36 DD right now, and I don't have the perfectbra, but I have a few standards:
1) Underwire - I like the lift and separation, plus non-underwires are way too sweaty down south
2) Top hook closure that I can do one-handed
3) A seamless cup for a natural rounded shape - Pointy boobs piss me off (On myself - I don't care about other people's pointy boobs
)
I also don't have great selection where I live now. But my 2 faves have been:
Motherhood's Cotton seamless-cup bra. THey have lots that are a shiny material, and they suck. The cups aren't strong enough. But there's one that is cottony and it has supportive cups. However, my underwire poked through and now i can't find this one at my store.
At wal-mart, they sell like 2 bras. But one of them, I think the brand is "best form" - it comes in a bag, and has lacy seamless cups - is my new favorite. The cups are firm and supportive, although the straps don't stay adjusted from day-to-day. BUt for the price, I can put up with that.
THey don't have it online - I was going to post the link. THey only have the playtex expected moments ones online, which I use to sleep in and under my sports bra
I hate wal-mart and know it sucks, but my options here are target (WHich doesn't carry my size in their underwire bra), motherhood, and wal-mart.
I hope other ladies have some good recs - but I don't do the stretchy, wireless, etc. bra. I needed comfort the first few weeks post partum, but now I need a hard-core bra that I'm not embarassed to wear!
