won't be getting the support you need.

Fantasie Illusion or Fusion bras. I am a 34GG and they’re the only bras I find comfortable.

I was going to suggest the exact same ones I’ve had illusion a while got my first fusion today a really happy with it only £26 on Amazon for both styles

Bonfire23 · 17/08/2023 19:51

Elomi, any of the plunge shape

StartingAgainAt50 · 17/08/2023 19:52

I love the Fantasie 4510 bra - like the previous one posted upthread but with a bit more of a moulded cup which gives better support.

Winterscomingagain · 17/08/2023 20:03

Side support bras are great on my 38f bust, it's taken decades for me to realize this but they've made such a difference.
Fantasie or m&S are good for me.

EddieVeddersfoxymop · 17/08/2023 20:22

I've just had a fitting and bought an Elomi Morgan for work and a Eva Michalak for elsewhere 🙈🤣🤣

FannythePinkFlamingo · 17/08/2023 20:26

I'm 36H and have Elomi Matilda's in various different colours. Good side support too.

Darklane · 18/08/2023 00:42

George at Asda. Seriously, their unpadded wired bras are the best & most comfortable I’ve found for my 36GG . Paid far far more for less comfortable & less flattering ones

MaroonMidnight · 18/08/2023 16:23

Thank you everyone! Will take a look at your suggestions

This is not underwired - 4 hooks at the back if cup E and over.

Im 30 F and like Fantasie balconettes. Always look for side support (4 piece cups). They give lift and forward projection
