There has been alot of talk about swimsuits that are designed for real women! How cool is that!!!! I heard about this place called Exelnt Designs Swimwear and I am sooooooooooo excited I want to tell everyone I meet. Being large busted it is so hard to find a bra that fits let alone a swimsuit, don’t you agree girls! This place makes all there swimwear and I guess has been around for 26 years, HELLO, why haven’t I heard about them!!!! Thank god I have because I am going on vacation and I look awsome in my new suit, the girls are upB-) Anyways, I found out that they carry all sizes and there bra sizes go from tiny AA-I cup, how cool, and if I need alterations or a suit designed for me they can do that too. You can find them on the web either by googling Exelnt Designs or {color:#ff6600}Custom Made Swimwear. You got to check this place out, and the staff was so nice and helpful!{color}
Bras have only been around for 100 years, or so. Prior to that time, women went without and did quite well.
There is a misconception that breasts will sag if one does not wear a bra. That is actually not true. Wearing a bra will stop the human body from giving the muscles the strength to hold the breasts in the position that they should be in.
Bras can also contribute to breast tenderness and have been thought to contribute to the possibility of breast cancer as the squeeze the lymph nodes.
Small and large breasted women can go braless. It is safe for any size.
As far as the looks one might get from others….once you walk with confidence, trust me, you will not notice anyone looking at you in a leering way. If they do, it is their problem and nothing that you have caused.
I post on a site for those going braless. Some are braless 24/7, others are braless at home and in social settings only. It’s a great site that can help women (and men) with the questions posed here. I know that I am not allowed to post a link here, but I think I can tell you the link in a PM, if anyone wants the info.
I seem to have a good fit with a 34D, BUT I have too much skin/ fat under my arms. Any suggestions?
I’ve had several bra fittings and none of them worked. Partly because I have large breasts and I’m short… just 5 foot 2. The fitter kept bringing bras that were supposed to fit me according to the measurements done but not a single one fit. Not one. I’ve had them done at JC Penney and Macy’s and the Emporium. Bra manufacturers are now making petite bras but they think petite women have petite breasts only. Not so! We can be short (petite) and have large breasts. If I get a cup size that I’m supposed to fit into the band cuts under my arm because it comes up so high. Mostly I just wear a spandex tank with a shelf in it to stay in place. I get tired of the shopping.

bchartmann: you stated the size you need-was this size recommended by a specialist? i just recently had myself measured by a specialist,bought that size and am much happier now…i hate wearing the new size but it is what it is……………betty
look for vanity fair satin solutions. also when buying a bra look at the back of it. the closer the straps are at the base( you should see that it looks like a v or u) the less likely the will fall of your shoulders.;)
look for playtex thank goodness it fits. this particular line speacilizes in smallr sizes .has padding and no wires.
