Molke or other cotton/ natural fibre comfortable bra for H cup

[ActuallyComfortable]

I've got the outerwear for the hot weather down (cotton or linen dresses, loose fitting, mostly long) but the world (and work especially) are probably not ready for me to go braless!

The only wireless bra that's ever worked for me is one specific M&S one but it's completely synthetic so isn't working well in the heat! I usually wear Curvy Kate wired bras and have some of those which are cotton, but I'm not getting on with the wires in the heat (I've never minded wires in the past).

Im a 38H so I really need something that gives some support and a bit of lift. I don't want uniboob crop tops - I'm too big to make that work especially with dresses.

Is Molke the answer or do they basically just work like vests? They are cotton jersey apparently (at least the original bra).

I'm okay with Molke pricing if they're worth it but I'm ordering from the EU so the postage cost is hefty too unless I order over €150 worth - I'd rather not be ordering things that won't be likely to be any good.

Is Molke the answer? Any better suggestions?

I’m an H/HH but smaller back size and find the Panache Faith bras the best (but they are wired). Panache i think have some non wired options and I find them the best

I love my Molke bras....but not in this heat. They're quite tight fitting round the band to give you support without wires and I personally would find them far too hot in the heatwave.

Ah interesting thank you. What's the answer then? What do you prefer in the heat?

I love my Molkes, I’ve never found another bra that offers the same support combined with comfort, I can sleep in mine, but they are quite thick material! M&S flexifit is the only reasonable more lightweight contender I’ve found.

Thanks. It's not just about cup size of course and I generally prefer Freya, Curvey Kate, and Fantasie but specific styles in each. I'm really looking for a cotton, wireless recommendation that gives shape or specifically something that works well in the heat.

Thanks - those are all synthetic and look a lot like sloggi bras, which for some reason completely don't work for my body at all. I have two lighter weight synthetic m&s wireless bras and for some reason one style works for me way better than the other, but both are smelly by the end of a day in the heat.

Try big bloomers company. Their cotton bras are ok in terms of being breathable and supportive

Thanks - I just had a look and it seems they only do cotton briefs, the bras are polyamide. Perhaps they've changed that recently.

I just wanted to update incase it's useful to anyone else.

I bought one bra each from:

Molke:
very comfortable indeed once on

much more flattering than I expected

I think it could double as swimwear as it is indeed thick and doesn't look like a conventional bra, plus of course no metal fasteners.

but omg was it difficult to actually put on! Perhaps that's just me, but it rolled up at the back and the first time I put it on I thought I'm going to have to ask for help to get either in or out of it, or alternatively cut it off!

Big bloomers:
comfortable and easy to put on but pretty useless, it really is in the "just like a cropped vest" category. I can't think what it'd really be useful for except perhaps a hospital stay/ time of convalescence as it provides only coverage but no support. Perhaps I should have sized down though.

Rosme
I found an ugly looking big white cotton bra (standard bra cut with back fastening rather than pull over your head like the other two) with neither underwire nor padding from this brand and it's probably the nearest to what I was looking for, but not quite as comfortable or nice looking as the Molke - a lot easier to put on though!
