What kind of bra should a woman wear if she has large breasts?
Help! I have 36DD or DDD breasts (depending on bra brand), and I can’t seem to find a bra that offers enough support. Not only do my bras not lift enough, but I often bulge out of them and they stretch out within 6 months or less. I’ve tried MaidenForm, Victoria’s Secret, and Playtex. Nothing has worked so far.
What brand and style should I wear? Are there any specialty shops in Western Washington?
You don’t need a specialty shop. Go to a large department store like Nordstrom, Macy’s, etc and get fitted for a bra. You do not necessarily have to buy one but you will ultimately discover you are wearing the wrong sized bra.
The sizing formula of adding 5 and then subtracting one…or whatever is not really based on anything. You will likely find out that with a tape measure the area directly above the rib cage and under the breast is about 34′ or 35. That measures your band width. From there the cup sizing changes. Don’t be alarmed at the letter difference since this tends to differ from country to country, but I have found that most 36DD or DDD end up measuring a 34E or so. – not exactly 34 on the tape but most 36 end up being a 34.
The brands that make these are kind of high end and pricey. The brands are
Panache
Fantasie
Freya
Fauve
Rigby & Pellor
They have more volume in the cup. Further, they are exquisitely beautiful and worth every cent. You will not believe how much better you will look and feel. There is a video on Oprah’s website that explains this better and shows a few fitted on woman of all breast sizes and I will add it to the “Sources” part when I look for it again.
If you search on the web don’t go to Bare Necessities, or Her Room because they are very pricey on those sites. Go to Figleaves.com.
* The third person’s suggestion isn’t a bad one **but get fitted first** Biggerbras has some ok Fantasie and Freya’s. The site usually offers a 10% discount and the shipping isn’t bad. A little later they send you an email with a request for a review (which you don’t have to do) but they usually have a larger discount in it.
