Bras are literal pains.

I am going through a change in my roots again. They are getting wider- on both sides. Which means I need narrower and narrower gores. Fortunately I know how to sew but working 12 hour days for the last two weeks and not having time to fix the problem/having to wear the bras the way they are for hours- I have bruises where the wires have been riding down.. Actual bruises. The wires are only riding down at the center, so I know it’s not the width. And bras with vertical flat wires as well as verticals ride down so it’s not wire shape (although the vertical flats don’t do it as much- they follow my imf way better). I decided today it must be gore width.

At least I hope because if not I will be forced to try to find unwired bras as that will be my last option.

  • Love4Pollinators did this happen to you? Did your center tissue push the gore down? Or was it more gore resting on tissue pain?

  • @cupandahalf Both the gore wires sitting on most of one breast and the incessant sliding down into my ribs caused pain. Just wireless bras for me now.

    Sincerely, I hope you find a solution that is both supportive and comfortable!!!
