Victoria's Secret has added size 30 A-C bras to 11 styles in their main collection
Before, they seemed to have only 30A and 30B in the Pink section
Now hopefully they keep increasing to 30DDD and beyond!

I am lookg for bra models that have some unusual gore pendants (in other words something different than just a bow).
Help me out, guys, will you?

I often take a look at their website as I’m completely in love with their designs. Sadly their constructions seem to not quite work for me (I’ve tried some halfcups and one balconette).
So when I saw 2 new shapes, supposedly designed with fuller busts in mind, I was very curious to try them on. I also read this post ... https://comicsgirlsneedbras.wordpress.com/2016/08/17/curve-nyc-preview-aubade-ss17/ and I suddenly felt an urgent need to put my hands on these beauties.
Yesterday I stepped into their local store and tried on two bras, L’Aubade à l’amour emboîtant comfort (full cup) and corbeille confort (half cup), both in black.
Even though the size range is still poor (it ends at the G cup), I have to say they’ve done a great work when it comes to the construction! I tried a 85(70)E in both styles as they didn’t have any 80(65)F in stock (but this size does exist). The band was too big but the cup fitted great (for reference, I wear 65F in EM). The full cup shape is actually a balconette – there’s a little more coverage than in EM SM style but I definitely wouldn’t call it a full cup. It features rather narrow wires and the shape is natural but rounded with a very good uplift for an unpadded bra.
But my heart was stolen by the halcup confort shape. There are two major differences between this shape and the classic halfcup (corbeille) – the cups in the classic version have the same height on the gore and under the armpit. In the comfort version, the underwires run higher under the armpit area and therefore enclose better my breast tissue. This is also much more comfortable than my 85D - Aubade » Reine Des Glaces, there’s no tension in this area. The other difference is in the band – unlike the classic halfcup, it features the U shaped band. The shape in this style is even better than in the full cup – much more uplifted and rounded, still centred. The underwires are similarly narrow. This shape allows more projection than the classic halfcup. The both styles, comfort full cup and halfcup, have very high gores.
I’m totally in love in this new construction and I would love to have one in my drawer. I thought that none of the recent colourways was interesting enough to buy it, but the black one is stunning. I hope I won’t give in before EM releases her new bras.
Have any of you already tried the Aubade’s new constructions?

Okay, now I'm going to have to try that new comfort half cup bra. Thanks for the review, vesela_krava !
Werso makes bras in bands 65-125 and cups A-K!
Can this be the new Ewa Michalak? They also have like a gazillion models, I am just adding them to the database.

It'll be interesting to see how they scale ot larger sizes - thats why i like EM over comexim
Nice! It uses EU cup measurements and band size, rather than the EU Band/UK cup measurements of Ewa Michalak.
I like that some bra models have multiple colors.

Just wanted to give a heads up - there are a bunch of Curvy Couture, Parfait By Affinitas, and Curvy Kate bras over at Zulily right now. Seems like mostly 32 - 40 bands and C - H UK (I think) cups, but there are a few outside that range, too.

Can anyone tell me how Zulily works? I've seen it here and there and I am curious.
No mystery to Zulily other than you order as usual. The one downside is there is no returns/exchanges so you need to be familiar enough with the brand to know your size. They ship later after the event and they have received the products ordered so there is some wait time for items ordered. Hope that helps Scharminkeltje .

Translation is often rough, but they definitely have a storefront. They use words that translate to "shop" and "store" consistently, and they're listed as 'Shopping/Retail' on Facebook, complete with store hours.
Thanks. Do they design the bras they sell? Or are they from other brands?

... welllll looks like I'm going to have to add all hundreds of you bras to Bratabase so that people can search on Bratabase instead
Anyhow check out Twin Lingerie. It's a Polish lingerie company that seems to make 28-42 (?) and lots of D-FF. When I've been through all the hundreds of bras and added them to the site we will know for sure!

Comexim has the Dottie bra available in limited sizes (65H, 65K, 70G, 85G) for 110zł
Do the cups run small? I really want this but they don't have my size (and they can't make the 3HC)

There was a brand posted a few months ago. It is quite a "new" brand. They didn't have a wide-range of sizes but they had a 65E. Their bras were so sexy and I just forgot that brand. If anyone can share Polish bra brands that are still new, please please let me know. Thank you.

Will you also do Sculptresse by Panache? I would really really appreciate it if you could!

I always love how Claudette has a different perspective than most brands that make full-bust sizes. This season they're introducing a T-shirt bra (that I'm oddly excited about), more outerwear items, and a sleep line names the Cat's Pajamas that I want everything from. The colors for Dessous are awesome this year!
Today I’m continuing my coverage of SS17 collections with Claudette!

I always love Claudette's looks too. I can't wait until they are just a little more consistent. I know they are a pretty young company so I'm hoping that comes in time....soon! Dessous is one of my favorite looks and I love the paramour too ... I wish all the colors fit me. But my bank account it happy they don't
Yes, I know what you mean, revisa - I love the styling of the Dessous, and I have one that's a terrific fit, but the sizing is so unreliable that I can't find another!

Omg. I was just thinking to myself about email Comexim to add the Rose 3hc (non longline) to my order.
What size would a 65G be? 30F?
Eta: I know I saw the bra earlier on Comexim's site, it's not there now.
I hate these online shops. They buying off the stock and later we cant get our customised bras :/ plus for Europe it's not really worth ordering from the US. I do not wish them well

I was given a new Panache brochure for season spring/summer 2017 that is presented at tradeshows in these days. So I was thinking that maybe you also want to look at this new season

Tutti Rouge this season keeps their flirtatious feminine style. They've brought some new silhouettes, and they've been listening to customer feedback about sizing and fit. I'm excited to see how this season does for them!

Can you guys recommend me some of your local bra brands? I would like to try some non-British, non-Polish brands, so far I had success with Admirál, but there must be so much more!
I would be particularly interested in brands from Czech Republic, Slovakia, Ukraine, Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Balkan countries, maybe Scandinavia.

Came across this Latvian site the other day:
http://www.starstyle.lv/en
Don't know if they have any Latvian/Baltic brands, though.
I'm not sure how long they've been on the site, but I noticed two new Comexim styles today: Tina and Honey Cake. I like the Tina print, it reminds me of some past season Comexim aesthetics that I missed out on. Honey Cake looks like a white lace version of Pioson Ivy to me. What do you think?

Beautiful. It looks a bit shallow for the model. Hmm...

Tiny store that punches above its weight. Carries mainly 30A through 40G in various brands, everything tends to be shallow and broad wired though.

There's some irresistible styles next season from Cleo and Panache! I love the sporty details on both collections, and am excited to see less "waterproof bra" swimsuits. Most of the silhouettes are continuity, so there are no real surprises in this one.

Wow, nothing up to a JJ and only 2 up to a J cup?
Yeah unfortunately most of the full bust brands seem to think very large breasted women don't swim... They will have Paloma (a dark brown one piece) available 30-38 D-K and Anya (a black one piece) available 30-40 D-K. Most of their continuity bikinis will be available in J cups as well. But still disappointing if you're a fan of the fun colors.

Guys, this is my favorite collection of the season I think. There's so much I would wear. I love the graphic florals with a pop of color. Most of the collection is so light and fresh, and overall I think it's a great season for Freya.
Freya SS17 collection is fresh, graphic, and filled with life. It's got everythi

Wow, I love almost every bra from this collection! :)
Ahhh, I love most of these. I agree that the pistachio colorway is amazing. No idea if the Hero would fit me, and I can't afford it anyway, but still...
They've had 30s available online-only for years, but it used to be only in one or two designs. It's doubtful they'll carry very many in this size-range n their stores, unless they put them in the "Pink" section. It's hard to even find 32 bands in stores. It's always seemed that this company cannot accept that someone who wears a size 30-32 band would need cups larger than their idea of "C".
It would be a great marketing move on their part to vastly extend their size range! The only other US mainstream brand I've ever seen that regularly carries 32 bands is Soma. If VS got some advise from Panache and Freya, or became more like Bravissimo, they may have a comeback on the market.
