I have been looking for a decent well padded bra that has the straps that cross in the back (so they won't keep slipping off the shoulders) in 40c preferably in black. I know about the adhesive and things like that but would prefer not to have to use them. I am not using forms yet and prefer not to have to "stuff."
I have been able to find this kind only up to 38c and 38d but they weren't padded.
Any ideas?

Hi Ashleigh, you might also try www.biggerbras.com They have tons of selections. I haven't seen a padded one in the size your looking for, (but I haven't checked), and you just might find one there since they have several options. Good luck in your search.
... and here's a link to their "closeout" & "clearance" pages:

They also sell those "Strap-Mates" for the back straps.

Ash;
what I found that is better than a bra are those padded support cammi, I like the ones found at the NEW YORK Company & The Limited, its all owned by the same company. Anyway they are like a combo sports bra with a padded bra inside and requires minimal stuffing. It is a pullover and a trick to get off but well worth it, you can wear them without a blouse as well or a blouse with the top buttons undone. They come in XS, S, M, L, XL, Im 140lbs and wear a small. these are like a tank top bra so if your dress requires a bra you can't use it, but for everything else they are the best and comfy too.
