Jiggle

So, this is something that I've been trying to understand better for a while.

For those who havent heard me say this a dozen or two times, I spent the last 2 decades and then some wearing Decent Exposures unbras, but I wore the lined lycra, a cup size or two down from the recommendations. I liked them like that because they fit like compression bras. I did not quad out of them, they gave (for me) better lift than in a bigger cup size, and they held my chest pretty tightly against my body. Of course, they also didnt give nearly as much lift as a 'real' bra, and they squish my boobs to the sides, in their unstructured cups.

I am a very deep, projected 32J (ish), who is also very soft and saggy - I've nursed 3 kids and I'm no spring chicken. I love the more projected and lifted shape I get in the bras I'm currently wearing (mostly Floris, Marcie and EM BM Perla). however, I do jiggle a LOT more in them than I am used to. I cant go down a size, because I quad out (in fact, Marcie and BM are already on the small size - they are both HH, not J, and Marcie has the in-cup quad while BM i fall out and quad on the bigger side, needing about 2-3 adjustments during the span of the day)

Do people with firmer (younger) breasts not jiggle as much? Do people just accept that walking with big breasts means jiggling? I feel like I've seen other people with breasts my size that dont jiggle as much, but maybe being FOT means I have to wear bras that dont hug my boobs as firmly?

Any thoughts or ideas?

  • In a nutshell, yes. If you are large-chested and do not like the full coverage, full cup, "matronly look" (say some people...) then you will have enough uncovered breast tissue up above that you will jiggle. This was true for me when I was a wee slip of a 19-year-old 32DD-E and it is true for us now!

  • Yup, the only way I know not to jiggle is to have the full cup cover up. Unfortunately, I don't know of a single solitary true full cup with appropriately scaled wires. There are lots of close ones though. I'd love a full cup because that way I can really be comfortable and supported while knowing I'm not going to slowly slip out during the day.
