What is your favorite Bra?

[chickwhorips]

at least i know i'm not alone with falling out of my bras.

you would think with all the "technology" now that they would make a comfortable bra that prevents all our problems that we have and still looks cute.

Maybe we should invent one and get te to make it for us?

good idea.... but where do we start?

Well it sounds like we all want something that keeps us in, gives us shape(no uniboob) has compfy straps and cloth. No underwire, support. Am I leaving anything out?

i know there are a few people around here that sew.... maybe we can get them in on this.

now is the time i would've paid more attention to sewing when i was a kid. my stepmom was great at sewing. i just tried to make cool designs on the material with my sewing machine, never made anything.

I'm currently 34D+
(I even had reduction surgery from DDD to C, and oddly, bra manufacturers changed the labelling so what was a C cup is now a D cup... go figure! I still have the old C cup for proof!).

For cycling I actually like the Pearl Izumi schimmels or their other sports "bras".

But for more active endeavors, like running or volleyball, my current favorite is by Brooks Pro-Support--and comes in band and cup sizes for a great fit.

For day wear--well, what's my favorite is not longer available the next time I go shopping (or the fabric changed or cut changed slightly to "improve" it), and varies by what I'm planning to wear over it. Have better luck w/ the european brands--they just seem to have better styles that fit well, too. E.g. Chantelle, Triumph, Freya... www.figleaves.com is a good place to check.

Yeah, Veloputt
I have a Triumph Tri-Action.
It is so nice and seamless with stretchy straps and velcro for easy adjustment. Best of all it is a front-y
Never figured out how to do a bra up at the back. Also have had long periods of limited arm movement ( mastectomy and a horrendous tractor accident) and fronties helped me stay independent.
I also think all the "reverse engineering" of seams, 3 sets of hooks and eyes, and overlapping fabric just ruins the asthetics of that beautiful expanse of a woman's back.
