I HaveBoobs 951 Posted October 8, 2023 Report Share Posted October 8, 2023 I like Berlie high impact sports bra for running it really holds the girls in place and for a bit of extra support i sometimes put a soft cup crop over the top if im doing HITT as for T shirt bras i can't go past the body bliss contour bras (Bras n Things ) they are so comfrey and come in a variety of colours ans they even have lacy options, i have one in every colour ? sabP and kanook 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanook 14 Posted October 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Thanks ladies! I’m looking forward to getting out of this compression bra and into something a bit nicer! Does anyone still wear compression bra to bed? I’m wondering if it’s beneficial long term to keep wearing it - I’ll have to ask my surgeon next week. I’ll definitely check out those bras recommended!

Cupcake85 484 Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 You should have luck at Bras n Things with wirefree bras. Unfortunately I think I will end up a 10F or 10G as I was a 10E with my old implants. Bras n Things just don’t stock anything wirefree in F or G cup as I asked. I’m going to a specialist lingerie store. I’m after sports bras as I’ve just joined the gym (but not doing upper body yet). I have an appointment Friday to be fitted.

I still wear my compression bra to bed..... it’s just so comfy and I like them a little bit supported! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm with @I HaveBoobs on the Berlei sports bras, they are the best at keeping the girls in place with minimal/no movement. I run a lot, so needed a good sports bra or three!! I wore my compression bra at night for a bit longer than recommended, then swapped to crop tops. I still wear a crop bra/top to bed most nights as I like that little bit of support - I'm almost 2 years post-op I HaveBoobs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cupcake85 484 Posted October 13, 2023 Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 Funny I’ve just read the recommendations on sports bras. I went bra shopping and bought 2 x sexy lacy wirefree bras (I can’t believe sexy wirefree exists!). I tried on the Berlei sports bra (unsure which exact one) and it was incredible. I jumped up and down in the fitting room and my boobs didn’t go anywhere. Unfortunately it does have underwire in it and until I see my surgeon in January I’m not allowed to wear wired bras but once I’m cleared I will be buying it. I got 2 x Lorna Jane high neck bras which I wear over a crop. Fairly supportive for the treadmill, etc but looks like I’m not going to be running until mid January. Also if you are in Perth I highly recommend Hidden Lace in Subiaco. Yes a lot of the stuff is expensive $90 bras but the ones I chose were on sale for $39.95 each. They are very good at fitting. One of the bras I tried was not sitting in between my cleavage but on top of it. My fitter straight out said it wasn’t a good fit. They also sell post surgical bras for those who are pre op. That’s where I got mine. sabP 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
