With age, I came to enjoy my barely-there boobs (and the ability it affords me to go bra-less pretty much whenever). But I still had about zero sympathy for my younger sister and her bra-shopping woes.
“Wow,” I’d respond to her complaints, “It must be so hard to find something to make your gigantic rack look great.”
Turns out, it is. I recently found a viral video of a New Zealand woman ranting about the dearth of cute, lacy bras available in size double-F, Intrigued, I polled my office to see if this is really a problem for well-endowed women. The answer was a resounding yes.
So I broadened the scope of my investigation, and asked other chesty women in my life about their experiences with bra shopping. Their answers astounded me. They went far beyond superficial complaints and into hard-hitting issues about body image and acceptance — issues that I, as a flat-chested pre-teen, ignorantly thought I struggled with alone.
Below are some of the insightful, eye-opening, and often hilarious answers I received from my friends and family. Busty ladies, read them and commiserate. Fellow flat-chesters, get ready for a surprise.
And everyone, keep in mind that for each woman out there pining for more cleavage, there’s another one wishing they could rock an Urban Outfitters bralette.
I think what sucked even more is I was this 13, 14 year-old girl trying to fit into my body, which could only be supported by the ugliest, plainest, frumpiest undergarments. It made me feel ugly, fat and lumpy — not to mention super constricted for fear of having a wardrobe malfunction, or running too fast, or standing up straight for long periods of time because of my back pain." – Chloé Ghattas, 22
Basically I think that bra designers just replicate the same structure for larger bras that they have for smaller bras and don’t take into account the actual body of the woman wearing it … I would gladly join bra burners except that I need a bra unless I want the whole world staring at my bust. So yeah, did I mention that I hate bras?" – Erin McConnell, 21
