    I do not wear the super 3 inches of padding push up kind. But I do wear the soft lining ones where the lining is a little thicker (1/4 inch) than usual mostly because they give a good shape

    I had the opposite problem. I try to wear minimising bras so I'll look slimmer. I'm also kinda conservative.

    I´m happy with the breast I have, but I always use padded bras (but not push up) because I feel more confortable in them and they avoid to look like Victoria Beckham.

    I have DDs, so no. I tend to avoid padding because it makes me more self-conscious about my boobs.

    I'm a 30A and I don't wear padded bras. In fact, most of the time when I'm out at night I don't wear a bra at all. That's the upside of being flat.

    The only problem with my choice "NO" is that my mom did NOT give me her ginormous boobs.

    Yes, but not too thick though, just enough so they can still look natural.

    I'm with Sophie. If I wore a padded bra I'd be in Allentown and my boobs would be in Emmaus.

    depending on the top i'm wearing, i may wear a bra with molded cups, but that doesn't add much more than a millimeter or two. DDD cups don't really need to have anything added up there, and it might actually be dangerous for anyone standing too close. xD

    Yes and no, I don't really mind. It's just that I have a very thing waist (I'm pint-sized) but have reasonably sized-boobs, so it's often difficult to find a bra that's not padded (I prefer them) but still provides enough support.

    JessNess I'm with you on this one. I don't really need the padding but I like a little for shaping.

    I have a D-cup so I don't usually wear padded bras. Even before I had the girls I was a C and never wore them.

    With some tops, yes, I do. I'm only a 32B, so a little enhancement is nice sometimes. In the summer, though, I am able to go braless a lot and just get away with the built-in bras in some tank tops.

    But I only like bras with LIGHT padding...those VS Miracle Bras and the Wonderbra are so fake-looking. Hate them.

    I always need at least SOME padding. I have pretty big ta-tas and need that support from the padded bras. They aren't push-up ones...just regular ones Smiling

    I wear padded bras, but not really for the cleavage...but for when it's cold out! I'm sorry, but my boobs look like torpedos when I get cold, and if I don't wear a padded bra, then I'd be wearing a jacket all day. lol!

    It's not so much about cleavage at this point in my life, as it is about support. The girls just aren't as perky as they used to be.

    Nope, I don't like the look of them under my clothes, they're to rounded and smooth.

    Ill wear molded cup bras on a daily basis, but only padded ones like the "very sexy" ones from VS when im wearing a low cut dress that needs cleavage
    im a good natural 32C so i like what i look like normally
    however my friends with smaller cup sizes love padded bras, and if i did, i would love them as well

    I wear padded but not to look bigger, but they seem to support better. And yeah, I like to be covered too :]

    i cant understand why women wear padded bras, they offer no support at all & their un-natural and uncomfortable.:/

    I wear a 34DD, but I can only buy bras from Victoria's Secret, because it seems every other brand is ashamed of a woman's curves. Every other bra I've tried on, by many other brands, all push your breasts down, and basically try to conceal your curves.

    I try to make mine look SMALLER, not larger. The more I try to get in shape, the more disproportional I look, because I'm getting smaller everywhere else but the cups still runneth over.

    Other.

    Years ago I could wear 32b sometimes the rare c, and they fit alright. These days 32s rides up in the back, though I weigh 8-10lbs more! Almost seems like bras have gone the way of clothes. (As a teenager I wore size 5 jeans, later as a teen and young adult a size 3. Some of these I still own and they still fit, but there are modern brands where I can literally walk out of a size 0. In 40s-60s vintage I'm a size 5/6.)

    Anyhow, we've been looking for size 30c bras, without any luck but for a few ridiculously expensive ones online. Husband has even looked in asia while on business trips... no dice.

    So if I bother wearing anything it's either an ill-fitting 'yoink em up to your chin' bra that ends up rubbing as it slides around, or the stick on sort just to keep things under wraps in thinner shirts.

    If I could find one that fit, I'd be just fine with the occasional padded bra for the right neckline.

    I have a medium sized chest and I wish I could find more non padded bras. I don't like bras that make my boobs look like fake orbs (like Victoria Beckham) in clothing.

    I have no problem with people who want to wear padded bras - I'm cool with that. I just wish there were more non padded ones on the market these days for us C,D and upwards cup girls. It seems like ALL the new styles have at least some padding and I don't need any more thanks!

    Never, I can't say I am happy with the ones I have, but I definitely don't need any help in that department.

    ahles, try barenecessities.com or figleaves.com -- they carry wide size ranges, you might have some luck there.

    even though my chest is somewhat small now, i went through a gigantic bosom phase in college, which forever turned me off to having large breasts. so padding is a no-go for me.

    Sometimes, it depends on what kind of top I'm wearing because I'm only 32B.
