Only wear them when I go out. Don't wear them at home.

I'm 75 and quit wearing them last year. 48H, 100 percent cotton, front fastening. Only 1 available had 9 hooks and eyes. Who's looking anyway, lol.

Oh, it’s sheer torture. Bras brands are different for every person. Terrible trouble . Especially now that I’m 70, it’s even worse. Anything too tight around my rib cage will cause the costochondritis to flare up. I’ve tried all kinds of brands of bras for myself. I have one that’s OK. But I can’t wear it all day. I don’t wear one until after my shower then I only wear that one for two or three hours, and I put it back on in a couple of hours for dinner, etc. after dinner a soft bra for a few hours. I take that off for a while and go to bed.😆

Excellent question. I’m an odd size for bras. 40J in UK sizing, not sure what that translates to in US sizing. Suffice it to say I *must* wear a very supportive underwire bra unless I’m in bed, or great discomfort ensues.

So! I spent years and waaaaay too much money looking for the perfect bra for me and when I found it I bought a bunch of them and that’s all I buy anymore. They’re like a second skin and stretch in just the right places. Don’t look half bad either. (I hate ugly underwear)

The brand is Panache and the name is “Envy” in case anyone wants to check them out, they are A MIRACLE OF MODERN ENGINEERING.
