The first bras to feel pretty good a year  after breast reduction. It's not easy to find a 42 C or 40 D that works so far! I sometimes wish they didn't have padding, because it does add to the appearance of the size of my breasts, but padding seems to come with the territory in bras with underwires that are cushioned. They are affordable on Amazon, and they don't cut into my shoulders. I hope that they will wash well.
