Re: Bra Vent (Ladies whose cup runneth over will appreciate this)

I wear this one:


Satin Tracings by Bali

It's a little granny-looking, but it doesn't show under blouses.

Sometimes I wear a blouse open with a tank , but as Michal said, it is a more casual look.

I like Old Navy tanks ( from the pajama section) , b/c they are cheap & long.

I have some NY & Co, ones with a a shelf bra, but the shelf isn't big enough & over a bar, that is jsut too much squishing & the underwire one I have isn't enough support to wear without a bra.

I actually bought tanks from Old Navy. I can't buy the ones with the built in bra. Doesn't do a thing for me, but the ones at Old Navy don't have them. No peep so with buttondowns here! Especially with white dress shirts!

I'm a big fan of the Goddess 3910 bra:

(I cut the stupid bows off. I hate those darn things. They remind me of being 6 and wearing undershirts.)

Re: Bra Vent (Ladies whose cup runneth over will appreciate this)

I'm glad there's been some suggestions of plain minimizers - they're good ones - they really reign them in?

I was at Kohl's today and they definitely did not have plain minimizers. They had plain "big girl" bras, but not minimizers.

I saw that Satin Tracings one in the store but didn't have my size - glad to know it doesn't show through.


You don't even want to know what I've gone through the past couple of days to find tankini tops that actually keep the girls supported. Unless they have the actual cups or banded shelf bra inside, the girls are hanging out by the bottom of my rib cageChat Icon

Although they're in England, they have the best strappy tops! BRAVISSIMO.COM
They also carry lingerie & bathing suits for those who are "blessed" on top.


I'm pretty sure they offer free shipping on returns.

Nah...you can get it for $24-36! I've never paid $68.


Georgette's in Hicksville carries them. I used to call them up and make sure they had my size in stock, have them put them to the side and then go pick them up. Chat Icon

Ugh I feel your pain! I still can't button the stupid button down shirts even with the minimizer...I usually just button the bottom and wear a tank top underneath.

Definitely try the Bali minimizers...they're not the most attractive looking things but they are seamless and don't have a lot of lace!

Re: Bra Vent (Ladies whose cup runneth over will appreciate this)

I am in need of getting some new bras, minimizer and regulars. Where do you guys go? I just bought 2 from Kohl's like 3 months ago and they were awful. I stopped wearing them after a week and went back to my older bras, but these bras have seen better days. Any suggestions of bras and where you got them from?
