My Favorite Bras | The BEST Bras for Large Chests | Elomi Cut & Sewn Bras
There are few wardrobe items as important as a great bra! If you’ve never felt the comfort of a great bra, I urge you to go get fitted and feel (and see) the difference!
Most importantly, start with getting fitted for a bra. Go to your local Nordstroms or specialty bra store and ask to be fitted. I did it a few years ago and it was a really lovely, comfortable experience. These fit specialists are trained to be totally professional and truly change the game when it comes to feeling comfortable in a bra.
During my fitting, I learned about Elomi Bras and fell in love! These cut and sewn bras fit me so well and provide the lift I’ve been looking for (and unable to find in Target bras!) Cut and Sewn bras are great for larger-chested women because they don’t add bulk AND they provide really great lift. The seams are sewn really flat so they are pretty invisible under clothing and if you line up your nipples with the seams, you won’t end up with any “headlights” situations! If you haven’t tried them, make sure to ask about them during your fitting.

- Elomi Matilda Bra – I own this in a few colors and wear it almost daily. It’s very comfortable (when properly fitted) and provides an excellent lift without any bulk.
- Elomi Charley Full-Figure Bra – This bra is excellent for everyday wear and fits similarly to the Matilda Bra.
- Elomi Charley Spacer Bra – This bra is perfect for more traditional t-shirt bra situations. I don’t find the lift to be AS good as the first two, but it gives a seamless look.
- Wacoal Red Carpet Strapless Bra – This is my FAVORITE strapless bra and the only one I wear! It stays up easily and gives a nice shape.
