Bra help!!

I usually buy VS bras but lately I have been very disappointed with them. I wear them for a few days and then they don't fit properly anymore. My problem is that I am full...not big, just full. I feel like the perfect bra would be between a 34-36 C but 34 is too small and 36 is big but I get it anyway because what other choice do I have?
I DREAD bra shopping for this reason.
Any bra suggestions? Chat Icon
TIA

I went to Bloomingdales to get measured and the salesperson suggested a wacoal bra. I loved it. But lately I have been wearing the VS very sexy secret embrace bra and love it.

Re: Bra help!!

if you get professionally measured, that will help you find the right size bra.
i am full also and now buy chantelle bras.
they give me great coverage and keep the girls where they should be!

Re: Bra help!!

I'm the same size and have the same problem. The thing is...you have to go for bras that have full coverage. No demis or push ups. Believe it or not, I love Gap bras. I just got a VS bra that is working pretty well for me. It's the perfect fit one.

Re: Bra help!!

All of my VS bras are stretched out too Chat Icon I actually went to this place in Hicksville called Georgette's for my wedding to get a corset and they ended up fitting me for an everyday bra as well. It fits perfectly and is very supportive (no stretching) - it is a Maidenform bra. You can get them anywhere, but the actual fitting really helped - I found out I was wearing the wrong size and everything. Hope this helps!Chat Icon
