S/O bras -- anyone have slopey shoulders?

[orval]

I broke my collar bone a few years ago and cannot get straps to stay on. I also apparently have narrow-ish shoulders and huge boobs. I look for bras that have the straps closer together on the back. If you look at the back on this one, you can see the straps are closer set.

This has worked for me. Unfortunately, I can't find a bra that fits my 34H boobs well and stays on the shoulders.

I can't EVER get straps to stay on and I end up messing with them ALL DAY. 

I do NOT have broad shoulders. 

I do probably need to be fitted again, but I'm fairly confident in my bra size. If I tighten the straps so they don't fall down, the band rises up. 

Suggestions?

This would indicate that your band is too big. I'd get fitted again, preferably at a specialty bra store.

A racer back or V-back design is the best option.

I love this bra-

Check out the back- it stays in place and is very comfortable.

Me! Every once in a while I get them adjusted just right and they won't fall down. I have a couple of bras that have elastic in the straps which stay up really well.

Racerback forever. I have slopey shoulders and nothing stays on, I now have 4 racerback from VS that I love. I can't always wear them it depends on the cut of the shirt but I'm always happier when I can.

I've tried a 32 band before and it's physically painful. Even if that's the "right" size, it's SOO very uncomfortable. 

It wouldn't be terrible to try again I suppose. 

You could try getting a band extender to wear temporarily while you break it in. Bras stretch out pretty quickly but it absolutely sucks when they hurt.

My 34 is tight but they do stretch. I use an extender for a month or two before they stretch and then they are perfect. Sometimes I will wear them for a few hours before they become painful and then switch to an old one to help stretch.  36 is really to big for me

I have that issue, too, and ditto the racerback design suggestion.

The only thing that ever helps me is lifting weights and defining my shoulders

It is so annoying though. Having to push up bra straps all day is the worst.

What about using these for the bra's you currently own?
