I love the way just about any bra feels though!

I absolutely hate underwire bras if I am not wearing forms. the few ones I do have dig into skin, but they are also the sexiest ones I have, so I still have them and wear them. I prefer soft cup bras.3 users thanked author for this post.

LadyRegistered On: January 5, 2023Topics: 3Replies: 61Has thanked: 13 timesBeen thanked: 322 timesI like most of the ladies here have a variety of bras to wear. I have a red lacy push up bra from Adore Me that is one of my favorites with a matching red thong. The wife and I recently went to Ross and had a great day of shopping, she picked me out about 4 different bras and I did the same for her. It was such a fun time. I wear sports bra and braletts when just hanging around the house but I also have quite a few non padded bras that I wear. I am addicted to having matching bra and panty sets. I have a total of six sets.

Give me Winglove for strapless bras. I want to wear regular bras when the straps will not show and I want to wear strapless when the straps do want to show hun. I want to wear sleep bras from Summer Salt when outside of both cosplay mode and femme mode girlfriend.

LadyRegistered On: July 12, 2022Topics: 9Replies: 50Has thanked: 179 timesBeen thanked: 445 timesPersonally, I have 4 bras from Torrid. I think everyone knows how much I love Torrid. I think I love Torrid so much because everyone at my store treats me as Michelle. Since the first day I walked in and had a proper bra fitting. All of my bras are a 40C.
I have the following bras:
- XO PLUNGE SMOOTH 360° BACK SMOOTHING™ BRA (Nude)
- FULL-COVERAGE BALCONETTE LIGHTLY LINED SMOOTH 360° BACK SMOOTHING™ BRA (Burgundy)
- FULL-COVERAGE BALCONETTE LIGHTLY LINED SMOOTH 360° BACK SMOOTHING™ BRA (Purple)
I have the following Sports Bras:
- Torrid – LOW-IMPACT WIRELESS LATTICE BACK ACTIVE SPORTS BRA
Color: Black
I plan to wear this bra (or my Genie bra) at my work. - Genie Women’s Bra (TM) Comfort Sports Bra
Size 2X
I think I bought it at Walmart or Amazon.
This was my first bra I bought.
I have size C silicone breast forms and all of my bras hold the breast forms well. I don’t feel the need with these bras to get a pocket bra.
For everyday use, I usually like to wear the Genie bra. It is very comfortable. I can wear this bra all day.
When I want to dress up a little or if I plan on going out as Michelle, I will wear one of my Torrid bras. They are so pretty and I love how they look!
With all of this said, if get up the nerve, go get yourself a proper bra fitting like I did at Torrid! Firstly, it’s a very exciting experience getting fitted and then trying on different bras. Secondly, having a proper fitting bra makes wearing them very comfortable to wear, even all day.
Hugs and Kisses,

LadyRegistered On: July 12, 2022Topics: 9Replies: 50Has thanked: 179 timesBeen thanked: 445 timesI called the store ahead of time and asked to talk to one of the managers. I told her that I was a MTF CD and I was interested in trying some clothes and wanted a proper bra fitting. She said that she was glad to help and I could come into the store at anytime. She said that anyone of the girls could help but if I felt more comfortable with her, she understood. She was working all day so I could come in at anytime. Like I said, I really love all of the girls at my Torrid.
At that time, I didn’t have any breast forms, so I brought socks. If you have some type of forms, you will sure get the correct size.
It was exciting when she fitted me and then I tried on different bras. Then, we looked around the store for clothes to try on.
So, I suggest you give them a call. Be open and honest and you should be treated well. It’s your choice if you want to go to the store when it’s busy or not.
Personally, it didn’t matter if the store was busy or not. Actually, I tried on a whole bunch of clothes, I was getting feedback and compliments from both the staff and other customers! Everyone, including other women treated me as Michelle and it truly was an amazing experience!
If you do go, I would love to hear how it went with you. I hope it’s as good, or even better, as mine.

But I think bras and panties are the ultimate items that a woman should have. I have all different varieties of colours, styles, wired and wire free, bralettes. I have some that are plain and I have some that are very fancy. I absolutely adore the material, the look and I consider them to be a work of art. The only thing I don’t have is a pocket bra, which I intend to purchase. I try to stop myself from buying more but I don’t think I will be able to. I doubt very much if I can wear every one of them, but it is Joy just looking at them sometimes. It’s somewhat the same idea with my panties.

Pocket bras when I want that extra “jiggle and nips showing” with my larger forms! Padded bras and no forms for more of a demure look. There’s a special group that is strictly for the bedroom! Finally several matching bras (with forms) and panties for when I want to feel especially pretty. I love all of them… Stephanie

All of them are convertable bras which can be worn without straps because I have a lot of tops and dresses that have shear tops to them and I don’t want any bra straps showing through a shear top.

The brand I have most of is from La Vie En Rose, which sells products very similar to Victoria’s Secret. A couple of Warner’s, which are thin as well, so my nipples poke through, and a few other brands. Most are underwire, which so far haven’t poked me.

That was a big step. I purchased several Dream Angel bras that add 2 cup sizes and represent myself as a D or close to it and have been wearing everyday. Of course there are looks but I have to say many more compliments from both men and women. Express ourselves!!!

2/. For when I can do so, (mostly at night and during winter) and dont want my chest to attract attention, I wear unpadded 40AA bras. by Amoena. I cut the mastectomy pockets out of them to give me more “feeling”… (if you get my drift!!!)
Favorite brands are Fayreform, (especially their “Coral” range). Simone Perele and Wacoal (both of the latter on clearance)..

NOTHING is better than wearing a bra!
I like front closure. I wear a 40B from Bali with underwire. I used to wear size B forms, but I’ve dropped down to size A. The A size works just fine with a B cup bra.
When I’m wearing my bra with the forms in I really am in Crossdresser Heaven.

Topics: 0Replies: 0Has thanked: 0 timesBeen thanked: 0 timesMy favorite was always wireless and Vanity Fair bralettes which came in all different sizes (s-m-l-xl) and colors/prints. They were not much for support but so comfortable any time. I had just about every one available, and cheap on ebay … until I purged to Goodwill. There’s that awful word again … and I hope that I never purge again. My next favorite is Warner. They seem to make the smoothest and, for me, the best fitting although pricey. I’m very proud to say today in the mail from Amazon I got a Warner bra and it has to be one of the best! It’s Warner’s back to smooth Lift and is it ever smooth with a very pretty design. It’s a 40B and has a little lift built in at the bottom of the cups. With my enhancers in “I’m definitely a perky woman”! Do I ever love Warners. Found it on Amazon. I don’t usually buy bras when they’re popular due to cost but sometimes we just have to splurge.
I think I’ll sleep in it tonight??

Firstly I have both Bendon Yevette and Triumph Sheer exclusive bras in size 18b which I wear under my male clothing. Both of these styles are underwired with un-padded cups. I have found it possible to wear these under quite light shirts without detection.My second type are 18D underwired bras which I use with breast forms when I dress as female
Again I have found Triumph and Bendon underwired styles to work well. Again my preference is for unlined cups and I have a preference for some lace on the upper cups1 user thanked author for this post.

Padded push-ups with some lace or satin are my favorite, especially brands like VS, SoMa, Vera Wang, and Maidenform that I found at thrift stores.
Recently I discovered the comfort of sports bras, padded of course.

And hold breast forms really well. I also like Soma and Victoria Secret ones, but need to fit properly. Harder to do when one only shops online.

I find it necessary to ensure that the cups are separated by a small bow or ribbon, rather than are attached to each other. I think it makes my very small breasts fit so much better.

They come in both front hook and back hook. I prefer the back hook. They also have another style Embraceable which is nice but not as good as the Vanishing Back. The can be worn all day without being uncomfortable. They are a little on the pricy side at just over $50 but well worth it. Other bras I have worn in the such as Victoria’s Secret are pretty but uncomfortable. Sometimes you can get lucky and find Soma on ebay for less than retail or even from Soma on sale.
Huggs,
Suzanne

Topics: 0Replies: 0Has thanked: 0 timesBeen thanked: 0 timesMy favorites in order are: the Bali 6543 “Lace Desire No-foam Underwire” because it’s so pretty, the Bali 3439 “One Smooth U Ultra-Light Illusion Neckline” because it’s so comfortable (I have several of these) and I just recently discovered the Fruit of the Loom 9292 “Extreme Comfort” underwire. I found that the FoL Extreme Comfort is better for the summer when I do things that make me sweat. They seem to be a little cooler than the Bali’s and I don’t worry about washing them in the machine instead of hand washing them. Also, I can buy them at Walmart.
I just ordered a new Bali 3439 in white from balibras.net (which is One Hanes Place), and right now they’re running a special sale. When you buy any Bali bra (they’re on sale, too) you get a free pair of panties. I chose the Bali 303J “Comfort Revolution Hi-Cut”, also in white. I can’t wait for them to show up in my mailbox!

They have a back and front closure. They are so comfortable. I like the full coverage. The two I have bought ao far have under wires but they are still very comfortable. My size in the back closure has 4 rows of hooks so the band is wide and feels really good.

I used to measure for my bra band size incorrectly below the bust line, but the correct measurement is around your chest just under the armpits.
I like soft cup bras of just about any material, regular bras and I especially like long-line bras for their support.
I’ve had underwires wear through and poke through my expensive breast forms and I didn’t like that.

Topics: 0Replies: 0Has thanked: 0 timesBeen thanked: 0 timesOk, this is going to sound weird, but when I dress I use 3 bras. Yes, 3. I take a padded bra and fold it together so the cups match and double up. I put one folded bra in one cup of my 44DD bra and do the same for the other cup. I looked around and the silicone inserts cost hundreds and i am a working girl with bills. Recycling the old bras fill up my cups and give me the curvy shape I like on a small budget.
Best Wishes,
May your cups always be full,Joanna R.

Mostly 36A or 38A without breast forms and 38B or 38C with my forms. The variety in styles is really helpful. I can wear an unpadded, unwired 36A bra under a baggy sweatshirt in public and no one knows, not even my wife. I swear she hugs me sometimes to check out if I’m wearing a bra or not. She knows I crossdress and doesn’t mind as long as I don’t go over-the-top. And I’ll wear a padded bra under a t-shirt with a flirty skirt and heels; creates a really nice look.

Love VS and have a couple including bombshell but they’re so expensive @ $40-60 a pop (yes I know it’s Quality) but until I get the courage to go in dressed and shop in person and let them fit me properly I need to hold off on the pricey ones.

BreastForm Store pocketed sheer, 42 C to D, when I’m wearing my forms.Like Millicent, I also have problems finding suitable bras, for use when I’m not wearing my forms.
Here in Australia, band size 42 (Australian size 20) and above is almost absolutely exclusively underwire only and D cup or larger. It is exceedingly rare to find any C cup, much less B cup, in my size, and then rarer still to find it in wire free.
This D cup or larger bustline for plus sizes thinking, also extends to women’s fashion. So, simply to get dresses and tops to fit properly, I have no choice, except to wear forms.1 user thanked author for this post.

Mostly underwired – to support my forms. I have two Amoena ones – one regular size and it has pockets in the cups to hold my forms and one with AA cups – same model, just smaller cups – that I wear without forms. Those are both cotton without underwire, but since they are made for holding forms they work just fine. I mix up brands – Playtex, Bali, Amoena, some others. Mostly the challenge is finding a bra with a 44 or 46 band size and B or C cups. With that big a band the manufacturers seem to want you to have D or bigger. Some are padded, some not.
