LOL, it's nice to know that I'm not the only one with this problem. Everytime I find one that works they discontinue it and I'm back at it again. I find that as I get older that I can't wait to take that thing off when ever I can.

OMG....I swear you have been with me on bra shopping trips....I laughed so hard the DH asked what was so funny. He doesn't understand that a comfortable bra and a bra that fits right are NEVER the same bra. I absotively, posolutely refuse to wear underwires....not happening. Gravity is an evil thing....I think sometimes I will just tuck the girls into the waistband of my pants and be done with em! LOL

it means I have more boob than backside the fitting lady said..
what it really means is that I will NEVER find a bra to fit me really well...all the ones they get here "divide" the girls..I tried to tell the lady they are siamese twins and love togetherness..she said NO, they need to be divided...why...she never answered...great...
we only have Dillards here that sometimes will get in a bra to fit me...I fell in love with one...but at $85 I had to say NO....sigh

We have this one bra that almost every woman with a larger bust walks out loving, has generous straps without being overbearing and good support.

Do you all know that A MAN invented the bra!!!!!
I also have a tough time finding a bra.
My life long dream is to belong to the Itty Bitty T***y Committee. My husband says that committee isn't taking any new people so I guess I am stuck.
We could all just take some duct tape and tape them up over our shoulders and then we don't have to wear a bra and they would be "where" they belong!!!!

VS, Body by Victoria, full coverage/lightly padded, refit every six months.
Never thought I'd find something there (and sometimes I have to order online to get a good color selection in my size) but it's my One True Love. Swoon. As soon as it starts feeling uncomfortable I go for a measurement and replace it.

The sides have never cut into me and the straps are little bit wider than most others. Softest fabric I've ever seen in a bra.

I agree. It is so much more comfortable. People really do not understand them.

Guess if I could make a bra to fit me (and only me), I would prefer that also.
