Comfortable, Uplifting, and Pretty

Is that too much to ask of bra designers?

Where does one find blissful bras?

Is it in any of the myriad of supposedly comfortable bras on the market? No. Not even in my beloved Marks and Spencer (a UK high street food and clothing retailer). Even less so in the luxury sexy provocative underwear shops. More akin to inhospitable undergarments.

One has to wonder whether some of the more mature women with fleshy padding, rather than models, are the only ones who have to wear their bras all day in mean, scratchy lace, digging in seams, and underwires. Only when they get home can they can strip the darn contraptions off and breathe a deep sigh of relief and ease their boobs into something soothing and comfy.

Sexy and Strapless Numbers

As a young woman, I splurged on all types: balcony, balconette, and plunge bras to spill out of, and tiny thongs to match. I invested in plunge, push up, and cleavage boosting padded plunge — I was a few cup sizes smaller in my twenties and thirties! Of course, all the bras had to have matching knickers.
