Itty bitty and OK with it (sort of)

I'm small too and just checked out the website. Quite frankly a little underwhelmed. Very limited choices and horrible return policy. Plus I would like to see actual pictures of the bras, not just a drawing!

I've had good luck finding bras that fit me at figleaves.com. They have a broad range of brands, sizes and prices. They also have band sizes that are smaller than 32. I'm a 30B myself so you can imagine how difficult it is for me to find anything that fits and actually look like it's made for a woman (i.e. not a training bra complete with pink hearts and whatnot).

Thanks for posting this though! I always hear about the plight of the more generously endowed. Rarely do I hear about the bra shopping problems of those with smaller "girls."

I wish I could be among the "undersized" chest wise...

What about the gals w/ the big guns?

Hi.

Itty Bitty and Proud!

Best,

I wish there were more stores with the small breasted bra's available. This one is cute and I would buy it but, we need more pretty bras!!!

the real "challenge" is finding an A cup bra that isn't padded, even itty bitty bras are "lightly padded"... hardly anyone carries them anymore...the world is padding-crazed... push up is just fine but i hate padding! among other things it makes your chest sweat!!

i can totally relate, veronica. i mentioned to my husband once how hard it is to find an a cup that's not padded or push-up and (the sweetie that he is) went on a mission to find one that fit the bill. he gave up, but he tried so hard!

I had great luck after my first real (and free) bra-fitting at Lady Grace in Woburn. The associate asked what size/kind of bras I had been wearing and what I was looking for, measured me, and brought in a number of choices in various price ranges, and then brought more after I narrowed down the choices. I wound up with a Playtex Thank Goodness it Fits style in Violet (woohoo!), and just recently ordered 2 more in black and nude.

Their bras aren't bad, but you should check out Journelle (journelle.com) in New York. Tried on a few pairs and never knew my girls could look so good. Went home with four bras that continue to simultaneously hold me up and make me feel tres sexy.

BTW....There are digital photos of our line. You click on each sketch and a photo will be blown up! Just thought your "stylephilers" might want to know. The photos have always been there....just a simple click of the button!
Thanks.

I just googled "Itty Bitty" and was directed to a porn site. Hmm... Full name of the bra website is ittybittybra.com if you'd like to avoid the same experience. Unfortunately, while perusing their return policy (thanks for the heads up, ittybitty2) I found out they only sell to licensed retailers, so there goes that option for many of us.

But I was delighted to read this blog entry & the comments from others who share the same frustrations. I'm annoyed that bra manufacturers assume if you are small you must want padding. Many of us don't!

So far my most comfortable experience has been with Playtex Thank Goodness it Fits, which like Bonnie I discovered at Lady Grace (in Coolidge Corner).
