If you're reading this, then you can definitely relate: You're standing in a lingerie store, surrounded by beautiful, delicate, lacy things that look gorgeous on the mannequin but would offer about as much support as a piece of dental floss for anyone above a C cup.
I see you.
As someone who's spent years in the trenches of big-bust bra shopping — with many a flop (pun intended) — I recently put out the call to my fellow chesty colleagues at Mamamia to share their holy grail bras.
You know, the ones that actually keep everything where it should be, without making you feel like you're wearing your granny's foundation garments.
Watch: Mamamia's What Are You Wearing? Post continues below.
The response was immediate and passionate (because when you find a good bra, you want to shout it from the rooftops). The big titty committee came through with recommendations that tick all the boxes: supportive, comfortable and — praise be — actually pretty.
Armed with these tried-and-tested recommendations from those of us who actually understand the struggle, you can skip the years of trial and error we've already endured. Your boobs — and your back — will thank you.
The best bras for big boobs.
Simone Pérèle Singuliere Full Cup Control Bra, $169.95.

"If they are too low-cut I end up getting 'four boob', so they need to have full coverage, and this one does!" — Annaliese (me!), Lifestyle Producer.
Triumph Airy Sensation Minimiser Bra, $64.95.

"Sometimes a gal just needs a minimiser to keep them bolted down! And this one delivers." — Grace, Producer.
Simone Pérèle Andora Rigid Seamless Bra, $129.95.

"I literally only wear the Simone Perele Andora bras" — Morgan, Partner Strategy Manager.
Triumph Lacy Minimiser Bra, $64.95.

"Triumph has the best selection for bigger breasts and I really like the minimiser for days when you want to feel extra support" — Courtney, Executive Producer.
Simone Pérèle Caresse 3D Strapless Bra, $149.95.

"Simone Pérèle is the only strapless bra up to the task!" - Cass, Morning Editor.
Skims T-Shirt Bra, $98.

"I have a few from Skims, but this is a great everyday bra. I have one in black and nude and wear them both to death. They give good shape and support and sit nicely under clothes" — Talia, Group Strategy Manager.
Victoria's Secret Wicked Unlined Lace Balconette Bra, $84.19.

And another recommendation from Talia: "I have heaps of different styles from Victoria's Secret but find myself reaching for this style when I want something a little bit nicer than a t-shirt bra. It's unlined but still gives nice support and shape."
Taking Shape Side Smoothing T-shirt Bra, $89.95.

"If you don't have it in your life, you need it! Keeps a silhouette smooth under tees. Game changer." — Tahli, Producer.
Nala Mesh Balconette Bra, $59.

"I really like Nala bras, surprisingly good for big boobs! I have the Mesh Balconette in black. Very supportive and looks — Syd, Senior Growth Marketing Manager.
She Science Matilda Plunge, $94.95.

Also from Grace: "This range goes from DD to J, comfortable and supportive and caters to my size."
Bendon Sofia Underwire Bra, $74.95.

Also from Cass: "This is a really cute lace balconette that is actually so supportive. No padding, so you're not adding any unnecessary volume."
Panache Envy Balconette Bra, $99.95.

Also from me, Annaliese: "Great support, great lift, can't fault it!"
Panache Ana Plunge Bra, $99.99.

"Ana Plunge is my favourite and lots of nice colours to choose from" — Megan, Group Strategy Manager.
Bras N Things Bethany Full Coverage Underwire Bra, $64.99.

"Bras N Things have great designs and all of their bras go up to bigger sizes now, so lots of beautiful options, with great support." — Stef, Group Executive Producer.
