Another load of bras - all failures :( :( :(

Sometimes I really think there will be nothing right for my boobs, and I get so sick and tired of this whole ordeal :( Just tried on yet another big order from Bravissimo - and nothing fits! One was too small in the cup, one was maybe too large in the cup, and the rest was just ugggghhhh wrong on so many things, not necessarily size related... A lot of them looked like they were made to make my boobs point downwards! I am just not good friends with those huge upper-sections - all they do on me is just point my boob further and further down. I also have a bit of a jojo-ing weight, and my last order came at a point where I was at my lowest, so it is possible that I have gained weight since, which just further complicates things...
The Lola Basque that I had been so awaiting was very difficult to close, both because it was quite tight around the hips (though it was too loose a size up some time ago!), and because it's 12 hooks! A lot of work, got my nail caught on a hook, eek! Boobs look ok in it, have to consider the rest... May just return it for the larger size again!
And the Boudoir Beau is just driving me crazy... This is the 3rd size I've ordered it in!
Uggggh, may just stick to Ewa Michalak, not that they are great for me either, but at least I can count on what fitting issues I have there, and I can get something that doesn't make me sad to look at my boobs! I am pretty happy with my boobs, but so many bras just make them look so bad :(

  • Oh dear, so sad to hear this.
    I just wanted to say I feel your pain on the upper section thing.. I have yet to see a woman that that kind of construction works on. This is why I seem to be leading Curvy kate antipropaganda - they just make the stupid upper section bigger and bigger and the boobs just look like that sad droopy dog in them.
    I am courious to hear what styles suffer from the same problem - just to be sure to avoid them :)

  • I'm sorry you had no luck with your order :(
    I can so relate to that. I tried like 50 bras at least only to find a few that fit decently. I just hate too big upper sections. It never looks good. I could get the Alana to look decently because it's borderline too big and I have tightened the straps very much for good shape and uplift.
    Which ones did you order?
