Above average style for the above average bust.
You’ve probably already read about Fraulein Annie. I’ve drooled over photos from this brand but never written about it because I didn’t think it was available stateside. That’s about to change.

When manufacturers and stores say there isn’t enough demand for clothing or bras in our size, it’s easy to feel incredulous because we’re connected via the internet to full-busted women all over the world who share our frustrations with fit. Are these businesses blind?

1. TJ Hughes has a website called Bras4Mums that includes a post from Claire, who was a 34GG before pregnancy. I’m looking forward to following Claire’s bra journey through her second pregnancy, and I think some of you will, too. 2.
