Belvia Bras

[Eve]

Has anyone ever tried these, especially anyone "generously chested".

I've seen the advertised and they look very comfortable but do they really give you the appropriate support and lift?

I could really use a more comfortable bra, especially one that doesn't put pressure on my shoulders which are painful.

Can't wear normal crop tops as they have no support and I'm too big chest wise to be bouncing about.

They are OK for wearing around the house but not out in public there is just not enough support - have you considered a sports bra?

[marje]

I agree with FGT, they are far too stretchy so heavy boobs just pull the bra down. Shame really.

I had a look at some in M&S a little while back but opted for ones with out an underwire instead as the ones I had were too uncomfortable.

I've got one with good lift but it puts a lot of pressure on my shoulders which is painful and another one which is more comfortable there but doesn't have the lift (was an underwired bra but I took the underwire out).

[Eve]

It is a shame as they do look really comfortable.

Maybe time to look at the sports bras then! I've got one somewhere, got it after an "experience" trying boxercise years ago in a normal bra, nearly knocked myself out.

Have you considered a post surgery bra? I know you haven't had surgery but they are supposedly far more comfortable than traditional underwired but have decent support unlike sports or Belvia bras.

I too am big in the boobs and looked in at this question because I had been meaning to ask it ! I liked the look of the Belvia ones , now I am pleased I did not buy one. One day a manufactor will make one for big girls.

[Eve]

I haven't Daffy but will go have a look at some, hadn't thought of that!

After I had my gallbladder out I couldn't wear a bra for about a week and it was lovely not feeling all trussed up! I wasn't out much save getting one of the wound sites treated as it was infected and covered up with baggy stuff and a coat to hide it but wouldn't be able to do normally and not good for your back I guess.

One day I hope Flump!

Have a look at the Mariosta site. I haven't tried them myself but they seem to cater for the larger ladies.

[Eve]

Thanks Tilly, I'll have a look. I've never been brave enough to order anything like that online though, need to get myself round for some fittings.

Have you tried Bravissimo? They have high street stores so you could try the bras. They go up to L cup and should be able to give you professional/expert advice. http://www.bravissimo.com/products/lingerie/#/1

I was temped to suggest that. My woman shops there when she is in the vicinity of their shop.

The best comfort bra I have found is from Evans it is their non underwired 'firm' range - 2 for £24 they are so comfortable I now wear them all the time.

They look perky but I am comfortable - bliss

"My woman"... my woman??????
That is derogatory, my lady, my wife please.

[Mammar]

I tried one and the damn thing was awful. Rolled up under the bust. I wore it 5 minutes.
Thanks for the Evans tip. Will be up there next week

[pips1]

LOL ^^^^^

[tonyav]

LOL, your in trouble here OG.

[pips1]

that was meant for ferlew

[friedgreentomato]

mamar make sure it says firm on it as thats where the lift comes from

[Caribeing]

I have tried them as well all right if you are small busted not suitable for big breasted women, ok for lounging around in but not much support. The adverts for them make out that anyone can wear them but not true, no support in that!

We aren't married, and is not part of the nobility.
She is my woman, I am her man. At least I hope so.
