I'm a 6'0" tall woman with an exaggerated hourglass body (to be exact... 42-29-43) and 34FF breasts. Finding ... clothes that fit me has always been, and will always be, next to impossible. Bras are no exception to the tall-curvy-girl-conundrum. But I love lingerie. Some women have shoes, or jewelry, or makeup. My addiction is lingerie. It has been an even more intimate part of my life than just covering my business. After years of battling anorexia and bulimia (from which I dropped down to 125lbs and body fat % of 8), lingerie has helped me look in the mirror and resolve the angry, self-loathing voice inside my mind. Sometimes the only thing that would make me feel better about looking in the mirror at my recovery weight-gain was to remind myself that having full breasts and big hips was okay. Lingerie helped me become body positive. To this day, a new bra and pair of panties puts a smile on that face staring back at me in the mirror.
I'm completely and absurdly addicted to the way a well-fitting bra makes me feel. I want every woman to know that feeling. Hopefully with sites like this, and knowledge from /r/abrathatfits, that can become more and more of a possibility.
