I also wear the Cacique bras, they are very comfortable and fit well, the no wire cotton bras are my choice.

Here's what I found online about the Genie bra.

I've tried the Ah Bra and it was No AH for me. It felt like a straight jacket and the banding in the front that they say won't ride up did on me. I sent them back and it's taken 5 weeks and I still don't have credit to my credit card. They also have very high handling fees. A 19.99 bra cost $39 with shipping and handling. WOW and they don't refund any of that fee. Buyer beware!

Don't know about this one. I have to have adjustable straps. Can't take all that pulling on shoulders. I am going to get me a Miracle bra from Victoria Secrets. Will make us flat girls look good. DD has one. Better than a boob job.

I've been making my bras for about 5 years. Check out my post under General ChitChat for Quilts are not all I make (bras)

I so agree. I am a 34D and every bra out there is padded! Yikes! I like to try them on before I purchase them, but may have to go to ordering one online.

I found online a new way to figure size: go to:

I haven't checked and hope it is still there.
