Finding Good Bra

[Guest Yana]

I have real problem to find good bra. I got only few, acceptable, but... The problem is my size:

Shoulders: 47

Around armpit: 40

Bust: 42

Under breasts: 38

Bra size calculator (http://www.85b.org/bra_calc.php) gives me 42B size, but actually, 42A fits me better. Anyway, it is terribly difficult to find so big bra with so small cups. Anybody have an idea where can I find some?

If you have trouble finding a bra with the correct rib cage size, you could maybe try cutting under the arm holes and sewing in some elastic? Or try to find a specialty bra store--they might have more variety re: size.

Good luck!

Hi Yana,

Neviah has a good point - My wife has a very large chest and had purchased extensions for her bras - they would make a 40 into a 42 or more. She doesn't need them any more, so I can't say where she found them.

Love, Kat

Any lingerie store or store that has a lingerie department will sell bra extenders. You can find them easily at Walmart or Target, for sure, in their lingerie/intimates department. They're usually on a peg, sold right along side push up pads, adhesive bras.

They look like this, but can come in a few different colors (nude, black, white) and usually 2 or 3 hooks.
