I thought I ask people (or those who like them) what is there favorite bra or bras. I have a few I like. Currently I like what is called barely there bra. It has no wires or hooks and fits pretty good.

My favorite bra is one that fits.

After spending and wasting too much time and money on ill fitting bras (some even hurt) I finally went to a shop that sells lingerie and breastforms.
The owner gave me a private fitting. Was I glad I went.
It was all very comfortable and discreet.
When I left I had several nice bras that fit and a nice pair of self adhesive breast forms.

Bali Cotton Craze - comfy & holds forms without showing

I like long lines and underwires.

If I had to limit myself to one favorite model, it would be my Fully longline posture bra - I have a black one and a white one. If I'm allowed a second, it would be a Bali underwire from my wife - she borrows it back once in a while.

I saw that Lane Bryant has a back-posture supporter that basically converts any bra into a longline posture bra. I just ordered it.

I have arthritis in my neck and upper spine - the back and shoulder support feels good to me at times.

My wife's favorite bra is the Bali Double Support.

These are my favorites and a probable future favorite.

I hope to read about the favorites of other members.

I too am looking at getting Breast Forms in the future.

Jessie

Hi Jessie,

They are a great investment. Take care of them and they will last forever.

Yes the best bras I have found to use with forms are the full coverage type (big enough cups to completely surround the form so it doesn't peek out or bounce out). Also I favor the seamless varieties so if I decide to wear a tight or semisheer top there are no lines in front.

Before that I bought ones that were fairly full but had a bit of rigidity to them - they don't work so well with full forms as they poke out or don't let the form fall like it wants. The thing is many bras push around breast tissue - forms don't react to "push up" or other unnatural forces.

Sometimes when I see something like an all-in-one that isn't so full coverage is order a C cup instead of a B to make more room. I've had mixed results with that.

In case anyone is looking for Breastforms, I bought wonderful self adhesive ones recently. They are amoena classic. I saw an ad in Girl Talk magazine.

What can I say the bra I like best is whichever bra I happen to have on. However, I have been wearing a sports bra with no padding under my drab T-shirts in the colder weather and it feels quite nice and compliments how I am feeling while also wearing my panties and pantyhose under my drab pants.

Hi Nancy,

Dressing en drabbe and wearing things under your clothes is as exciting, to me, as going out dressed sometimes.

I can't remember the last time I wore a bra though. Hmmm?

Beauty, if you haven't tried or worn a sports bra you really should give it a try. I find them, while in drab, to be comfortable and stimulating while out in public. To me it is almost just like being crossdressed in public.

I have some womens pants and polo tops that I sometimes wear on weekends when my wife and I are out running errands and shopping. I also have worn womens gym shoes while out. I have pierced ears so I have earrings on, small hoops, and more and more I do wear a little make up, mascara, eyebrow pencil and clear nail polish and if mostly outside I wear a natural lipstick.

Over the years I really have come to the point where wearing panties and pantyhose are just a part of my norm, but they still feel really nice on and in my mind. The wearing of a bra, now that seems to be my key item to make me feel like I am really dressed right.

I saw in this last weekends ads, I believe, a Sports Bra that has zipper in the front for the closer. Intersting, does any one know of this sports bra, I did my recycling and can not find the ad again.

I wonder if this is revenge for or something with males having zippers and well (someting about marry) incidents. so to speak.

Jessie

Hi Nancy,

Hmmm?

I will definitely think about it.

Thanks for the suggestion kind one!

I thought I would revive this string as I just got my self another new bra. It is a VS BBV unlined Full Coverage bra that hook in the front. The interesting thing about these type of bras is the fact pressure that I sometimes find from from where wearing rear closing bras is that these feel less presure off the front and shoulder. It can also do with the back design but I am not sure. I always wonder how much RD goes into designing a new bra as there seam to so many different types out there that do so many different things.

Jessie

Hi Jessie;

I'm sure that Victoria's Secret spends a lot of money on their bra designs, but no always for the comfort but the style. They are now advertising a new psuh-up bra. Question if I should get one.

I too wear only VS bras, namely from the SSS collection, front closure, sull coverage. Since brain tumors and hormones have given me 42Bs, i need the support at times. Often I sleep in them. But the racer back design does add comfort and support in the back without tugging on the shoulders.

Advantage of VS is they are easy to buy on-line. I also wear their bikini panties in the SSS line 24/7 - the satin feels so nice. I bought 2 pairs of heels, 1 stilleto clogs ($39) and 1 ankle boot ($19) cheaply. Check them out for other items than bras.
