What brand bra do you mostly wear?

Kingston54 · July 2009

and...

Are your bras still fitting?

Mine are not. I am tempted to buy a new one but I usually wear VS and I can't bring myself to spend $50 on a bra that might not fit in a few weeks!

I usually wear a Gillian O'Malley's from Target. I bought a new one around 8 weeks and haven't needed another one since then, I didn't want to buy to many and then need a bigger size!

I've always preferred cotton full coverage bras (kinda granny I know) made by "Barely There" or Jockey. You can get them just about anywhere - dept stores like Macy's, Kohls, JCPenney's, etc. They are super comfy. My bras are a little more snug, but are still comfortable, and it might be because they are full coverage ones. They usually sell for around $26 I believe.

VS...and yes they are BARELY still fitting. My HUGE areolas spill out of them though! Sorry TMI. Anyway, after they no longer fit I will just rock sports bras!

Mine werent fitting either & I didnt want to go to VS to purchase more. I just went to Kohls & bought some comfy but also pretty new (bigger) bras!!

I would not buy VS if I were you. I wore 100% VS pre-pg, but their bras are just not enough to handle my pregnancy boobs (even their full-coverage "granny" bras). Since my boobs are on a non-stop growing spree, I didn't want to shell out a bunch of money for new bras either. I went to Motherhood to get fitted properly, then went to JC Penney's clearance rack and bought a bra for $7.99. It's the most comfortable bra I've ever worn and I love it. But my boobs are still getting bigger, and I think I'm going to have to go to plus-size stores soon.

Usually VS, but since my boobs are slowly starting to get bigger, I got a maternity/nursing bra from Target.

I went out and bought a couple of nice bras. It was worth every penny. I was way too uncomfortable in my regular ones. I got sized at Soma to make sure they'd fit properly. I actually bought them with my first pregnancy and sometimes wore them while I was nursing just because they were so comfortable. So if you think you might have more than one baby, it would be worth it. That could be almost a full year (or more depending on how many kids you end up having) of being uncomfortable in a bra that doesn't fit. My bbs however got big at around 4 months and stayed the same big size through nursing. I did get the larger size around so that I could give myself more room to grow into that way.?

gilligan o'malley from target!! usually an avid VS bra buyer, but not worth the money for a month of wear!! the target bras are not only SUPER inexpensive ( 9.99-11.99) but also very comfortable!!

VS and the last time I was there the bras were on sale for $15.99. You should check it out!

I'm a fan of the Maidenform "One Fabulous Fit" line. They are pretty and comfy, and usually on sale at one department store or another. I tried VS years ago and they were way overpriced, uncomfortable, and fell apart. I may have to check out the Target bras though since you all rave about them.

VS Ipex wireless...I just went up a size during my last pregnancy and never went down so I think I will be sticking with them this time around as well.

coquina · July 2009

I'm a VS girl as well but have grown out of them. I found some Calvin Klein for ~$25 and a Maidenform for ~$10 (on sale) at Stein Mart. Just as comfy as VS but 1/2 the price.

My mom and I went to JCP and got me some Bali ones (buy one, get one 1/2 off) ... and they have since gotten too small... but the ones that were hers BEFORE she lost 85 lbs fit me perfectly!

I buy bras from figleaves.com - I always find some good ones on sale.

sheremy · July 2009

I gave in and bought a new bra a few weeks ago. I went to Macy's and bought a wireless bra by maidenform. It is so comfortable, I highly recommend it!

be glad you only wear Vicki's and they only cost $50....

I have to be fitted at a bra shop and the last 2 I bought were around $80 a piece...

I even had to buy a fitted swimsuit.. and I'm so scared I am going to go up another cup size because I was larger when pg with my DD.

Sorry... but if you need a bigger bra you should get it. I doesn't hurt to have the right support.

I *love* Maidenform's One Fabulous Fit bras--they're all I've been wearing for a few years. They've got good coverage, nice styles, and best of all aren't nearly as expensive as VS but are much better quality.

Kohl's almost always has some sort of sale on them--I've rarely paid over $25.
