    nordstrom has some great bras, but they're pricey. justmysize.com has some great bras for us chesty chicks and for pretty affordable prices.

    PS: I'm an H so I def understand your pain....

    I went from a 36C to a 38DD since having my lil one. And so far they haven't shown any signs of going back down! Any suggestions on where to get some good, supportive sport bras? My Wal-Mart ones just don't cut it anymore!!!

    Honestly, the most supportive bra I ever owned was a Wal-Mart nursing sports bra. SERIOUSLY! I'm kinda sad I sized down out of it because even my awesome new sports bras don't give me that much support. :/

    Look into Soma. They are supportive and have a line that does not cut into your back. For the longest time I had worn full coverage bras from VC or Fredericks. Go for Fredericks first. And still had to wear a Genie bra on top of it. Some times it's a booger have huge honkers.

    Hello! You and I are the same size. I found a good bra at Kohl's. Northstroms is also another good place to go but they will be a bit more pricey than Kohls. Hope this helps.

    I'm a 32G and the only sort that keep these babies in check are Shockabsorber bras! They aren't overly flattering (a bit like scaffolding really) but they do the job and stop the majority of the jiggle.

    i feel your pain :) i usually wear 2 sports bras and a compression tank ( sometime the tank even has a shelf bra!) I am hesitant to invest in a $50+ sports bra because I am in the process of loosing weight and when i wear all that I do have very little movement .
  • Another UK contribution - 36 FF and the only one that works, stays in place, holds me in, pushes me up and doesn't cut me in 2 is Max Sports Bra by Shock Absorber... Those bad boys do the business for me!!!!!!

    Also just another recommendation, go to a decent underwear shop and get measured specifically for a sports bra because your size for "every day wear" is not always the same as the size you need for a sports bra... Once you're measured get the hell out of there and buy online so you don't have to pay extortionate prices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Look after your breasts ladies and they will look after you! :wink:

    Don't know if it's any use, but here in the UK there's a company called Bravissimo http://www.bravissimo.com/ that specialises in bras and other clothing for curvy women. You can probably order and they're very helpful if you need to exchange, but even then, you might find the bras in US shops when you've seen what they stock.

    I recently discovered that Debenhams has lots of bras for fuller figures too - don't know if you get them in the US but again, you could order, or get some suggestions of bras to shop for! I love their Gorgeous line, their own brand - really comfy and much lighter than my previous favourite which was Panache.

    Lane Bryant's Clinique bras are made from the same company as VS but have wider straps and are super supportive. Still expensive but the have half off or buy one get one a few times a year. I'm a 38G and they hold them fine :)

    ^^This^^ They are amazing! I don't fit the clothes there anymore but the Clinique bras are priceless!

    my boobs are fake, and it really hurts when they bounce around.
    i have 2 champion bras, and they don't support me at all.
    the only bras i find in my size that keep me supported is victoria's secret, which SUCKS cause they're expensive ):

    I don't know what I would do without my Playtex 18 Hour support bras. They are phenomenal. I get them at Kohl's.
