Fuller bust bra recommendations

[Mysteise]

I’m hoping for some bra advice from any fuller bust ladies. I’m a good few months postpartum currently a 36F (was a 32DD before baby) and my boobs are a lot softer and saggier now. I am bigger overall tbh! I used to love nicer padded/lift bras, but the styles I wore before either don’t feel comfortable anymore or don’t come in my size now.

I’ve been living in non-wired bras most of this year but they honestly do nothing for my shape. I really miss feeling supported and confident. I might as well not wear a bra for all the difference my current ones make.

Does anyone have recommendations for comfortable bras that actually lift and shape fuller busts? I just want to look and feel good again! Not breastfeeding if that’s relevant.

Thanks so much in advance

I'm a 34JJ or 36J and my go to is Elomi Cate - worth a look. It's comfortable and supportive and doesn't look too bad! I think the Elomi Morgan bra is supposed to be good too, but I prefer the Cate as I need a full cup.

I like Panache (Envy especially but also Jasmine), and Curvy Kate - I'm 32G

As a 34H Fantasie Illusion from Bravissimo has been my go to for a while

Have you actually gone up 2 dress sizes? If not get a proper measurement first. I also like Panache bras.

Bravissimo Millie is my current favourite. 32HH. I prefer balcony as they suit my boob shape better.

Thanks for the recommendations so far! The general consensus seems to be that Panache and Bravissimo are best for fuller bust. I haven’t shopped from either brand before so might treat myself one from each. I love the look of Elomi as well@RavenTthank you.
I’ve tried some M&S bras recently, but none gave the lift I wanted, the ones you’ve recommended look much more supportive than the styles I tried. @BusterGonadyou make a good point I probably have wearing the wrong size as I’ve had some spillage over the top. My ribs feel bigger since having my baby. I used to be quite small around the back and now there’s a roll that wasn’t there before

Don't laugh but I swear by Doreen Triumph bras. I tried them first maybe 10 or so years ago - I'm 63, I am currently a 36G so there's plenty to hold up. They are amazing in every way, Comfortable and I don't have to worry about bits escaping. People will tell you they are old fashioned, I tell you they are still on the market for a very good reason. They work.

I'm 38J and like these M&S bras. They must be short of stock, because they normally come in a nude/opaline colour and various shades of beige/brown. I DONT own a pink one 😄
Note that on their website, they are called 'Wild Blooms' but instore, that isn't written anywhere on the labelling. I had to shop the shop assistant what I was talking about and she said they use different name online! 🙄

book yourself into your nearest Bravissimo shop for a fitting and some help choosing the right style for you. they are excellent and also do all the running round the shop getting bras for you to try. i'm 36G and wear Elomi, bravissimo and panache. have tried Freya. it not as comfy. x

Another vote for Elomi Cate. At least it's comfortable (similar size to you OP). The Bravissimo ones look better but the wires dig in after a days wear.

Rigby and Peller full cup underwired. Really comfortable if properly fitted.

36E and I used to wear Fantasie but I have switched to Rigby and Peller. M n S never fit me.

I have had all the bras mentioned above st one time or another and still have the Bravissimo Millie and the Panache ones in my drawer, but the ones I wear most at the moment are from M&S. I was surprised at the amount of choice in the larger cup sizes they now offer although I found some of them didnt offer enough support for me
M&S bra fittings come in for a lot criticism and I didn’t bother because I have a good idea of my back and cup size and know how a bra should fit. I took a selection of back and cup sizes into the changing room, and narrowed it down to 2, wore them for a few days under t shirts to make sure they did fit properly and supported my G cups well then went back and got a couple more. Be warned though sizing isn’t consistent between the styles and colours of the same style.

Thank you all so much for all your replies, I really do appreciate it!

Reassuring to see a lot of the same brands/bras mentioned. I am excited to stock up some new styles once I confirm my new size.

I need full cup coverage as my boobs are too big all over for balconette or plunge styles. I can only wear panache Jasmine or serene bras. There is generally very little available in my size, so I hope you have more luck.

36F here and l usually wear Panache Tango or Fantasie.

@luckylavenderi actually think these look really nice! Reviews are so positive!

I have been wearing Panache Tango and Envy for years but have just discovered the Fantasie Fusion and its great, feels really soft but is so supportive too. All three of these recommendations have come through Bravissimo, its worth visiting there and if they can find you something that works, you can then repurchase for years to come. Bear in mind most bras will feel tight round the torso on the first few times of wearing, they will give a lot over time.

It’s the fitting that really matters. It’s totally worth booking a days holiday, cheap day return to London for a Rigby and Peller fitting

I have just been fitted at Bravissimo. I've gone from a 40J to 38HH (lost a decent amount of weight, but it doesn't seem to be coming off my boobs unfortunately)

I bought four bras, and my favourite out of the four is Elomi Morgan. It fits me beautifully, and is very comfortable to wear.

I also bought Bravissimo Esi, which is nice, but doesn't feel as good as the Morgan.

I'd definitely return to be re-fitted, as that experience showed that whilst several bras may be the same band/cup size, it doesn't mean they all fit the same body.

Another vote for getting fitted at Bravissimo (they were really helpful to me postpartum) and Fantasie Illusion.

M&S DD+ bras don't fit a lot of people and the fitters often put you in the wrong size!

I’ve tried lots of different bras and for
me I find Fantasie to be the best. I alos
buy their swimsuits.

I buy them in John Lewis or Bravissimo. I’m a 34GG.

I do love Rigby & Peller but it’s so expensive

Does everyone wear the Cate underwired or soft cup?

I'm 36f too and have tried a lot of bras, my favourite for the last year or so are M&S "extra support bra", and bonus is it's price friendly. It's made of 4 panels and I find that makes a big difference
