I'm a large woman, 250lbs and a 42D in most bras, minus a cup or band size depending on the bra in question.

As this bra is made of mostly cotton and has no padding, I should have considered this and purchased a 40C.

That being said, the bra is incredibly comfortable during this hot summer we're having. It's much better than the nylon bras. I've gone as far as to jimmy a set of pads to go under my breasts in order to give myself proper support in this bra until I can purchase a replacement.

I will be trying the Extreme Comfort by Fruit of the Loom again. I think it's a good bra that I simply purchased in the wrong size. If, though, I purchase a full size smaller and find that it's still not fitting properly, I will not be trying again.

I do not suggest going down a full size in other regular bras, but I was a bra fitter for a year and a previous job and from the band to the cup, this bra is all in all too large for me. I'm wondering if two full band sizes down as well as a cup reduction [one size down in the cup though] may fit even better. We'll see.
