Also if any of you know of any online sites where i can order just to save me some sweat .. I can't speak for every woman but in my experience even though a man may have good intentions, the lingerie men choose is most often than not just for appearances and not for comfort. I dare say that sexy numbers with lots of lace are often itchy and uncomfortable. A little anecdote: When I got married at 26, I thought wearing a white lace bustier and panty was going to be sexy. It pinched and chaffed. I regretted putting myself through this torture and never wore the thing again. Was it sexy? At the end of the day, we were too exhausted to test it. But if you must, Triumph shops are not expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychosid10 Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 (edited) Well , to be honest , i would rather look for something thats comfortable rather than something thats just appealing to the eyes. coz it does not make sense to me how can any one do that to his gal.. but i have realized that the more comfortable a woman feels in a set of underwear, the better she looks coz she feels much better .. am i right or is it just the romantic side of me speaking ? anyways , thanks a lot for the tips .. catthy figleaves was awesome for ideas .. I ll try sneaking into a Triumph shop some day soon Edited October 4, 2005 by psychosid10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psychosid10 Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Hey Ilyushin , what do you mean by 'rather interesting stuff' ?? you gotta tell me that . for obvious reasons.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexLah Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Ha ha ha Ilusyin, I agree with you. Lady's, the power of the women is the fantasy of the man. Most men like to see their GF in sexy lingerie, stockings, garter belt, corset, high heels things like that. It is ok lah, just for the two of you when having a fun evening, I am sure when you dress like that he will be crawling, ha ha ha. The only problem for foreigner girls is where to find the bigger sized stuff, I mean high heels size 11 (43-44) that is a problem I guess, maybe Bambina knows? Cheers all and have a good time!

Yes, you are so right. It is hard to find brassieres particularly. Thai stores tend to carry the smaller cup sizes. You just don't find anything larger than a B cup. Thailand is the only place I ever seen a bra labelled AA, even smaller than an A cup! And the US average is now a C cup. Then there is the issue of band size, or how big around your rib cage is. Thai stores typically carry 34 and below, with very few 36s to be found. And 36 is the most common band size in the US. Shoes aren't quite as big a problem. Any woman wearing an 11 would have some trouble finding her size here in the US, never mind Thailand. The most common shoe size in the US is 8.5, followed by 9 and 8. Those sizes are readily available in Thailand. I wear a 7.5, which translates to a 38, and while shopping for shoes I see many size 40, 42, and 44 shoes. You have to be careful, though, as some brands size them incorrectly, saying they are a 44 when they are in fact a 38, for example. Other brands are sized accurately. You have to try them on.

When I shop here I have to remind myself that I am the absolute average size everything back home in Canada. 36C, 8.5 shoe size, height, wear medium in most labels. Alas, I am an extra extra large here (as I was in China as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

llewynx Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 It's not only the cup sizes, it seems like Thai bras have their cups closer together as well... and higher somehow. Have tried a few different ones on, and they never seem to fit. Have B-cup in farangland, and have tried evrything in B and C sizes here (when I find them...) - so I guess Thai girls have narrower chests than us white ladies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
