Looking for Recommendations: Non-Activewear Tops with Built-In

Does anyone have recommendations for shirts or tank tops with built-in bras that aren’t activewear?

A few years ago I found the most perfect going-out tank from H&M that had a built-in bra and it’s been my holy grail ever since. But it’s starting to show its age and I’m desperately on the hunt for a replacement. I’d love something stylish and versatile or even good basics that provides decent support for bigger boobs without looking like gym wear.

If you’ve come across anything similar please share your recs! Bonus points for links or specific brands. Thank you!

Friend tried comparing my boobs to men’s genitals….

Title says it all…

I got extremely offended tbh and haven’t really spoken to this friend since because of it. This isn’t the first issue I’ve had with that friend but comparing my boobs to men’s genitals completely did it for me… funny thing is this friend is a non binary but female at birth, meaning they should understand they ARE NOT THE SAME THING but I guess people with small boobs love invalidating my experiences and tell me I’m delusional 🫠😭😭

This whole discussion happened because one of our favorite celebrities posted a thirst trap with a. clear visible boner and the comments were thirsty they (non binary friend) got offended and said it’s sexual harassment even though the celebrity was loving and engaging with the thirsty comments and tried to start drama for no reason.

They practically tried to compare me wearing normal clothes and getting cat called because of my boobs unfortunately showing through my tops to a man posting thirst traps.. huge difference… I mean it would be foolish of me to post lingerie photos on the internet and get mad at the thirsty comments right? Or have someone else get offended on my behalf even though I’m not offended? Tbh I don’t even know how that came up and said I was justifying sexual harassment… which isn’t even close. It was just a little fun thirst trap. It would have been sexual harassment if he was sitting at a park bench and sharing a photo and people was making thirsty comments then I could see it.

The man was clearly loving it or else he wouldn’t have been responding to the comments or posted it surely unless I and over 500k people that liked that post are really delusional…

This actually happened a few weeks ago but for some reason I just can’t get over it… every time that friend pops up in the group chat that’s all my mind goes back to and tbh it’s really upsetting that they tried to use my boobs as an example to male genitalia. I think that’s where I got mad and hurt over it. It wasn’t the discussion. It was straight up trying to use my boobs as a “sexual harassment” comparison to a thirst trap I mean really 🤦🏻‍♀️

The feeling of release

Does anyone else have those moments where you're laying on a couch or something, and your back finally pops. For a few glorious moments the world feels clear and full of hope. I also get similar sensations everytime I put on my good bra, and corset. In spite of the difficulty I have finding bras, and things I get some comfort in my corsets. Not just because my back feels amazing in them. It's kinda fun to think that I need steel scaffolding to hold up my girls.

Would this look good on big boob peeps?

I know looks are subjective but felt like y'all might understand. Usually have only seen women with small ones carrying them well and I wonder if it would look any good on someone like me. I have a plain white tee that I bought for another deep two panelled jumpsuit (you can see it in my post history) and it absolutely doesn't look good. Therefore skeptical to buy this but it does look nice so quite confused.

Any cute stylish tops for big boobs?

I need advice on how to find cite stylish tops which fit my boobs. I'm a D cup with saggy boobs so I usually like a bit of support from the top itself or the bra if I can wear one under.

Any advice on what brands/style/shops/fits to look for? I'm a vinted shopper for the most part, what key words could I use there to find good things?

Anyone found a winter vest this season that’s big boob friendly?

It’d be great to find one we can zip up without buying an XXL or having boobs flattened into hockey pucks.

Shapewear with strapless bra?

I am wedding dress shopping soon and am stressing out about shapewear.

Does anyone have any suggestions, or advice?

I want to shop for a strapless gown but don't know what to do with the boob part. If I wear a strapless bra and get shapewear that starts below it, then I'll have back fat issues.

I have the skims strapless body suit but the strapless part digs in and can look funny. I've also tried corsets with bras and I love the structure they provide but the boobs end up looking weird lol but maybe I need to try more or adjust sizing...

I'm a 36DD for reference. Maybe it's a lost cause but though I'd ask.

My favorite bra has been discontinued

Aerie's real power balconette bra was my absolute favorite bra i've ever owned, i'm in need of a new one & don't know what to get now😭 does anybody have any recs that are similar? i loved it because it offered great support, was super comfy for a wire bra, and wasn't absolutely plain like usual bras that come in bigger sizes 🥲

What to do when i guy keeps starring at ur boobs.

There’s this guy who i take class with and i’m already aware that he likes me. But it’s so uncomfortable when we talk because he stares straight below my chin, as in my boobs. It makes me super uncomfortable and idk how to address it. Part of me feels like i should slap him but another part of me feels like i shouldn’t do anything at all. What should i do?

Recs: Looking for a minimizer bra that also has back coverage or at least a thick band.

I’m a 40C! I’ve been looking all over for a minimizer that’s thick in the back. At least 3-4 hooks all the good ones I find are 2 hooks and look so thin. Any recommendations? Thanks!

crashing out over nothing lifting my boobs

Hi! I'm a size 42-44H and 5'3 240lbs. I feel like nothing can lift my breasts and this causes me so much back pain and just a horrible self esteem. Mine are so heavy that yeah I found a comfortable bra but they're not cute and make me look like a grandma. I just want to feel good and look good, I'm in my 20s and just want a lift, whats the point of having them when they don't flatter me at all? (This is just me hating on myself).

Does anyone have any advice/brands in the US? I even tried using boob tape and it did nothing for me. I'm genuinely going through it emotionally. I used to wear a great pushup bra by Victoria Secret called the Bombshell but that was when I was skinnier, I just want something that will give me the same lift and rounded shape so a pushup with extra cushion would be nice.

How do you view other girls with big boobs and do you normally feel big….

Hey, I know this is quite a common issue on here or for people with bbps but I need some suggestions for clothing styles, silhouettes or even just advice!!

I’m a 30GG UK sizing so on the smaller side of the bb spectrum and I’m sort of petite at 5”4. Anyways, I know I’m not overweight or at an unhealthy weight but even wearing a simple top makes me look so large!! Like I cannot recognize myself. So I often feel more comfortable wearing tighter clothing (i.e tank tops). I could just have body dysmorphia (I think I do) but I look different in the mirror than I do in pictures and it’s mostly to do with my boobs. But when I see other teen girls with big boobs they actually look smaller (can still look skinny) because of the proportions (ex: arms, stomach look smaller, etc) so overall please tell me what you say to yourself when you feel this (if you do), what helps and what can I do? Is the only solution to not being insecure about my overall body size just losing weight?

I would love to love all the parts of my body completely not just when I wear tighter and more form fitting clothing? I don’t even wear hoodies for this reason (and now I’m often cold)

Elomi himari is life changing

First of all, it’s gorgeous but after spending hundreds, I finally not only have my correct size in cup and band, WITH the gore sitting flush against my chest(YAY!) but it’s so comfortable you can barely feel it. On my way to go order like 10 more elomi bras.

Do I HAVE to wear a sport bra for weightlifting?

Hear me out please. I am a 30/ 32 JJ and generally don’t wear bras, or only soft bralettes. Reason for this is that I still never found the perfect fit, or it’s too « bulky » and I don’t like to feel like I’m in a jail. I weightlift and wear a sport bra, but my last bra that fit kind of okay is at the end of its life, and I’m in a different country so I can’t buy the same one ( it was the knix catalyst one in 6++, far from perfect but I have low standards).

Now my question: do I really need a sport bra? Can just a tight top/ bralette do the job? I don’t do cardio(…) My only issue would be when bending over obviously my boobs would go lower than with a sport bra, idc personally but I don’t want men to stare at me at the gym anymore than they already do. What do you think?

advice on the right bra for my breast type (32D)

Hello girls,

I hope they are well. I would like to ask for your help and advice on what type of bra might be best for me. I have been looking for options and I would like to know what you think based on my breast type and measurements.

Here I leave you some information so that you can guide me better:

Loose Underbust: 33 inches

Snug Underbust: 32 inches

Tight Underbust: 31 inches

Standing bust: 36 inches

Leaning Bust: 38 inches

Lying bust: 37 inches Sizing system: UK Units: inches.

= 32DD/E and sister size = 34D/DD

but in another test my result is=32D

Shape of my breasts: It has a teardrop shape, with a medium root, medium width of the root (towards the sides). Medium forward projection, medium fullness, my breasts look somewhat round from the front but in profile they look fuller at the bottom than at the top.

My goal is to find a bra that offers good support, comfort and highlights the natural shape of my breasts, without creating an "excessively lifted" or artificial effect.

I would also like to know if there is a style that helps me feel more confident and comfortable, especially for everyday wear, and if there is anything I should take into account when choosing the size or type of bra.

I greatly appreciate your help and any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Any brand recommendations for corset tops that fit big boobs?

I’m on the hunt for a good corset top or dress with a corset for a holiday party, and I haven’t found anything great yet. House of CB sadly doesn’t fit, and I have one Taideux dress, but looking for other options! 🙏🏾

I never realized how many bras I went through until I started cleaning them out…

I have sizes that range from 36c to 36ddd and I have over 10+ them. I decided to try to sell them since I’m broke for new ones 😭🤣
