Totally agree with ur findings regarding covering and cleavage. I got measured at bravissimo and they have a wide range of different shapes and styles all of whixh are detailed and explained in their catalogue and online.
I find I can create a cleavage better without a wired bra on at all. Or just by wearing a crop top. My surgeon advised not to wear a push up bra for up to a year post op as it will likely displace the implants.
My favourite brand so far is Freya I love their fancies range and have a two plunge bras in different colours. They do come up quite high on the cup but give a really nice shape. The good thing about Freya is they go down to 28 back in lots of styles. Although the bigger ur cup size ie. FF, G,H more likely they have a limited amount of styles which can be very frustrating.
Remember there is such a thing as sister sizes where u can go up in a cup and down in a back and vice versa of u cannot get ur size. Also some companies are more /less generous in size than others. But if u go with a sister sized bra u will get less wear our of it because its not ur true size. I can find out more about this online and when u have a fitting.
I only wear a wired bra to work and go braless or wear a non wired soft bra/ Crop top on the weekends. My surgeon also gave me the all clear to sleep without support when I turned six months post op.she said becasue I’ve got unders they’re fine and won’t droop.
Ur best bet is to save an afternoon to try on lots of different styles and bring along going out and work tops to see how the neckline is. As it really comes down to preference, ur size/frame. I dislike padded push ups and never want to wear one again tbh so tend to go for practical bras as I only wear them for work.
I love being able to go braless and have fullness and volume but obviously this isn’t everyone’s preference. Fxx
