Finally, a Comfortable Bra: Wire Free Bra from Bestform

For at least eight years, I have been searching for a comfortable bra. If I would find a bra that looked comfortable, it would not be available in larger sizes. At times, it seemed like there were no bras manufactured in larger sizes with any cup size less than DD. I had really just given up, and I continued to wear the old bras, which were ripped and stretched. Then, fortunately one day, I found a wire free bra from Bestform at KMart for $7.99! It fit, and I went back the next day and got two more.

Here are the specifics about the bra from the Bestform website:

• Style #5006715
• Wire-free
• 100% Cotton knit with satin neckline
• Seamed, set-in cups for shaping and support
• Plush elastic band holds bra comfortably in place

• 100% Cotton

36B, 36C, 38B, 38C, 38D, 40B, 40C, 40D, 42B, 42C, 42D, 44C, 44D

This bra has a soft feel, and the satin part is also soft, unlike most other satin finish bras. While there is not an itchy part to this whole bra, its softness does not preclude the support necessary to have a nice appearance, even in knit clothing.

The straps are cut to be comfortable and roomy so that there is no irritation or cutting into your shoulders or back. The allowable length accommodates the longer torso with ease.. The "hardware" that adjusts the straps is sturdy, but not uncomfortable.

To be this excited about a bra illustrates how desperate I had become. While willing to pay any price to find the right bra after years of searching, I was very surprised to see a $7.99 price tag on a bra made by a subsidiary of Vanity Fair.

These bras are available at KMart, Zellers, and Shopko.
