Ladies with No Norks...

[MayorNaze]

where do you buy your bras??

am seriously lacking in inspiration

Usually Marks and Spencer or Primark (the latter certainly used to have a decent selection of plain, unfussy, comfy ones).

An independant lingerie shop - the sort where they fit the bra to you by assessing your shape, not just size

ah now i add the crucial factor...no padding! NOW where do i buy titchy bras??!!

I've been known to buy them from the kid's section .

i am not sure we have independent lingerie shops in the south west... but worth a thought...i can't quite bring mysel to buy teen bras...they are all unicorns and rainbows...

I'm sure you do - I live in the Midlands, and there's one in my tiny town, and one in each of the nearest big towns.
They tend to have more of a range than the standard shops ime.

By no padding, do you mean absolutely no thickness at all ? I favour a bit to prevent pokiness, and am currently wearing Elle McPherson balconette bras which are really pretty

i do mean none at all but am beginning t think that perhaps i should give a balcony type thing a go...i usd to be a d cup pre dcs but am now an a and tbh it is a new and not especially thrilling experience

i have tried to explain my dilemma to dh and hehas insisted we go shopping tomorrow

result [rin]

M & S have some lovely ones that start from an A cup with no padding,(have you noticed that anything under a D seems to have compulsory padding in most shops?)
selection

I'm an A cup and bought some nice Tshirt style bras' from peacocks about 4 years ago which are still going strong. They are very lightly moulded but not really padded (hate padded bra's) agree that lots of A cups seem to assume you want mega padded gel filled air pumped cups. Also another vote for m&s

No bra at all? I have the same dilemma, and just having stopped bfing I am also now getting used to tiny skin flaps where I used to have boobs...

well smack my ass and call me judy

i went to m&s

i got measured

i was in a 34A

I AM IN FACT A 34C

AND i now know about the Science Of The Bra

apparently all that padded/balcony business is for poor unfortunates like me who need, for example, a C cup to support the bottom of the nork...but cannot necessarily fill the rest of the cup

it was all very technical and surprsing but i get it now.

unfortunately i am still sans bras that fit as it took the best part of an hour to learn this an by then dd was getting antsy.

but i will return...

and i WILL have a decent bra that fits...i WILL!!!

hello! I always thought I was boobless,
and found am a 34c and with the right bra look quite va-va-voom.

Am big fan of Calvin Klein shaped (not padded, but moulded cups)bras, they are about 30 pounds each though, but last for years and years.

next friday will be The Day Of The Bra...am stupidly excited...
