(Anonymous) 2012-07-19 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)I was thinking more of where the boobs mash together, which (usually) doesn't happen with guys, but the other anon pointed out how it wouldn't really help much when they're all squished in spandex.
I still want one though. Stupid huge boobs.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-19 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)I'm in a similar boat. The bigger the bra size, the more expensive it gets. Especially past the DDs, we have to get into custom-made stuff, and it's a huge hassle... and extraordinarily expensive.
If you've had a bra for a long time, occasionally it's stretched out with you as you've grown. I was wearing Cs for a long time, didn't think anything of it, and then got re-measured last year... had to buy ALL new bras to accommodate my 38DDs. Six bras, two of them being sports bras? Cost me well over $400.
So while it might fit better, the other anon might not be financially able to get an entirely new set of bras. (or there are other reasons, but money is fairly common, I'm only guessing)

(Anonymous) 2012-07-19 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)There's a British company called Ann Summers that I buy things from- they've got bras that go up to at least H (I'm a E so I don't usually pay much attention past that). If you don't live in the UK it can be a bit expensive, having to convert from dollars to pounds, but they do have free worldwide shipping if you spend over 35 pounds.
http://www.annsummers.com/p/genevieve-bra-coral/01brrdas1001088 is the most comfortable goddamn bra I've ever owned and it's pretty, too. :)

(Anonymous) 2012-07-19 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)Trust me, you will feel worlds better and like your boobs much more once you're wearing the right size. I stayed in DD's and DDD's for years because I wanted to be able to shop at "normal" lingerie stores and figured it was close enough. I finally got properly fitted a few years back, and suddenly I looked less fat and frumpy, my boobs didn't get painful right before my period anymore, and the stabbing shoulder pain I always got when I played flute went away.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-20 12:42 am (UTC)(link)I'm on the triple-D level, and people keep telling me they shouldn't be pressed together no matter what, but the only bras with cups large enough to fit and separate mine also have bands that are far too loose (an assistant at a lingerie store claimed it's my back's rather narrow for what I'm lugging). I need custom fittings, and I'd need a new one maybe twice a year when I gain or lose weight directly from the boob area. Ultimately, it's less of a hassle to just let the damn things be smushed a little so long as I get mostly comfortable and secure containment otherwise.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-20 04:16 am (UTC)(link)That lingerie store assistant was full of shit. Cup sizes come bigger than DDD (so much bigger, seriously), and if she claimed she had to go up a band size to get you a big enough cup, what she meant was that her store doesn't carry the cup size you need. I myself wear a GG or H cup depending on the particular bra, and I don't need to have them done custom. There are companies that make bands as small as 30 with cups as large as J, so chances are there are manufacturers already making your size.
My advice would be to seek out a lingerie store that specializes in larger cup sizes or check out Nordstrom, since they recently started carrying up to I think J cups. Request a fitting. Try some stuff on. If you don't like the styles or can't afford the stuff at wherever you go, look online at figleaves.com or bravissimo.com. Both of those places are really great about exchanges, too, if your order arrives and you need a different size.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-20 06:41 am (UTC)(link)Oh, yeah, I know they come bigger, I have no problem finding the right cup or the right band, but those things are never on the same bra for me. Even when the cups are perfect, there are just never enough hooks to get it tight enough for my torso, and getting the band even one size smaller is too tight, like too tight to even hook up at all. I can't tell you how many times I found a bra that would be flawless if only the band would stop doing witchcraft on me. The odd-number sizes that a few brands have might help, so that's my next attempt, and thanks a lot for the suggestions, I'll be stopping by those places. But even if I strike gold, I'll always size out within the year and have to go on the same adventure all over again. So I understand women in the same boat settling for whatever comes close enough to get the basic job done; a little smush is tolerable to save time and frustration.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-20 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)I resort to that sometimes, that or knotting the band together, though it hurts the longevity of the bra stretching the hell out of it to get it on. But yeah, it works in a pinch.
