Cupcase
I apologize if this has already been covered, but I put "cupcase" in the search bar and there were 0 results.
If you haven't heard of it (I hadn't until recently) here's the amazon link http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/s/ref=is_box_?k=cupcase
I travel a lot, and the last and worst part of packing is always trying to find a place that will hopefully minimize bra squishing/damaging. I've looked at other bra travel/storage cases, but I just can't get a case that looks like a lacy bra on the outside. Even if I did like the style (and I don't) it would be a terrible idea to bring something like that to most of the places I travel.
But then I came across the cupcase... It looks like the perfect solution, not just for bras but for jewelry and whatever else you may use it for. I ordered the C/D size and have played with it a bit. Of course the real test will be traveling with it, but I've been able to fit a decent amount in it without appearing to affect the bras. If this works as well as I hope it does, I'd be better off with at least two of them. Amazon said the colors I like were going out of stock so I ordered another. They aren't out of stock now but they are more expensive...went from like $25 to $32 (but with free shipping & returns). I believe the A/B cup is cheaper, and it does vary sometimes by color. The worst thing is the sizing... C/D - for what band size? I'm sure you could fit something bigger than the 28Fs I have in it. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised to see it wasn't as bulky as some reviews led me to expect.
Anyway... I have high hopes for this product, but does anyone have experience traveling with it?

I always just stack my bras "flat" on top of each other, "cups in cups" with the band and straps "spread out" (there isn't a less cryptic way to explain this, is there?). Anyway, when they're all neatly stacked I tuck the band bits into the bottom most cups and fill the remaining space with socks or knickers or that sort of things, if needed. Works for my current 30FFs -- I do loads of travelling and never had a bra squashed or otherwise damaged.
I have no experience with that style, but I did recently purchase and use this one (it held up just fine).

It's only suitable for size 32D and the sister sizes and anything around that size. It worked very well and am sure it's not too far off from the one you got in functionality :)
