When Jenette Bras busted onto the Los Angeles lingerie scene a couple years ago, large-breasted ladies across the Southland took heart. Finally: a chic, modern place to buy D-cup (and above) bras that don't look like they were designed to withstand a nuclear blast. Proprietress Jenette Goldstein, whom you may remember as the ass-kicking Private Vasquez in the movie Aliens, likes to say that she “comes from a long line of women who are big on bosom and short on patience.” With Jenette Bras, she has done the heavy lifting and pulled together tough-to-find brands in an impressive array of larger sizes — up to 44 carats. From romantic Empreinte date-night plunge bras, to strappy Marlies Dekkers balconette bras, to absolutely-no-jiggle Elomi sports bras, this place is the big-breasted girl's one-stop boob-management shop. 4308 Melrose Ave., E. Hlywd. (323) 665-7490; 18 E. Holly St., Pasadena. (626) 744-9484; jenettebras.com.
