Where to get the most comfortable bras
My breasts are now a different size and my current bras are becoming uncomfortable. I'd welcome recommendations about where I might go in Melbourne to get both a thoughtful and caring service as wel...

I am in NSW, but found the mastectomy fitter in David Jones was lovely, caring and thoughtful. They have a dedicated change room for fitting, as do Myer in Qld pacific Fair (I was on holiday there), so possibly they have the same in other states.
I had a lady come to the house with my prosthesis and found she carried by far the best range of bras as she had every style of Amoena in just about every colour.
Wonderful service, caring, down to earth and though some were very expensive, I just said I had to pace myself and get the most practical ones first. She totally understood.
She also had the form to fill out to claim the prosthesis from Medicare too.
Best and Less have zip front bras in soft cottony material and the stronger sports bra type material as well as the pull on over the head crop types if you aren't too big.
I am wearing the zip front one while I go through radiation as it is nice and soft. They have the removable padding and you can put the Berlei soft form in the pocket. I find the regular prosthesis a bit heavy for the crop type bras though they fit, they pull them down too much, the soft form is fine though.
Target have two styles that take the prosthesis, both quite comfortable, if not at all stylish, but getting your size is very hit and miss, they never have a good range at my store. Good price though.
