Daisy Bras
I’m not sure if I’m able to talk about this on the forum.
Has anyone bought this bra? What are you likes or dislikes of it? |
Hmm I don't know anything about that bra brand. I'm not one to bra shop. I get use to one style and despise trying ot find another when its not made anymore. I stocked up when my last favorite brand was going away. They were 75% off and my favorite. I went to four different malls to buy them. Still have new ones I haven't worn yet. I can probably be buried wearing a new bra. LOL

I'd like to find one that is comfortable with straps that don't slip. Will keep an eye on this thread!

I would pay anything for a well fitting bra!!
I like front closure but not those hooks and eyes. QuilterJ- I'm not familiar with this brand but it's on Amazon so you can read reviews if you want. |
I checked online for this Daisy Bra and it took me to Amazon. There I found these bras anywhere between $6.99 to over $20 so which is better? It sounds great as I hate bras with the metal piece underneath that will eventually poke out from numerous washings. I like that they snap in front also plus wider straps. Will have to keep my eye on what others think once they try them as my bras are starting to look ragged so I'll be in the market for new ones. Also like that the site gives you how to measure youself correctly. Nice!

I have always taught that after using for breastfeeding my boobs had no use at all. Just something to have to worry about with mammograms every year, wearing uncomfortable bras and putting up with that hassle. I told my different Drs. years ago that the first iffy mammogram I wanted them removed.

I'm leery of buying anything I've found on FB. So many sketchy overseas companies, so many scams.

😩 Oh well. I think I've found one that will work. No under wires, no padding, and thicker shoulder straps. We'll see when I decide to wear it. |
I think most women struggle with finding a comfortable, good fitting bra. Our younger daughter is tiny, an XS or "0" clothing, and she has problems just as I do at the other end of the scale.
No how, no way am I wearing underwires. When I find something that sort of works, if it has underwires, I make a snip in the casing and rip it out. As I've aged, my skin has become very sensitive to anything that is not cotton or linen. I can't go without a bra as the skin under my breast chafes. The struggle is real I've been eyeing Miss Mary of Sweden bras online. Not available anywhere locally. They are quite pricey, but if they are comfortable, it would be worth it. |
I am not associated with this company in any way. I have worn bras from "Essential Bodywear" for a long time. They do private fittings and that made a difference for me. They are shockingly expensive but they last for years and years. My first two bras lasted beyond eight years. That brings the price down to about $7.50 per year. I just ordered replacements about 18 months ago and got them quickly and they were exactly like the originals. Loved that. I learned long ago that when you pay for quality, the item lasts longer.
I see the FB bras but as a matter of practice I don't believe Facebook adds |
For everyday around the house I wear a tee shirt bra. I'm not busty so it works and keeps my better bras newer.

Maybe we women should go back to making our own bras!! seriously.

There use to be a tv reality show of two women who made custom bras. Anyone remember that?

I am in the "hate underwires" camp. I remember one time I was doing laundry at my mother-in-law's house, and I was pulling my bras out of the washer and hanging them to dry. She asked me why, she said she just tosses hers in the dryer. I said air-drying them helps them last longer, because the heat from the dryer degrades the elastic. She had no idea.
I also replace all my bras about once a year, because the elastic and stretchy fabrics do degrade and that's when the girls start sagging. I like the basic cotton Cacique bras from Lane Bryant, they haven't changed the fit, style, quality, materials, etc over the last 20 years. I don't even need to try them on anymore, I just buy and go. |
One time I had a stylist dress me for really grand work occasion. The shapewear undergarments made me look great the best I ever looked in clothes but felt miserable. I couldn't enjoy the occasion because of how awful the underwear was. I felt stuffed in a tight tube. And I was thin to begin with. There is no way I could wear the shapewear most fashion women wear every public outing. Any mention of shapewear and I will run.

I have such a dilemma with bras. When I get the band size right the cups are way too big. What I've been doing is cutting the back and inserting fabric. Ugly for sure but it's the only way I can get a bra to fit. I never used to have a problem but I've gained weight and need to get it off!

I do have two bras similar. no adjustments at all. I am long in the torso so i will need to add at least one inch in the top of the straps to help keep the bottom from wanting to ride up! irritating but with no adjustments they just won't fit everyone well. mine are Bali by Ultra (cheaper through Ultra than getting at Kohl's) .

I looked up some youtube videos about them. None of them showed anyone putting one on. I'm wondering how hard the snaps are to snap. It looks like that could be awkward to do.

These bras fit me fairly well - and are comparatively comfortable.
https://www.soma.com/store/product/e...catId=cat40089 Glamorous, they are not. I have narrow, sloping shoulders, and large, asymmetrical breasts. 38G is the size I wear in that style. (Probably way too much information, but just so you have some idea - ) These do not slide off my shoulders, and with a bit of soft tissue arranging, they accommodate me fairly well. I do not tolerate tight shoulder straps, so the girls are not hoisted up to my chin - but they are held above my waistline - which is a major improvement from going braless. |
