1) No guys are allowed to open a thread in GC except in the Fashion and Beauty subforum. A suspension of 3 days will be given. You may, however, reply to an existing thread.

2) From ur tag, u are a male right?

sorry.. it was my gf who asked the question....
i don't know anything about it until this morning.. sorry for all the inconvenience

Bro, i didn't meant to flame u and i am sorry. Dun worry bout the mod, i think he will forgive u. He is a nice guy btw.

Is it D sized? Most shopping centres like Jusco or Giant only sell up until C size, and if it's any bigger than that, then you will have to visit those lingerie speciality shops which One Utama has a lot of those shops (which are most probably more expensive but then they have almost all kind of sizes BUT beautiful pattern and designs).

ermm.how bout wacoal?Their bra are mainly for big size one.The price range is about RM20-RM300.I bought during the J-card member day.very cheap.2 for RM 29.but mine is C.if bigger than C,i think 'll be more expensive.

Wacoal... only Jusco sells them right? I've actually seen others that are more expensive than that price range you mentioned.

Actually, I don't think that just because the bra size is bigger then its more expensive. For example, will the Nike shoe be more expensive just because I want to buy a size 12 and not 9? Of course not. It's still the same price except for the sizing.

The reason they are expensive is because the branding. And the quality of the smoothness and softness and the durability and the comfortability. Not forgetting the cute lacey designs too.

So far I think the most expensive is Triumph.

I saw in metrojaya also.
i mean,they normally have cheap sale on the smaller size.
not those hanging nicely one.

Hmm, ok, I lose. I didn't know about Metrojaya. X_X~

Are those you mentioned sold in the shelves piled up together like mountain ones?

I suddenly can't remember a brand I saw, but its only normal plain white color and with normal white strap also cost like RM 300 over... X_X~

I don't know if they have this thing called "warehouse sale" which means the bras will be sold at VERY low price because they wanted to clear that stock or whatever year end thingy. And usually these kind of sales doesn't happen in shopping centers.

just dun get pasar malam's one la..later ur gf's boobs will sag

no need wear la .. follow ang moh

haha no lah if dun wear not sexy.

what price is average?

cheap bra no gud~
gud bra not cheap LOL

For the brandless ones, at least around RM 30. If you're lucky you might happen to find some nice ones comes with undie as a set together.

the one your using xcute

my average is about rm 60 - 80
I haven't seen anything nice at rm 30
Even pasar malam already rm 30 rite

how to define a Good Bra as?

something pretty and comfortable ? no idea.

I've seen before really. Do you mean your budget now is RM 60 - 80?

Pasar malam ones even RM 5 can get already...

Added on January 24, 2008, 7:43 pmIt all depends on your persoal opinion. But mostly is the comfortability I guess. No use to wear a nice looking bra, but you didn't feel comfortable because maybe its too tight or too lose, right? Or perhaps nice looking but the cloth quality easy to break...

yaya.but they arranged nicely so that it's easy to find the size you want.
i think it's calvin klein.very expensive.no lace.just plain clothes.

***********************************************************
for me,a good bra can support our breast.at the mean time,it's comfortable to wear.
and there's some function bra,'ll make your breast look bigger and firmer.
the main purpose we wear a bra is to support our breast,isn't it?

Lol CK... I think not so good one... if you want plain better go for the cheaper ones like the ones in Jusco, eerr.... I think it's called "Passione"? Or was that from Giant? lol...

And you're right, the purpose of bra is mainly to support breast. But some wears it for fashion purpose (or maybe to show to their bfs lol), and some actually collects them like how people would collect stamps, just like a hobby.

The bra that you mentioned that makes breast look bigger and firmer are called push-ups. Most bras have this inside it already.

i don't have budgets. If I like it I'll buy it. But of course if its RM200 I wouldn't think about it. RM100 is still reasonable if you really like it. I buy from overseas =) Get them posted to me. I don't like bras with those push up thingy and also those with the pad thing.
I got one from Tangs in Pavillion, Banana Republic. RM 200 + for the set.

almost all my bras from xixili...
so comfort to wear n nice...

now they having promotion RM 120 for 2 bras...
i think its quite reasonable price...

Woah. You must be very rich huh... all of yours really all bought from overseas?

Added on January 25, 2008, 4:50 pmA loyal xixili supporter eh... lol... the panties how much they sell (at the cheapest)?

This post has been edited by LunaG: Jan 25 2008, 04:50 PM

Piere Cardin not bad....Peng Leng Zheng...
Budget...

RM60 for 2....get it at isetan.....
usual i think is 40 n above...
PC undies very comfortable....well-known by ppl....

Thanks for the tips. Do they have like lacey designs? What about the cloth? Silky enough?

i think now sales season cheapest xxl panties RM 15 - 30 if im nt mistaken... last week i bought 2 n @ RM 25.

Xixili brand?

BTW, where is TS? No feedbacks from him or his GF.

I personally prefer Xixili. I like the designs ..sexy but not much options.
its ok..about RM80..not too expensive compared to triumph.

good bras definition for me is:

1. it is the right size for u, not too big, not too small. make sure tried it b4 buy

2. the side muz be wide, so tat the flesh of side of the boobs wonnt run out of shape

3. those bra which 'add on' some sponge better don buy, it wil keep 'pushing' ur boobs in

hehe.. my mom was selling corderev lingeire b4, she taught me

overseas not exp
about RM 100 per set? or less? i think better than buying in shops here.
I buy online =D
As long as you know your size should be alright?

paqralos, as far as i know. Victoria's secret offers the most comfortable bras. Go to their online store and see if they deliver to Malaysia. their prices are not too far off from Wacoal and Triumph.

I like Wacoal and Triumph though.

Good bra give u the support you needed
wont go up if u lift ur hand up
maintain ur shape

average for myself getting a bra is 100
cheapest for my size i could get is 80

i normaly go for wacoal, parfage and gorsat(not sure of the spelling) bra

don't buy a bra without trying it first.

if u can't find a size coz ur too big, try looking in xixili. they have cup sizes up to G cup. plus, xixili emphasise more on the correct fit and support rather than the design

Hey u want cheap and comfortable??? I make for ur gf la..ask her to come to my house i check check her measurement...

Piere Cardin cheap but the lifespan is super short. I used to have em.
Their material not too good

Lacey design. VS got plenty. but if in Malaysia O Lingerie in Tangs not bad =) Pretty nice.

Victoria's Secret are nice and comfy, thats true. Just went for a VS shopping spree in US. So happy =D but came back broke. 1 Bra USD 38.50 *faint*
Delivery is expensive though if you wanna order them online.

absolutely. i usually wear triumph but recently i cannot find the type and fashion i like
so this new year i go and try pierre cardin. not bad as i can say. beauty and comfort

marks n spencer ...

from plain colour to lace ...nice too! price i think reasonable

Added on February 28, 2008, 12:35 amxixili brand is no good ...it looks good n price reasonable...but it's not comfortable! ...mayb u should try some imported brand's bras,then u will know what s comfortable ...

This post has been edited by blax3: Feb 28 2008, 12:35 AM

wei gals the TS asked for cheap and comfortable la..u all recommend all those import and expensive branded one how can he afford..

he did mention the size of the breast abit big...
local made one seldom got big one la...
imported one only can find those big2 one, and they are basically more comfortable than those normal one...

just because a particular brand does not suit ur body, it doesnt mean that its no good. bear in mind that every girl has diff body shape~!

basically cheap things wont be good and good things aint cheap
when i was a teenager my mother always bought me some lingerie from pasar malam. it is very cheap but not very comfort. but now i bought myself from those department stores with good quality and very comfort though

Yes! Good point dear! Give me FIVE!

lol high 5~!

i just cannot tahan when ppl ban a certain brand to everyone just coz it doesnt suit themselves

Added on February 28, 2008, 11:38 pmanother thing.. dont buy pasar malam stuff.. cheap bra not worth the sagging u will suffer in the future. breast will go out of shape if u wear wrong bra in long term

This post has been edited by Jyezze: Feb 28 2008, 11:38 PM

well it is true tat size bigger the bra wil b more expensive..i experienced b4 me n my fren bought the same pattern of bra..but diff size...n also the price is difirent~

best bra = a man's hands

yeah! piere cardin is the best! ^^

pierre cardin the quality not really good le.. wear longer d will become lose.. and end up straight cannot wear.. and wear d look damn flat.. ^^

Err...I usually don't post in this section but the topic sort of made me came in.

Funny that nobody mentioned LaSenza.

I previously was working for the company that distribute this brand in Malaysia (among one of the brand they sell) and got to know more about this brand.

This brand have very good quality products and they have a patented seamless bra. The whole bra is one piece. It doesn't have any seams or joints. Heard from my ex-colleagues that they are very comfortable. I think it sells for RM100+ but should have promotion or something.

Go try yourself and see. They have shops in all usual shopping malls.

La Senza, most of them i saw during the sales, dont have the section to insert pad or no push up. (i need them, im Small...)

so, not so much my fav. I saw some of the girls are supporting Xixili, me too! before xixli, piere cardin was my favourite. But after switching to xixili, i realise that their bra would go out of shape so fast. ie, the rubbers , the straps last longer - didn't lose it's elasticity that fast.

How bout some brands in the tangs, like Morgan, parfage or pourmoi, something like that? Anyone tried that?

but xixili is so expensive..
how bout triumph? they are kind of cheap in thailand..
i'm finding a good bra but all so expensive.. can't afford..

I've bras on truimph, sorella, xixili..

if u like to have cheaper bra and those japanese design of bra, u can actually come to my thread to have a look..
i'm doing pre-order on these..

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/701091

D Cup~!
...

Anyways,
Correct me if I am wrong, but I heard La Senza is part of VS.
I went to La Senza retailer before, during sales.
It was not worth it. Lack of selection and ... urgh ... Not so nice prices.

Ordering VS from online is much cheaper. Plus they have a wider variety of selection.
Pierre Cardin is not bad. Their bras are soft, feels like cloud .. Lol.
But most probably it was just the type bra that I bought.

I get my bras from Xixili. The one at Metrojaya in Sg. Wang has friendly and helpful staff. Even helped you measure what size and cup is right for you and even teach you how to do proper fitting. It might be a little awkward and embarassing at first, but it's important to get a properly fitted bra and wear it properly. If not even a RM 30 or a RM 300 bra will not last and you'll have problems.

La Senza is from Canada, Victoria's Secret is from the US.

IMO,u need to go n try the bra in fitting room no matter what brand.most important is that it's not too tight but not moving when u lift ur arms...few more criteria which i forgot but i'm sure the staff at d shops will tell u =) there's bound to be a comfortable bra no matter wad ur budget is.

A question though:
Experts say a woman should get a new bra like every yr coz breast is fat tissue n its volume changes over time,so how often do u buy a new bra?

anyone else facing this problem with xixili?how long wil u change ur bra once?

d averaga price i buy rm40-rm80. very uncomfatable2wear.even triumph n wacoal also uncomfatable,d price ady about rm100.very sad.dono whre2get good bra

TS, you can get cheaper but good quality bras from Jusco, Isetan etc. The cheaper ones are those normally put on those "push carts"/baskets (those not hanged on the rack la, I don't know how to describe).

If you plan to buy it as a gift, I would recommend Xixili and La Senza, expensive but it's so gorgeous.

Otherwise you can look into their cheaper range. Triumph is a good buy also. A friend of mine loves the Pierre Cardin range because affordable and they come in cute sets (bra + panties).

And most important, know your gf's size before you buy anything.

My opinion is never go for cheap bra. My bra size is fairly big as well and i had tried a lot of brands. Brands like wacoal, sorella and triumph, you need to try on different range then you will get a comfortable one. Normally, it won't be cheap. I bought one from La senza before, and it is only OK. So far, my favourite brand is Sorella. How often do I change my bra? hehe...depends on my mood....i always buy when there is sales

Hmm... I think d lingerie stores here r kinda limited. Hav 2 buy online. So ma fan! Guess so far d best 4 me is Xixili.

Me wearing Triumph before. But seems very tight & the price is quite expensive. Now change to XIXILI. More affordable & comfortable. ^^ The Sales Girls always providing good service.

for those who are in the budget,there's quite a num of bra shops in town nowadays...u can get it from jusco,sugei wang and all the shopping malls =)

Have you guys tried Avon? They have very cute and very very affordable bras. They even have a range called big beautiful which offers quite nice bras for bigger women. If taken care of properly, the bras can last a long time. Try it. You can even get up to 20% discount if you become a member.

the average price of xixili?

later sagging .
You not a female a d**K will never understand

wow ... this thread still going strong.
I opt for xixili, i think its long lasting

I bought my bras from THAILAND (not the cheap ones where your saw in night market) and its superbly comfortable. If you happen to drop by or visit thailand DO REMEMBER TO BUY THE BRAS FROM SHOPPING COMPLEX!

Wacoal is the best choice. In Japan, they have more choice & size selections. In Thailand, the original one also costs cheaper than in Malaysia. If you go for the ordinary design, it costs only around RM50.

Besides bra as protection, bust massage gel is also important.

Flat chest also can sag?

i think having a good bra is important...
dun simply wear bra caz it can be one of the factor that caz breast cancer.

Added on December 13, 2008, 2:20 ambetter spend more money to get a good bra than save money to get a cheap bra (low quality)

This post has been edited by pinkling: Dec 13 2008, 02:20 AM

i think cost price for bras is cheap
just depends on the branding and how much they sell
good quality thing sellin at cheap price, our mindset is 'ohh its cheapo low quality stock'
if they add branding and sellin higher price, people will think its quality stuff
this is what i know lar cause my fren got doin some bras and panties sales outside and i know the cost price range
correct me if im wrong =D

so far triumph tops my list of bra. want to try wacoal n xixili no enuf money. bought 4 seamless triumph bras at MP last week; onle only cost RM 30. so far mcm ok jer

hey..i hv a big size bra eh..brand new of Sloggi..it's wasted to put in my wardrobe only..not my size...

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/827700

WACOAL WACOAL WACOAL...NEED TO BUY WHEN SALE!!!!COMFORT!!!

i would recommend xixili at 1utama.. they have big sizes and the chinese aunty working there is very nice n helpful...
i would say dat once u've tried their bras... u wouldn't wanna switch brand.. coz it's really comfy and when they have sales.. it's really good buy!
