What is the most comfortable bra you have ever bought?

If you can step into your bra why doesn't your bust fall out underneath the band?
🤔😬
Or are everyone else's breasts still perkily in place??

When a teenager my mum showed ne how to fasten my bra round my midriff , swirle it round , arms through straps .Still do it that way ! Also wear stretchy ones - no fastenings!!

Why do you all need to get your hands around your back to fasten your bra I never undo mine I just step into mine have for many years

Me too! I have never been able to do up my bra at the back, even as a teenager. Since injuring a shoulder I can't pull on over my head either.

And me. I’ve never done mine up at the back.

Was professionally fitted with some 34 Es but now find them too tight. Learnt that 36DD was same cup fitting but allowed for more back room. As mentioned above, they seem to want one to wear tight bras which I find very uncomfortable. I need cotton and comfy.

Coming back here to say I visited Bravissimo and was measured, although she didn't measure me. She just said what size I was by looking at me, and produced a great bra I really love and it didn't cost too much.

Yes, it is a pocketed mastectomy bra by Royce (my previous favourite was by them too), so I did get the VAT discount as well. My bra size hasn't changed in 15 years!

I love it so much I'm going to get another!

M&S full cup total support unwired bra.
Took me ages to find this one and it is a substantial bra which I feel confident in.

My most comfortable btas came from temu.

Felina bras are very comfortable,wider straps ,beautifully made.About £ 70 but worth it.

I used to buy Bravissimo bras then they stopped doing my favourite style. Currently wearing a George at Asda bra and it’s perfectly comfy.

I have walcoal bras and find them very comfortable.

Since my rotor cuff shoulder injury I have been unable to put my left hand behind my back so could not fasten a bra
Solved the problem by buying front fastening bras from the big river company.

"Gemma" and only £13.99, 90% cotton and so comfortable I shall never return to back fastening. Very soft but supportive and even my uncomfortable shoulder doesn't object.

It was probably a man who invented back fastening as a way to make ladies ask for help. Well, guess what? We figured it out.

Now we are done with that stupid design.

I’ve yet to find that Holy Grail … the comfortable bra.

Over the years I must have spent hundreds of £s on bras, yet comfort still alludes me.

I’ve been measured at Bravissimo and recommended a bra size I could hardly breathe in. Same with M&S. I’ve tried Sloggi and all manner of slip on camis with concealed bras etc.

The search is so expensive!

I’m afraid I currently wear a stretchy camisole, which is not a bra at all (so no support really) but it’s comfortable.

I’ve more or less given up on bras - sorry to be of no help to the original poster (but at least you know you’re not alone)🙈

Ok so I wear strappt dresses on holiday and currently wear a wired strapless (multiway if you choose) bra ftom M&S. I have recently bought replacement and can't do them up easily and once done it they do not fit the same. I'm a 38DD and am looking for recommendations of a comfortable, supportive, easy to get on bra for under my many holiday dresses. Anyone got a go to they can recommend?

Just that really. I’ve just turned 70, and although I always used to dress really smart for work, comfort is my main priority now, as I suffer from very bad back pain, and seldom leave the house now. After a long (and quite expensive) search for comfortable trousers/tops to wear in the house, I finally came across M&S Modal rich pyjama tops and bottoms. They are great to wear as lounge wear, not just PJs? (Wouldn’t wear them outside though) but they actually (in my mind) don’t look like PJs, more like casual lounge wear.

My question is - I need a comfortable bra!! I’ve been wearing Sloggi comfort tops for a while now, but the last couple of bras that I’ve bought haven’t been up to their usual standard. My size hasn’t changed, usually a 36C, but they just don’t seem to fit as they did.

I’ve been looking online for an alternative, but haven’t been able to find one. It has to be non-padded, pull on (i.e. no hooks), giving enough support, and fairly thick straps. Does such a thing exist?

Please share your bra purchase experiences and tell me if you ever found the best fitting, most comfortable bra you ever had. I desperately need to find one! I have purchased many bras online, and have had to send them back (thank you Royal Mail for your pick up service) but I would appreciate any recommendations.

I would be prepared to pay a reasonable price for the perfect fitting comfort bra. I did look at Bravissimo, but their cup sizes are large - think they start at a size D cup?

Can anyone recommend their most comfortable bra?

Thank you.

I go to bravissimo for my bras . They have an excellent range of styles and options. It might be worth looking in there . I found that I was wearing the completely the wrong size.

I’ve never had a comfortable bra. I regard them as the same as Victorian corsets - designed to torture women for the pleasure of men.

I wear older ones at night. So comfy. I have for a very very long time worn a very lightweight version of same - 10 years? and I haven't drooped too much at all, but am only a B.

Wyllow3 I have recently purchased a Flexifit crop top, I’m wearing it today and so far it’s very comfortable. Easy to step into and pull on. I agree with you about the sizing, I wear size 14 dresses and trousers, but after looking at the bra measurements online I bought the size 16 GG-H and it’s perfect.

I agree with you Big Bloomers pull on bras are fabulous. I found wired bras too uncomfortable after reconstruction surgery following mastectomies for breast cancer . Big bloomers bras are the only onese I will wear now . Their seamless knickers are also the most comfortable I've ever worn .

I had an M&S so-called expert bra fitter measure me with a knot in her tape measure.

I was friends with a lady who had worked at M&S for years.

She said bra fitting was one of the worst jobs, she preferred working in the cafe.

With a rotator cuff injury it is impossible to do the recommended "fasten at the front and swivel the bra round" with the one hand/arm that has normal movement. My injured shoulder was extremely painful and almost completely restricted all that arm's movements.

My Gemma front fastening bras from Amazon are recommended for post surgery and give me great relief and comfort. Putting the bra on is a bit like putting on a coat with the injured arm going on first with little movement needed, which made it relatively easy. The shoulder straps are wider and a little padded and the cups are easy to move to accommodate the contents.

Even though my injury has now improved, it is unlikely to recover to full movement so I am glad to have found this solution and recommend anyone suffering from similar injuries to try them.

Phew, I was beginning to think I was the only one in the world to fasten by bra at the front then spin it around.

Have always put my bra on this way.

Never do the fastening at the back like you see in films after the couple have just had sex and need to get back to their respective spouse post haste!

Same here, I put bra’s on this way from being a teenager.Always thought that the way they do it in films was just for the look of it.

Go to the Boob or Bust website for (unbiased) advice about fit - it was a revelation to me.
Always found bras uncomfortable, wide back, small boobs and not much choice in the 38A I thought I needed.
Found comfort, surprisingly with a 32D! No, I didn't believe it either!
Advice there on different styles for different shapes too.
Need to remeasure now I have lost a lot of weight though :-(
My gripe is still that manufacturers of sports bras seem to think that small boobs don't need support.

Look no further, these are great slip on. The fit is very slightly small, I usually buy 12 but get a 14 in these. Removable pads, and they give you a decent shape, probably less so if you are big, but they have a similar one for F +
