I need some help. My breasts are beautiful and want to show them off. Alot of patience growing them. I have search online for a low cut bra. Problem is my rib cage is 44" and cup size is small B........can't find one. No problem if I was a 34 or 36 not 44. Is there a company that makes custom low cut bra?????
Has anyone else had this problem???
You could also check out Fredrick's or Victoria's.
I have that problem too. Next thing I am trying is a 38A with a strap extender so it fits my 42/44.
If you find a bra that works for you please do share.
Have you tried going to a bra fitter at one of the local department stores? Most larger stores have someone who can help you. If they don't have a bra that fits your criteria they can usually recommend one.
Victoria's Secret will measure you and help you find something that works. They always help me!
I can't walk into V/S. Do not look enough female
I'm pretty sure they will measure you anyway.

Me too....they are so nice there.
I think you're going to have the same issue that plagues most of us that are in the "large band/small cup" group. Sure you can find a 44b bra and the band will fit just fine, but the cups are all out of whack. I suspect that for me the 3 inch diff between my chest and bust is part boob and part trapezoid muscles. I'm guessing an A is going to be a better cup fit than a B. :(

I lol'd hard at "trapezoid" muscles. It's trapezius muscles.

I really doubt it down here in the bible belt. This is not LA or SF or NYC
My breast fits in a B cup of a 36 not a 44. The cup size grows with the band. Custom???? But who can afford??
Woman Within (http://www.womanwithin.com/Plus-Size-44-B.aspx?dims=1000000274%3a1000000335&DeptId=19683&dimorder=1000000054,1000000274,1000000021,1000000061,1000000452,1000000103) ...they have a LOT of larger band bras, with all cup sizes.
ETA: They mostly look conventional, nothing too riskay.
I was hoping for a bra with lace and low cut. Its taken a long road to grow them. I want to show off my boobs. Not completely cover them up. As I said earlier, my breast is a B cup at 36, but my band size is 44. A 44B is a huge cup.
So what is a girl suppose to do? ??? ?

Hmmm...Maybe get a bra that fits, even if it does have too much material...and like any good surgeon, cut away the excess until the amount of skin you want does show...hem the edges, trim with lace, and you're GTG.
Bra material is pretty soft, so it should be easy to hand-sew. It might take an hour, but then...your dreams await!
:)
Thanks, that is a good idea
If you look up Brassiere Measurement on Wikipedia and read the section on measuring cup size without a bra, well let's just say it can be a bit of an eye opener.
e.g. I have a 40" chest and a 43" bust, which by standard measure should be a B cup, but using the other method I only just get 7" which is a small A.
So if you take that and the craziness of how bras are sized, I'm going to need to get a lot bigger before I fill out the cups of a bra with the correct band.
If you go by underwire size the volume of the cup for a 44A is the same as 42B 40C 38D 36E 34F 32G 30H 28I
Talk about crazy, who came up with this system? I bet it was a man.

Probably because he wanted to "physically inspect" each set of breasts just to be sure of things.... ??? And in the process, his notes got...umm...distracted.
Lane Bryant (I believe that's the name of the store) carries larger bra sizes, though I do not know how racy they are.
We were in V.S. yesterday, and they don't stock any bras in the store larger than a 38" band size.
Good Luck - Sadie

Bet you, one who was thinking how to make to most one size to fit most, as that is much cheaper.
But the small size large band size are made ,the do cost more then the average but are there.
Other option is to make your own :) always handy knowing how to sew.
Word of caution on using extenders, the make the place of the straps wrong ,male have a flatter ribcage anyway.
I might try this one.
