Another bra question - minimizing bra that prevents nipplage??

[sln]

I need a bra that prevents nipple "pokage" in thin shirts, but that doesn't add a cup size. I'm already a large C/small D and don't need ANY help looking bigger. I usually wear a minimizing bra, but I need one that is lightly lined or padded to prevent the headlights from shining Any suggestions?? - Sarah

Yes!

One day I just got completely fed up with never being able to take off my blazers at work. I marched into the bra dept. at a dept. store and told the saleslady about my problem. She came back with a few bras for me to try on, and I was shocked that she was handing me what I thought were bras with padding. She laughed at me, and explained that all those bras I thought were padded just had molded cups to deal with my exact problem. For YEARS I thought all those bras were padded. I was wrong. Now I can't imagine life without my fabulous Wacoal bras, and I never have to wear blazers or cardigans around the office anymore. I stay a lot cooler and happier.

Are you sure those bras you're seeing are padded? Ask the saleslady. Why would they make padded bras in our size anyway, right?? http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/sprachlos/speechless-smiley-016.gif

Again, I recommend the Body by Victoria line...my friend and I call it the granny bra b/c it's not cute, but it definitely is no-nip. There's also one called the t-shirt bra (it might be Ipex) which offers ample coverage and is seamless.

Thank you!

Thanks for the recommendations, Nancy and Cathy. I'm going to head to the mall, and I'll check out VS and the Wacoal bras. Thank you! - Sarah

I agree with Nancy about the molded cup bras. I've worn both Wacoal and Le Mystere and I love them. My absolute favorite bra is the Dream Tisha Lace by Le Mystere. It's a t-shirt bra and it's very flattering.

I too am in need of a better fitting bra.

Michele, the Dream Tisha Lace looks too lacy to be smooth under a t-shirt, but the Dream Tisha looks very smooth. I'm going to try it next time I go to a department store. Thanks for the recommendation!
