In the meantime, the only thing I have to offer you are this joke about losing weight, and a photo commentary on how well it describes me, lol. A guy I sent them to claimed not to see the humor; perhaps YLF is a better audience for them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras/page/2#post-2131137 Thu, 02 Jul 2020 14:58:07 +0000 Roberta 2131137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I reached a point in quarantine when I just couldn't stand the wires anymore, and ordered a few different styles from Macy's (good selection online).I don't know that I am particularly short-waisted, but the underwire seems to jab my stomach. I am a 38 DDD/G, and I was looking for something with considerable support. Glamorise did the trick. They look good under clothes and don't smush me (no uniboob). They also make sports bras if you are interested. They weren't&nbsp; expensive on sale, and you can find a great range of bigger sizes.Um, if you're looking for a PRETTY bra, these probably aren't it.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras/page/2#post-2130836 Wed, 01 Jul 2020 17:48:37 +0000 notsaf 2130836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting this!

But then the pandemic happened and I figured, when I'm home comfort is more important than looks so I ordered a wireless bra online. It was even marketed as a "lounging bra" so I really had no hope for support, just comfort. Well, it turns out I accidentally found the only wireless bra that has ever looked good on me!</p> <p>I think the wrap design is doing most of the work here. It's ingenuous really. That way, the pressure isn't all on the poor elastic at the bottom. If you can find one with a similar design I'd recommend you try it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2130158 Sun, 28 Jun 2020 01:29:22 +0000 Elle 2130158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been wearing the Uniqlo Beauty Soft bra that neurosmom linked to for the last three years.&nbsp; It provides enough support for me (34B or 36A) and is very comfortable. Neither the back band nor the straps adjust though.&nbsp; So it either works or it doesn't.&nbsp; If there is a Uniqlo near you, try it on.&nbsp; For reference, I wear a size S.</p> <p>For bralettes, I wear a discontinued Nordstrom brand (sigh) and Elita brand crossover bra.&nbsp; Not much support but coverage and comfort.</p> <p>And menopause didn't change my breast size - so there is hope. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2130152 Sat, 27 Jun 2020 23:38:19 +0000 Anonymous 2130152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You’re welcome .

But when I would buy cheaper padded bras (the more expensive ones I've found here tend to be cooler-toned, which stands out against my skintone) I'd find that the foam cups start to disintegrate over time, even if I wash them in a mesh laundry bag. I wish I could go without padding in the summer but I have a bit of a 'headlights' situation (tmi lol, sorry!)</p> <p>PS - For another brand suggestion, I also have Pierre Cardin wireless bras with built-in padding that give great shape, since they have a wider waistband to give support as they 'lift'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2129461 Wed, 24 Jun 2020 21:29:07 +0000 Anonymous 2129461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You lot are depressing me :/ I'm currently in DD and hope they go back to normal! </p> <p>To me a bralette looks like a little crop top, with wider straps. Like a sports bra, but softer. I have ones from Bali (I think, they came from the Bali/Playtex shop) that have sufficient padding for modesty. I wear them for sleep/ lounge.</p> <p>I have one wireless normal bra at present- cheapo Fruit of the Loom. It's comfortable, and not sure there's that much difference between it and the underwire ones tbh. </p> <p>@Zaeobi I wash any bras (sports bras, bikini tops) with removable pads in a lingerie bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2129430 Wed, 24 Jun 2020 18:20:51 +0000 Style Fan 2129430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only wear wired bras for the same reasons as Angie.&nbsp; I find them very comfortable.&nbsp; I do wear a sports bra for Yoga.<br />Yes, mine grew after menopause.&nbsp; I don't seem to lose weight there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2129426 Wed, 24 Jun 2020 17:55:21 +0000 Zaeobi 2129426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I live in wireless bras (even for my sports bras for exercise). I'm a 34C or D (depending on the bra brand &amp; style) &amp; have found Uniqlo Airism bras to fit well, as well as the one @nemosmom linked to. I also have some Wacoal ones I like because the straps are wide (comfortable for my shoulders) and the padded cups are attached to one another in the middle but removable from the bra itself (which makes them<br /> much easier to wash - trying to fish out individual padding circles before laundry &amp; then struggling to fit them back into the cup slots can be a little fiddly and frustrating). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2129423 Wed, 24 Jun 2020 17:45:57 +0000 Angie 2129423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interestingly, I wear a D-cup and do not consider myself large in the bust at all!</p> <p>Second, you might find this helpful:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/2019/06/17/ten-reasons-to-wear-bralettes/">https://youlookfab.com/2019/06.....bralettes/</a></p> <p>Third, I always wear a wired bra.

It has lots of reviews because a bra can vary on being true to size at one end of the scale or the other, just as street clothes can differ. It will tell you if a bra is good for those full or shallow on top, wide or close set, etc. It also provides a ton of measurements. But I will add that the same make and model of a bra but in novel color can deviate from the normal ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2129407 Wed, 24 Jun 2020 17:20:39 +0000 Anonymous 2129407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You could try the Wacoal How Perfect Wire Free T-shirt bra.

No one told me that before either. Even after two pregnancies I haven’t got single strech mark on my tummy, but managed to get some on my boobs because they were changing sizes that dramatically.

Wacoal happens to fit me well now (when I was smaller, Natori worked, but no more). I'm envious of those who have many choices in bras! My size is limiting, especially when it comes to wanting something the least bit cute, and especially in a sports bra that doesn't look like industrial scaffolding! No one ever told me that boobs grow in menopause!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/let%e2%80%99s-talk-wireless-bras#post-2129371 Wed, 24 Jun 2020 13:21:51 +0000 Helena 2129371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only wear wireless bras - mind you I don't have much to support!

I used to have a good luck with Wacoal at my old size, but I completely overlooked them now, since there is so much more choice at my current size. I think even too much choice, that is making me indecisive and overwhelmed. That is why I am asking for recommendations, to have somewhat of a focus.&nbsp; </p>
