Tesco bras

faithcecilia

I am only little - 32B usually, A at the moment, so though I'd grab a couple of cheapy Tesco bras. But they only do padded in a 32A! Dear Tesco bra designers, just because I have negligable assets, it doesn't mean I want pretend ones instead:cool::o

My 32DD's from Tesco are padded, as in the cups are 3mm thick all over. Is that what you were after or the ones with the removabe pads, or the padding at the bottom that boosts you up a bit?

TBH, their 2for£3 non padded underwired bargain ones! They do a 34A or a 32D, but not a 32A. And their teen bras are awful - no self respecting teen would wear them!!!

Now, M&S teen bras are lovely...just not supercheap!

Oh it's much worse if you have a huge back (because you're overweight) but need a small cup-size. I have the devil of a job finding plain bras with no underwires, no padding and no seams in the cups. I resorted to 2 for £3 ones is Asda in desperation and even they had seams. I only need them for work to camoflage my nips, I don't need any support.

BitterAndTwisted - have you tried just a sticky plaster over your nipples? I've done that a few times when I've gone without a bra.

It's equally hard to find decent bra's if you are a small back size but large cup size (32H! Eeeek!) I have to pay about £30 minimum at bravissimo as 'normal' places never have them.

Bitterandtwisted have you tried shoetailor catalogue as they have every size bra and are often quite reasonably priced but not my style at all.

Oh, I could do that I suppose, I'd never thought of it. But what do I do about the movement? I mean they're small and pretty perky for my age but I don't want them jiggling about! Maybe sticking plasters and a very tight-fitting vest might do the trick. Of course, one of those "T-shirt bras" would solve all but I've never worn a padded bra and I think I'd feel odd with a proper, adult woman's bosom. I guess there's worse problems to have.

Tesco do 2 crop tops for £3 too, just again not small enough for me, would need an XS but start at small.

You think you've got problems? Try finding any kind of bra in la senza in a 36AA

I have the same problem being 36G, but I got some gorgeuos ones in Debenhams, though still £20-30, I got them while there was 20% off. Also very helpful staff, I waited in the changing room while they ran in and out trying to get a good fit. XD

I have a chum who's not an average size and for Christmas her partner gave her some money to go on a little visit to Rigby & Peller. She came back with three bras, none of them particularly pricey, about £25-£30 each, and she looked sensational in them. They recommended only washing them by hand once a week and they've lasted for ages. I've seriously considered going for a fitting and buying some myself but I have rather different priorities at the moment, like paying the rent
