Can anyone give me some brand and model recommendations for some bras for my 14-year-old daughter? She's a 26E so I'm going to try to sister size up and find some 28DD bras for her to try on. I'm hoping to order a bunch off of Amazon and use the free shipping/free returns. She is very projected with somewhat short roots and normal root width (her underwire should stop just at the front of the armpit). I'm wide, shallow, and somewhat tall rooted so I have no idea what brands or models to try for her. I also need something that is appropriate for her age (no black lace plunges). Any and all suggestions would be welcome!

Cleo would be a great brand to start with! Their bras are colorful, fun, and youthful. They are loosely known as "Panache's younger sister" since their target demographic is younger women. Most of the unpadded styles offer a decent amount of projection, narrow-ish wires, and are good for short roots. Looks for styles labeled as "balconnet" instead of "plunge" for more coverage. There are lots of Cleo bras on Amazon, too (tip: add them to your cart and watch the prices over a couple of days -- they may actually drop in price!) Cleo Marcie Balconnet Bra (6831) and Cleo Lily Balconnet Bra (7351) are my favorites. :)
I measure at 26E. Right now my best fitting bra is the 28D - Freya ยป Jolie Plunge Balcony (4101), which I feel could work for a 14 year old because of the fun/girly (not sexy) colors it comes in. Even though it is not padded, I get no nipple show-through.
