I LOVE underwire, now that I know I’m a 40G and not a 44D. I really like http://www.biggerbras.com they get into bigger sizes & have a lot of pretty bras for all sizes.
I’m in love with my over-the-top $$ EMPRENTE bra. I’ve had it 6 mos and it still looks and acts new, and it gets the girls up and off my chest and makes them look absolutely beautiful. For a great fitting wireless, check out GODDESS bras, beautifully supportive and COMFY!

P.S. http://www.title9.com has a great selection of “sport” non-underwire but not quite so uni-boob looking selection.

I hate underwire bras! It was very difficult to find bras in my size without them, so I used to remove the wires myself. I tried the Playtex 18 Hour, but did’t like the style (too grandma-ish). I eventually just said to heck with perkiness, and have been wearing sports bras ever since.

I loved the under-wire bras when I was smaller. After the birth of my first child, I did not lose my large breasts. I have worn th Playtex 18 hour bra for years but it seems like the last few years they are not true to size. They have now started making this bra in larger than DDD cup sizes so I will try it again. I have found Goddess and Glamorise are very supportive in the larger cup sizes and are very comfortable.

I had been miserably wearing, a 38D or DD my whole bra wearing career. My straps pulled (1 inch divots in my shoulders) my wire poked, I bulged, I uni-boobed. Then, I was fitted I actually wear a 34F. Granted they are hard to find in regular stores (yay MacyÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s) and the ones at reasonable prices $24ish are a bit granny looking, but I no longer detest underwires. Also for the insanely cute (but not inexpensive) larger letter sizes http://www.bravissimo.com is the best ever!

After nursing twins (couple with weight issues and age) I need lots of support and have never felt that a bra without wires offers the same uplift and support. If someone has found a bra without wires does offer great support and lift, please let me know.
