It's so hard for me to find a good bra. I'm a 34 D and nobody carries that size. Anyway, I need input on what a really great underwire bra is.

I've personally sold intimates for a job and I have to say Wacoal is one of the best, great support.

Go to "Soma by Chico"......there's one in Dallas. They will measure and make the best bras out there.

I got a personal fitting at Dillards and bought a Wacoal bra which was great.

I am quite picky though and I do not like any lines or design on my cup, I like smooth, non lined cups. I found the Body by Victoria at Vicoria's Secret to be a great underwire bra and style I like.

I am a petite 116# size 2 with natural (no plastic) 34DD's so it is tough for me to find what I like.

I have tried Loretta's and they have some nice bras.

Girl--you got to get fitted! I prefer Nordstrom's or Maddox for a good fitting. I've been to Dillard's, but the experience wasn't quite as good. I'm sure it depends on who is working that day.

I was a 34 D when I was pregnant. I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant now. I really liked the Le Mystique bras. Of course, you will need to figure out what you like/don't like.

One thing I recommend is to go to one of these stores. Get fitted, try them on and then buy ONE bra. Wear it a couple of weeks to see that you really like it and then go online to ebay and find it for less expensive.

The last bra I bought (pregnant) was a Le Mystique. It cost about $70 (w/tax, etc). I went online to ebay and found the exact same bra (brand new) for about $54.

Good Luck. A good bra is worth a million dollars to me.

Try Nordstrom. I am a 34D and have never had a problem finding my size. Try Chantelle..they are my favorite.

I got some at Ross that I LOVE!!!! They are made by Bali, I believe, and have a bra with a camisole. They don't ride up like a lot of bras, and they are SO comfortable! No under-wire, but they still make you look great (no sagging; perky...lol). They also have adjustable back hooks like a regular bra and padded cups. Plus, I've seen them in up to DD size, at least. A super bonus...they are under $7! No lie!

I used to be a 34 D until I had Elizabeth. They sell that size at Victoria's Secret. As for which bra, you really have to try them on. Everyone is a bit different.

I think I've seen that size at Target - just be careful you know which are 'minimizers' and which aren't, they fit very differently. Try the Gillian O'Malley Tshirt bra.
