trying to understand why I want any sort of padding at all

classic, conservative, mainstream, not rich, practical

Pros

fairly wide size ranges, very supportive, color choices available

Cons

too stiff, after repeated washes, gets bumpy lookin

MAY

2008

I already buy Cachique bras, and the saleslady recommended that I try one of these. Quite frankly, at 36 DDD, I have no clue on the planet why I would want even the smallest amount of padding to add to the effect. The construction of the bra felt rigid-and I was very conscious of it as I moved about during my daily activities. To me a good bra is supportive but not something that you are aware of. Over time, I found the "padding" gets lumpy looking as the bra is washed, and that lumpy appearance shows up under sheerer types of blouses and tops. Kind of an orange peel effect rather than smooth. It is also alot more synthetic next to my skin, and I am not a big fan of that. It comes in a host of colors and glossy fabrics, but I tend to like my bras to be the supporting cast rather than the show itself, so it isn't my favorite. It is well made and supportive, but not my cup of tea, and it is pretty expensive per bra unless you hit one of the special offers or have the Lane Bryant real woman dollars to use.

It's no wonder an estimated 80% of women are wearing the wrong size bra. It is such a challenge to find a good fit in a style that looks (and feels) good. Nice review. :)
