From time to time on here we discuss the problem of finding well ftting
bras for the well-endowed among us. I had been having a dreadful time
recently, until, by a roundabout route, I finally found one which fit.
Unfortunately, it apparently only came in chocolate brown, which is no
use to me under light clothing. However, I bought it, and it did fit.
Fast forward. I decided to try (again, sigh) on line.
It was by Goddess, much to my surprise. They must have got some new
designers, because their larger bras always used to be heavy, bullet
shaped and generally unatractive. The first site I tried did, indeed,
say it came only in brown. The next site said it was back-ordered, but
they could get it in beige. This went on through several sites, but I
decided, just for the heck of it, to explore all the sites which Google
had brought up.
Finally, I came to www.BareNecessities.com which not only had it in my
size and color but said they could ship right away. Also, on that site,
I saw another one, also by Goddess, which looked as though it would be
what I wanted. I ordered two of the first and one of the second, and
figured "Oh well, see how long it takes." I ordered it on July 2 and
figured it might not even ship until after the holiday. Not so. They
shipped it that day by UPS, and it arrived here on Tuesday July 7. That
is with a holiday weekend in betwen.
This is the first time I had even heard of this company, but I am very
pleased with their service so far. Just thought I'd share.
NAAY of course.

I have several Goddess products for myself, and suggested
their strapless bras for a couple of the attendants at DD's
wedding. How nice that you found a good supplier online.

Glad you found good underwear that fits and feels good after wearing for for
an hour or so.

I am happy you found a good source for your bras.
Apparently, I missed the posts on bras for the well-endowed, otherwise I
would have mentioned Bare Necessities long before.
Several members of my family get all their bras from them and have for
years. All have been happy with the merchandise and service.

I wore Goddess in the 1980s before other brands were available. I
think it was their strapless longline I wore at my wedding! I agree
it looks like they've revamped their collection. Elomi apparently is
also by Goddess and it's getting good reviews. Glad Bare Necessities
worked out for you! Bummer that Figleaves and Zodee have tons of
stuff on their non-US websites that they won't ship to us Yanks. I
just went through another round of hunting for the perfect bra. I'm
still waiting for the latest set through the mail of ones that I hope
will fit.
Best,
Pora
