Recommendations for unwired bras that don't result in uniboobs?

I have a ton of wired bras that fit great, but they can sometimes be uncomfortable, especially on hot days when I get sweaty. I have some lounge and sports bras that are great, but they result in uniboobs.

Are there any unwired bras out there that provide some separation and also support? Or am I looking for a unicorn?

For reference, I'm 36G

Compression bra that isn't too tight?

Hi everyone, guy with gyno here. Mostly get by wearing sports bras but have been finding them too constricting lately (I wear Natori). Can anyone suggest a bra which has great compression but doesn't choke you? I am a 40D and most minimizers I have tried are too tight.

Why are brands doing this?

I really don’t understand why brands are doing this. Why don’t they check their ads before they post them?

Where can I find 46H bras?

Where can I find 46H bras?

Hi guys, I recently sized myself and found out that I’m a 46h and I’ve been squeezing into smaller bras that I find at Walmart, just the biggest ones I can find. Where can I get the best deals for this size? I can’t find anything at normal stores, I just ordered one off of amazon to try but is there a store or a website that sells this size?

These buttons are stronger than my will to live

(jk w the title I'm ok)

Don't ever buy button shirts, especially online. Sizing up didn't help. It's too much heartache, worse than a bad relationship. I'm tired of clothes shopping.

Just wanted to share a funny moment with my sisters in boobs.

Hope you all have a great day!

Strapless recommendations!

Hey guys! I need recommendations for a strapless bra, i’m a 36E (UK) with considerably saggy boobs looking for a strapless bra (affordable i’m on a uni budget😂). I want to start wearing tube tops and cute stuff without having the worry of my strap showing, I’m sick and tired of wearing boring t-shirts! The problem I have with a strapless bra i’ve tried before (from M&S) is that my boobs sag down and it looks really bad from the side. Any help would be much appreciated, ty girlies! 🫶🏼

My boobs are so big now I find it difficult to sleep comfortably.

Edit: just so everyone knows how bad this subreddit has gotten - woke up to 9 creepy chat requests. Mods really need to consider making this subreddit private because it’s basically just for perverts to jack off now. Additionally I don’t need anyone’s help with bra fittings, I am 34 years old and know what bra size I am, what I should or should not be wearing during the day, and how to properly care for myself otherwise. This was intended as a frustrated rant, as I know plenty of other women here struggle similarly.

That’s all. My tits are suffocating me unless I sleep in a bra + partially upright. I feel absurd. 😑

Want to see some big boobs represented on TV? Go to Netflix and watch...

the Love is Blind Reunion!

Every once in a while there is a discussion on this forum about big boob representation in the media. Personally, I think there are more women with big boobs than most people realize. I think you just don't always notice.

Anyway, I am watching the Love is Blind Reunion on Netflix and noticing how many of the women have big boobs. They are all wearing formal gowns with their boobs on varying levels of display. They are all looking good!

ETA for clarity:

You don't have to watch reality tv. But for those who have netflix I think it might be fun to go check out the latest reunion episode.

It is just interesting to see how many of the women have big boobs and to see how they have styled themselves in their fancy dresses.

I know sometimes women posting here feel self-conscious about how their boobs look and this is a good opportunity to see women dressing their big boobs.

Bodysuit or rave outfits for dance show that fit 34F cups (Canada). Popilush?

Hey ladies,

I wear size medium, am 5’5 and 140 lbs and have pretty large boobs at 34F cups. I’m doing a burlesque dance show in January and am starting to look for outfit bases. It can be a one or two piece but it must stay put during movement. Last time I had a corset which held things in, but wasn’t a very comfortable fit for dancing.

I’ve been getting a lot Popilush ads about their bodysuits but I’m worried their pieces won’t hold my boobs in during dancing. Does anyone have experiences they can share?

Would love any and all recommendations!

No seriously. Over the summer, I was at the store and looked at myself in the security camera, and it hit me how huge they look 😭

Anyone here tried Nala Bras?

Nala Bras is an Aussie bra company who has lots of good prices and good variety in sizing and I’m not sure how well known it is? I’m just wondering because I just don’t have the money to try the nice UK brands everyone on here is recommending because I’m still searching for the right size/fit and I’m from Australia so the prices + shipping in AUD is a bit too expensive for me, anyone who’s tried Nala or knows anyone who has lmk if they’re good or not! :)

I’m struggling to find a bra/size that doesn’t give me 4 boobs with a bra on

Like the title says I can’t find a bra I can wear with a shirt without looking stupid. I’ve gotten 38 F from skims a 34/36 DDD/G from Uniqlo and idk where do go from here, I’ve just been wearing sports bras and I can’t keep doing that. If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it!

Oh also I have used those sites to find my bra size and it told me 36 G.

Anybody else lose and gain weight primarily in their boobs?

It’s so freaking frustrating, I’m pretty small in frame and ANY weight I gain seems to go to my boobs which makes me look even more unbalanced than I already do.

I gained a little weight recently, my body looks exactly the same but I suddenly am too big for my sports bra 🙄

I hate that I have to mitigate my personal style because of my genetics

I’m trying to start looking for a wedding dress, and I love 50s-70s specifically, always have, but when you have a chest size of 36J? Forget about it. They either don’t exist or they’ve been used and abused and forgotten over time.

I feel so defeated, I haven’t been able to wear vintage like I want to since my early to mid teens, all because of my bust. I can make the rest of me work (mostly) but my chest holds me back. So I stick to wearing plainer new clothes because otherwise it fits funny or it’s not in my size.

I used to have such a fun sense of style and I still want to have it, but how can I when I physically cannot afford a tailor to custom make it, and they just don’t exist in my size?

I’m just feeling so so so heartbroken looking for wedding dresses. How am I supposed to wear a bra? How am I supposed to find one I actually likes that fits? Especially because a lot of the ‘vintage inspired’ ones don’t do it for me, and the ones that do only make it for people with proportions not like mine.

I need to rant

I bought a size E cup sticky bra for an event and it is too small and in person stores DONT SELL SIZES BIGGER THAN DD and it’s too soon to the event to order online. I can’t even buy a regular bra because companies think everyone with big boobs are plus sized and sell the band size accordingly. Additonally, all the bras in size G cups are fugly. I’m tired of this! Wearing a cleavage top makes you a hoe. Baggy clothing makes you look fat. I’m tired of this. I want a breast reduction so bad

i’m so confused about bras

i tried the bra size calculator that everyone recommended, and all in all i'm disappointed but not surprised. it recommended me to start with a 36G/H which, while i sort of expected it, also disappoints me greatly because i got fitted over the summer and they told me i was 36 DD.

i feel a little silly because i knew that their measurements didn't line up with my own, but i assumed that they knew what they were doing so i must be wrong... sigh

anyone have any affordable recommendations for bras without underwire?

What style of bra would work with a top like this? All of the ones I own (balconette included) go up too far at the sides…

UK 32HH for reference : )

About bras..

Is it normal for the tops of your goobers to bounce a little as you walk? (think genshin goober physics but just the top of them) Or should I increase my cup size?

Also is it normal for the bra to have half the underband sticking to the bottom of the goobers instead of the part of the chest beneath them?

Thanks fellow goober owners

Anyone else have mixed feelings about getting a reduction? (Kind of a rant)

I recently found out I have a P cup (US size). For me it's getting to a point where I'm with my hands in my hair, I've always had a bigger chest and my partner loves using them as pillows when we are cuddling. One one hand I want to reduce to a nicer F cup so I'll still have a large chest but on the other hand I don't want to make my partner sad by taking away his pillows. On the other hand, he used to lay on my stomach before I lost weight so I did kinda already take away one of his spots. But thinking back on when we first met, he did tell me he was never a boob guy before he met me
