    One word: Spillage...only place I can get one that doesn't cause spillage is VS. Would be nice if every company had that.

    A bra that holds you up and doesn't leave marks on your chest between your boobs or by your armpits from the wire...ugh, no matter how I'm measured , that's always the result.

    comfortable and able to wear for a longer time. Not too tight on the back, my back starts hurting if I wear my bra longer than 8 hours.

    I hate when you wear a fitted shirt and you can see the indent on your back that it makes. Super unflattering. And I know I wear the right size too but that doesnt matter. Yick

    As a bigger busted person... personally i would love to just be able to find a cheap "cute" bra. Not tow straps in basic white,black and tan.

    NO underwire! there MUST be something better than wearing a steel girder against my skin - the most uncomfortable part of (full figure) bras is the damn underwire and you can't hardly find any without it. If you do, they barely support at all - I don't think a BRA should be this difficult to make in the 21st century.
    If you make me a bra I can wear all day without feeling I am being tortured, you'll have a customer for life

    I totally misread the title as "best brasserie treats". It must be lunch time!

    underwires that do not punch their way out of their channels. i'm naturally small-busted and actually like non-padded underwire bras. i'm constantly pushing the wires back in on all of my bras.

    Minimizer!!! Shaping, lift, smoothing for sides and back. Its hard to find a bra that does this all in 1.

    It would have an underwire but not poke you. It would be lacey and pretty but also have a lining but no padding whatsoever so that way you dont look like you have big boobs (i wanna be flat chested). and it would last 4 years like victorias secret bras used to and only cost $30.

    As a large busted woman, I think this would be fabulous!

    bras for the tweens and younger teenagers! Get rid of the stupid little bows or flowers in the middle...take away most of the padding...padded bras for a 12 year old, really!

    For me: A bra that moves with me so i don't have to keep readjusting it!

    All right ladies it seems that for the most part, no underwire is a must! no padding if you are a a size C or above! and probably padded inserts if you feel the need to smooth out!

    Thanks and keep'em coming!

    What do you all think about an actuall wider band (that goes around yiour back? that would help with the corset feel! and i am thinking maybe a smoother transition from actual cup to strap for that pinch everyone is speaking of!!!!!!!!!!!! i am loving this, i can actually visualize this product!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Oh yeah I am sure no one wants it to look like a mumu bra so sleek but efficient???????????

    Straps that stay up that isn't a T-back. My straps are always falling down and it's annoying. I tighten them and then my bra starts to ride up (I'm on the smaller side). I'm not fond of T-backs though.

    And I agree with the wires poking through. Sometimes I have to take a pair of pliers and bend the wire so it's not stabbing me.

    I like underwire if it doesn't poke and come out, but would go for non-underwire if it worked holding me up and I'm only a B cup. No back or underarm indents from the band, STRAPS that STAY UP!!, between $20 and $30, cute, very little padding just enough so no headlights shine :) If you make this PLEASE tell me about it!

    One for the well endowed which is pretty, supportive, but doesn't have massive straps!

    I got one more: supporting when lying on one side.

    I wore a strapless bra yesterday...every time I lifted an arm, down went the bra...I spent the day hicking it back up...how about a strapless bar that actually stays in place? ( I am average size...36 b to c, depending on bra)

    Great posts people! I am putting these ideas on paper right now and i will post a picture as soon as I get the drawing finished! then off to the Singer to sew it! i will use top quality materials and give you guys a price break down and my friend will be my guinea pig! so i will post pics before and after for her too! It seems that the problem isnt really with the whole bra, but the straps and the support of the cups! and the coverage of the cups also!
