Best bra for small breast (really small!)

[Lenny]

I am getting used to the idea that this is it. There will be no sudden, miraculous change in my breasts. I need to get on with getting some bras that fit.

I used to be a B cup, and could always happily wear an underwire bra as they weren't uncomfortable for me. There were plenty of 10/12Bs in the shops. Now, 10A's and AA's - they are nearly impossible to find and the only two 10 A's i did just find at my local store didn't fit properly. My measurement was either 10A or 12 AA. Just writing it down is a little sad

I have the boys with me all the time and i just can't see how i can get to a proper bra shop and get fitted without there being a drama.

Where do i go? What brands are great for those of us for whom less is more! Or am i the only one

Last time I seen an AA size was in Kmart.

You're not the only one hun, I have trouble finding AA's. I bought the most comfortable bra from an Undercover Wear party, it is great.

Can you go braless? I have biggish boobs (DD), but I reckon I'd be braless if I could!! Or does it not work that way....??

[Liviam]

I'm exactly the same size as you hun. To get 12AA I have to go into a proper bra shop and they order them in or for 10-12A you can get them at Kmart/Big W/Target.

It's horrible isn't it??

I too am an AA cup. Unlike you, I am still coming to terms with it. I don't wear a bra for the support, it's to hold the padding and most AA bras are pre-teen, so not padded! I also find the padded/booster bras from the major stores are hard and don't fit to my (lack of) shape. I have a couple of great Intimo gel bras that fit well, even though they're B cups. I also recently bought a couple of Ambra body soft bras with oodles of padding! They're underwire, but still very comfy. Mine were from Trade Secret, but I do know Myer sells Ambra's.
Oh, and I also bought some 'chicken fillets' for less than $3 off eBay that are good with my swimmers and 'back up bras'! HTH

You could do your own fitting at home. You just need a measuring tape


It might be worth having a look online to buy some bras - you can make sure the measurements are right and usually you can return them if your not happy for any reason.

Good luck - I hate bra shopping too!!

If I go braless I'm as flat as a tack, certainly don't need it for the support but at least with a bra it looks like I've got boobs .

I've seen 10-12AA in Target hun.

Thanks everyone. I feel lots better!!!
I am definitely going to try a couple of these suggestions (I can't believe they might have to order them in for me )

nickle - braless sounds great, but i would look like someone stuck two pin tacks to my chest! I'm with Dianne, it's a boost for the morale as well as the cupsize.
Jleigh - i got some chicken fillets but they are too huge (more like a turkey!)! I need to get smaller ones maybe - these ones were OTT.

La Senza do some fantastic padded bras - I live in them. I'm usually a 32AA-32A, but AAs are getting rarer and rarer.

ETA - just done some on-line fitting things. I'm a 36AA, a 32B, 34B, 36B or a 34A, depending on the site. I even go up to 34C on one website. I'm not relying on that. I'm a 32A or just under. That's the bra that fits around my back, over my shoulders AND has no overspill (I wish!). Didn't Onyx post a while ago about going to a bra shop, getting groped and given a fantastic fitted bra? Seems that's better than using tape measures.

[Lulliloo]

maybe try bnt... they have specialised fitters and even some of their 10A's and on the smaller side or have extra padding too.
i used to manage one of the stores(dont anymore)... so i know they are good.

[Tinks]

I get my DD's bras from Myer. Ambra, Mitch Dowd, Miss Pink all have wire free AA cup sized bras.

[JLeigh29]

Yep Tinks, that's us - buying bras with the tweens, lol!

Wire free usually = no padding in my experience, so probably no good. Do let us know how you go - I am always on the lookout for good bras.

[Ca Plane Pour Moi]

LOL, when pg and I needed new bras due to growth, I was told that pregnancy bras didn't come "that small" and I'd have to wear a "teen trainer" bra. Cheers shop assistant - so pleased there's more than one lingerie shop in town now! Don't consider the feelings of others ever, will you? (I had to internet order my feeding bras too.)

[Tinks]

Sorry.

I wouldn't usually know this info because I have the opposite problem but I have had SO many problems trying to find small cup size bras for DD with no wire that when I find them I buy up big.

BTW...2 weeks ago I got her some bras from Myer off the clearance rack and they came down to $6 each So I bought up big lol. Seriously, go and check out Myer.

I wore singlet/shelf bra feeding tops. For the last 4 years. They were exciting times in fashion for me.

I can't believe how different some websites are - I'm a triple A on one!!! Boohoo. And BNT don't even go to AA on their website. I googled a few more sites and there were plenty of 'training' bras.
