The phrase "plus size bras" covers an enormous range of bodies and needs — a size 14F has very different fit requirements to a size 22K, and both are underserved by most of the market. At Brava, the plus size bra range is built around larger band sizes and larger cup sizes working together.
What changes with larger band sizes
Brands that go up to larger band sizes include Elomi, Goddess and Sculptresse. Brands that simply scale up from smaller sizes produce bras where the underwire is too narrow, the cups too close together, and the band too short to close comfortably.
Elomi is the principal brand for plus size bras at Brava, with a range that includes everyday, plunge, sports and swimwear. Their deep U-wires and rigid fabrics are specifically engineered for larger, heavier busts. Sculptresse is a good-value option for fuller, rounder shapes at larger band sizes. Panache is strong for busts that need a taller cup height.
