I've moved from a 36Humungous to a 34Gigantic, and I suspect there may be more bras available in a Gigantic cup size. I'll wait for a bit longer and maybe I'll be down to a 34Freakin-Big size. That would open up a whole new world of possiblities!! I know what you mean about clothing options and bra size. It seems that for many years lots of styles are for girls with small chests. All the cute tops, tanks, sundresses... stuff like that are not made for women with breasts. I'd love to wear some of those spaghetti strap tanks or halter tops but they don't seem to make bras that work with those and you usually can't fit into the shirt anyway. I remember being so annoyed when they started putting lots of padding and gel packs in the bikini tops. I can't find a bikini top in my size in the first place and now they're pumping up all the tops for girls who don't have the size. What about us girls that have it? Seems that everyone wants to have more up top so the fashion industry makes the clothes to help you look that way, but the the one's that have it naturally still don't have anything to wear. I've had some transformations of my own in that department. I'm still wearing my pre pregnancy bra size but after two children and breast feeding gravity has taken it's toll. I think if as you trim down though your figure starts to look more shapely again. K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am completely flat chested and have always felt like shirts were made to look good on bigger breasted women. It's always been frustrating trying to find bathing suits that enhance my breasts rather that flatten them. Secret's makes a bra now (Body Shaper) that actually helps me to look bigger. Not that I would want to have huge ones, but it sure would be nice to be bigger than an A. I guess A is better than Nearly A (my bra size before children). That's one of the reasons I work so hard to build up my arms, my upper body is so tiny!!!!! I feel like no matter how much I shrink my lowere body, I am still bigger on the bottom half than the top half. I guess there are negatives to both big and small.

This reminds me of that episode where her water bra springs a leak at the art gallery For those of you looking for bigger sized sports bras try title9.com or roadrunner sports. I wear a sports underwire UNDER a sports bra top when I workout. Colleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 If you want spaghetti strap tank tops or halter tops, then I have the site for you! This is a company in the UK who deal ONLY with pretty bras for big busted girls. The lady who started it had the same problem as us, small back, big boobs. She got sick of the situation, so decided to start her own business. And she makes tank tops/halter tops with built in bras! And I'm not talking about " up to a C cup " built in bras, she does big cup sizes....yay! She also has a shirt designed for big boobs, which is a great idea. I always avoid shirts because of the straining buttons. Anyway, check it out and let me know what you think. I've never been able to afford anything, but they send me their catalogues each season and I drool over it all. Oh, and they make bikinis too! http://www.bravissimo.com/home.html > In a message dated 3/28/2004 10:52:32 PM Eastern Standard Time, > writes: > That's so exciting for me, it's one step > closer towards a matching lingerie set!

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 Just wanted to thank those who posted that they found a good fit at 's Secret in the Body by line. My daughter has been trying to get me to buy a bra there for some time, but I always felt the store was for young women; not middle agers like me. Today she went with me to V.S. and I finally found a bra that fit. Gives me a nice shape too since I'm at that saggy age. Barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
