Whats your favorite type of bras?

All mine the underwire pokes into me after only a month... Does that mean they are too tight?

Anyone have a really comfy brand?

Edit: I wear a 38 C right now... Which I dont know if its correct, its what ive worn since about 15yrs old.

    I like Victoria Secret but I'd rather wear a sports bra or no bra! I like to feel free and so do the girls. lol

    I only shop at Victoria's Secret. Their Body by Victoria and Biofit ones are the best. Totally worth the money if you ask me!

    When I was a D or a DD, Frederick's of Hollywood all the way. SUPER durable and comfy.

    I am a C now :-( and trying different brands...

    Is it that the underwire pokes you? or that it's coming out of its lining? If it comes out of the lining it actually means the bra is too big (counter intuitive, I know)... but it breaks through from the friction of the bra moving because it doesn't fit snuggly... If the underwire is just poking you, try a demi bra... the underwires on those are smaller.

    Was having that problem. I went to Soma and had a fitting. It fixed the problem. They were to big and cheap wal-mart brand. Got the new ones and love the feel. :flowerforyou:

    I love my Walcoal bras. They are not inexpensive, but they are well worth the money. And they make all your clothes look great.

    Body by Victoria full coverage. Never leave home without it.

    I always wear underwire or I look saggy. Smaller boobs can get away with no underwire though and look great.

    I get the pretty underwires and cut the underwire out.. then tighten up the straps.. they are very comfy that way and still do the job..

    I am not a fan of Victoria Secret bras. The wires have popped out of every one I've ever had. But maybe that's because I buy the cheapest ones they have. I'm a bit thrifty.

    This probably won't help you much, but the ones I love come from Lane Bryant. They fit well, and they last forever. Haven't had a single wire poke me yet. Plus, they often run sales on them!

    Its breaking though the fabric. No matter what bra I find. (We dont have VS here, but I can look online!) So im sure my bras arent greatly made.

    And the underwire breaks though on both ends... Its not only middle, but sometimes its poking into my side, sometimes its into my chest... Its annoying.

    you probably are wearing the wrong size as most of america is...

    I cant hook the link up from work but go to "lindas online" and click on the bra calculator....It is going to give a you a size that u are probably not wearing. it is fairly accurate.

    I wear a 30g or 32FFFF....these sizes sound odd...I CAN fit into a 34DD, but it does not fit right. I wore the wrong size for years and years. Once you get into a properly fitting bra you will NEVER go back! VS bras are rubbish IMO...they look cute but they do not EVER fit me correctly..maybe other girls ..but not I.

    this is my alltime favorite bra, very natural, no shaping but has a wee bit of lining, no push up. Creates an overall natural look with subtle lift.
