Lane bryant has great bras there i am in a 42 DDD and i hate them but the best bras i found are there.

I don't have any suggestions, but I feel your frustration too. I'm a 34DD. I have a hard time with bras causing ugly indents that you can see through shirts. It drives me nuts. I have found a victoria secret bra that has wide & thick shoulder straps that are comfortable, but still cause the indents in shirts.

Doesn't it also drive you mad how limited the selection is for anything in the D range?? Even VS doesn't make everything in these sizes. I love the PINK line....they are so cute & look comfy.....but they only go to size C.

I am a 34D, I have problems with getting double boob. Vickis has too new bras that you might like.

I have the second bra in 2 colors & I love it, it's one of the most comfy bras ever & looks great under sheer tees.

I also tried on the new Body bra & it made my boobs look amazing, but there was so much padding & wires that it dug into my ribs & was very uncomfortable to wear.

-All the bras above come in a 34DD

I've always heard that a bra is something you should really pay attention to. I just can't afford the really good bras, so mine usually come from Wal Mart. I do try to make sure they fit correctly, it's not always easy.

I don't know how close to Chicago you are but Opera has a bra store downtown for women with large breasts. My mom has a few of them and she feels better than she ever has. I'm thinking about traveling that way myself since I am a 34 DD and have nothing but plain, ugly bras from Victorias Secret. Good luck in finding the right bra for you.

You can get wonderbras at Kohls for a really good price. I have the wonder of stretch demi bra, but no padding & it works really well. Very comfortable & flattering & not expensive especially with all the sales.

I am a newly retired breast feeding mom so I know what your talking about with the perkin them up thing. I wear a 44 B sometimes a C. I recently fell in love with the bras from the Avenue. They have a new style that really holds you up. They are always running sales like buy one get one 1/2 off. Hope this helps.

Hey, ladies, my husband just ask what I was reading & I told him about this thread. He said he'll walk around with you and hold them up for you . He said you can call him Rex the WonderBra. You have to forgive him, poor thing, he's had to settle for 36B's.

my hubby says when i get mine done he want me to get some in the front and the back so he always have a handful no matter which direction i'm standing in!!!

Stacy London on "What Not to Wear" says most women are actually wearing the wrong size bra and recommends that we all get fitted at a good department store or where they sell good undergarments. I saw a bra fitting expert from Nordstroms on the Oprah Winfrey show that said women tend to wear the cup size too small and the band size too big. Also a new bra should feel tight at first because it will loosen up as it's worn, just like shoes. Bra sizes can vary according to style and brand just like jeans! And if your weight goes up or down as little as 5 pounds your bra size changes.

Hi guys do you get bendon over there? It's an NZ brand and they do a GREAT sports bra I'm a 38D and those puppies don't move in my Bendon sports bra. And I got an AWESOME pink lacy bendon bra on special (normally Bendon are a bit too expensive for me and I'm perky as anything in it!!) The underwire doesn't dig in anywhere and I can almost forget I have a bra on!

I'm definitely going to have to buy a few more sports bras. I wasn't wearing one when I ran around the agility ring with Dougal and when I reviewed the video I was surprised I didn't get a black eye LOL!
