I have been bigger busted since I was in my teens and for years I've struggled with finding comfortable bras and bralettes that don't cost an arm and a leg that only last a short amount of time before the underwire betrays you and pokes you in the chest. Recently, I got introduced to Sugar Candy Bra which is designed with bigger busts in mind and I thought I would share with you all my thoughts on Sugar Candy Bras from someone who is a G cup.
Sugar Candy Bra is specially designed to give you comfortable bras that are designed with 'UpLift Tech' to help you achieve support whilst also giving you separation and sizing flexibility whilst being completely wire-free. The interior of their bras feature U-Sling Technology which is reinforced with heavy duty powermesh which helps to mimic the shape and support of an underwire which helps to lift and separate your boobs without having to worry about an uncomfortable wire sticking in your chest. The bras have a knitted support panel which is made with Softex which makes their bras durable and long wearing whilst also having great stretch retention. The support panels and underband are ribbed and firm to give you extra support and lift.
I really like that Sugar Candy Bra offer a sizing quiz because I am completely hopeless with converting traditional bra sizes into the the likes of small, medium, large etc but they also offer a fit troubleshooter and size calculator which really helps if you're really unsure which size to go for. I decided to go for the Basic Fuller Bust Bra which is what started it all off for Sugar Candy Bra. It has a really soft but stretchy fabric meaning it's comfortable enough to wear all day without getting that feeling to immediately want to take it off as soon as you walk in the front door from the day.
As we all know bras stretch out with age and regular wear so I really like that the Basic Fuller Bust Bra comes with six rows of hooks meaning you can get the perfect fit even with long time use. I went for the rosewood shade which is £49.90 as I thought it would be more neutral so I could wear it with more outfits. I really like the ribbing on the underband because I despise when bralettes roll up under my boobs and I end up with a red indent from it under my boobs. I was so impressed with how comfortable this bra was to wear even after having it on since 6am but also it actually gave me shape and I didn't give me the monoboob look.
I used the sizing troubleshooter on their website to figure out which size would be best for me and I'm always doubtful with these online quizzes cause sometimes the fittings can be completely wrong whereas the Sugar Candy Bra quiz was completely spot on. On thing I am completely in love with is that on their website, they have a drop down menu where you can see pictures of a model the same size as you which is perfect cause it's so hard to envision how it would look on you. I have already got my eye on getting several more including their new Bestie Bra because I've quickly become obsessed with them.
