When Are you bringing the butterfly bra to California!!!???
I want to buy one!
I think Jill is one of the most beautiful american black woman inside and out. she’s an amazing woman.i’m a large woman and i dont look even 1/2 as beautiful as her.and the bra is an amazing thing . i just wish i had 1, maybe someday.
Cant wait to see you in Chicgao. ;-}
Hi, I’m not a large woman, but I find Jill really sexy and beautiful for a long time, with or without butterfly bras. Everywoman can be cute and beautiful as her own way: that’s what I feel and think when I see you, Jill.
Go on Jill!
Thank you.
Jill: I watched you on the Good Morning Show today with the introduction of the Butterfly Bra. Finally someon has come out with a comfortable bra for the full figure woman; and to have it in my favorite store Ashley Stewart. I applaude you and Ashley Stweart. Thank you so much. I can’t wait to get them in all colors. God Bless You and keep on keeping on! A beautiful bra from a beautiful person.
I want every color there is in that bra!!! Praise God that there is a bra with some serious support! I am telling all my sista who are “highly blessed” in that area! LOL! Thanks Jill!
Thank you Jill Scott for not just being a awesome artist, but for creating something for our full figured women.
Thanks a lot !!!! Jill it just what we big beautiful babe need to keep it all in place thank for being so talented in all ways.cant wait to buy one

Your response is greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Norma
I Can’t Believe I Missed This =(
.>_<.
I will always love Jill Scott for who she is….and who I THINK she is. With that said, I’m semi disappointed that the Butterfly Bra only goes up to a cup size of DDD! The average chick has boobies that cup size! I sent an e mail to Ashley Stewart when they were in the process of doing focus groups and I specifically advised them that if you are going to do this, don’t half step with this and please accomadate those of us who have larger cup sizes! An H or I cup is not unusal these days on full figured hotties such as myself, so hopefully, Jill and Ashley are still working on this. Never the less, I am glad that Jill once again is showing another dimension to us. Get that money Honey!!!
Congratulations Jill!! God Bless you girl.
Hey Jill,
Just a little disappointed I won”t be able to see you in the instore today in Maryland.I’ve already ordered the bra online. And I luv it. Too bad I can’t say thanks in person. Jill keep doing what you
Hi! Do you have any suppliers or stores in Colorado or New Mexico? What is the average price range for your bras? I wear a 36 J, and it hard to find my size plus find comfort and support as well.
You help is appreciated.
I really hate I missed you in Maryland!
So Beautiful, Butterflys and you too :):):)!!!
You should go on Oprah and have a select audience of healthy “Butterfly” women in the crowd for an exclusive promotion on the air. Have full-figured models to model clothing with the Butterfly Bra in both strap and strapless styles for the audience and hime viewers to see how well it looks under clothing to enhance a womans look. Just and idea, but I bet Oprah would be on board for a promo on her show. Luv Ya Jill!
I am truly heated because when I called the store to confim the time and address I was told that her visit wan’t open to the public. If it wasn’t open to the public then why was the event posted on her website?!
This woman is absolutely breathtaking. I just love these pictures, I just can’t relate to the bra. Do your thing Jill!!
Jill,
You are such an inspiration. Keep doing great things.
Jill, I think it’s great that you helped design such a supportive bra for the big girls, but once again, I feel left out. I’m a big beautiful girl with really big tatas…..even larger than a 44DDD, which is the max size for the Butterfly. It would be nice if those of us who are G’s, and H’s, and I’s, and J’s could enjoy such a great invention…….especially since we need it more than most others. I know that our sizes are not carried at Ashley Stewart, but maybe one day (sooner than later) the Butterfly will be distributed at other retailers that cater to those of us with even bigger, beautiful breasts.
I need my Butterfly Bra!! When can I buy one!!??
Jill,
I was very excited about the new bra, but I’m a 46 DDD so it really is not helping me. I guess I will still have to suffer.
Hi Jill,
I was so excited that you have teamed up with Ashley Stewart to create a bra for voluptuous women. I went on line to order and my little hard sank becaue the sizes were not expansive enough. We want comfort, we want choice and we want style both in color and design. Jill, you forgot about the girls who need 36, 38 double J or K. That ’s what I need. Some women probably need a little more than that. When we define voluptuousness we some how stop the dial at a few triple D’s. HELP!! The alphabet does not stop at D for some of us. I am a dress size 10-12 when I am good. I love what you have done. Let’s expand the alphabet - I want a butterfly.

Jill Luv ya Lady I loved you in Why did I get married > I luv your Butterfly collection but I am a size 38 G Come on I thought you were giving Big Girls Luv too
I am so glad that someone has actually came out with a good supportive bra. I only have one suggestion can you please come out with some bras that go up to fifty plus. i am a plus size women and I am up in the 50’s and it’s hard for me to find a good bra. I would resally appreciate it if you would take this into consideration.
i luv jill scott she makes me feel beatiful all the time
i heard her on the steve harvey morning show and i will support her new adventure///
I can’t wait to buy the bras. They look great the double back support.
I have been top heavy since I was twelve and my biggest problem is finding bra’s that fit comfortably. I want to know when is this bra coming this way.
Also, I am a big fan!!!
Lov the look of the butterfly bra but some of us are somewhat more indow , myself 44DDD this something I been looking for since they stop making the playtex longline bra.
You know what? This is truely a releif to see that this bra was desinged by someone, first hand that has experienced the problems from being heavy chested over the years…Thank you for presenting this. With that said, this means that you, Jill, put your all into the creation of making this bra work for all highly blessed women across the world. I WILL purchase all colors ever to be made. I LOVE my brest sitting at attention and with much support. Are the Bra’s coming to the Mil-Town? This is Wisconsin!
Ms. T
Keep it Sexy
I heard the announcment today on the Steve Harvey Radio Show. I could’nt wait to get to a computer to check out the preview. I am sooo excited!!! I love Jill’s style and I know that she can relate to the pain we often go through with the wrong fit. I am also looking forward to more colors! Cuz I’m Sexy too !!! Thank you Jill you always represent us well !!!!
I just want to thank you for always showing the world that plus sized women are a site to behold. Thank you for showing we can be sexy, confident and divas. God bless you and contiue the great job you are doing.
Damn you have to give music, movies, poetry and now this! Thanks you are amazing! Wish you success in all your endeavors.

Jill, Thank you so much for such a wonderful bra design for us busty sisters. I will now feel more comfortable wearing fitted t shirt while I’m getting my figure back in order.
WOWWOWOWOWOWOWOW! I wish I could have been there! Good to see Miss Kim Coles reppin’!! LOVE IT! I am gonna have to get to an Ashley Stewart store probably in Chicago and check it out…since there are NONE in here Minne”crap”olis. LOL
MUCH LOVE, JILL!!!!!!
I went on AshleyStewart to view the bra and I ended up shopping like crazy! They have some cute stuff for the thick woman!! The bra looks great too even though my bust size doesn’t need all that. I STILL support Jill!!!
Jill you are a Wonderful ,Blessing set from Heaven .MY GOD BLESS YOU all your days.
where can I purchase a Butterfly Bra? I live in Linden, New Jersey. Why are you being so incognitio in where to purchase the bra on your website. I need it badly.
I think you are absolutely beautiful, I love your music and think you have a bright future in movies. I will always love my full figured sistas first and foremost. You can’t please everybody with your product, but you are at least trying to let the ladies know you understand their pain and are trying to help as many as possible for now. Ms. Scott, please continue to go for yours and I hope to see you win as many awards as you can dream up. God Bless you
How can i buy one of these bras? what are the sizes
Ms. Scott,
You are an inspiration! When your Butterfly Bra launched on Ashley Stewart’s website, I was there! I admire everything about you! Thanks for being a DIVA! Thanks for being you!
Your #1 Fan Forever,

I certainly hope there are plans in the works to bring a Ashley Stewart store to Anchorage, Alaska so that we can have the opportunity to purchase and enjoy the Butterfly Bra. There are many hearty, full figured, robust, vibrant women that live here and would certainly enjoy the benefits of such a sensational undergarment.
can’t wait 2 buy one
I saw you and the bra on TV and I felt like crying, someone knows what I’m going thru, being boobilicious(SP?) and all….So, where can I buy one of the butterfly bras? I have to try on something before I buy it, and I like needed one yesterday!! Please help in Youngstown, Ohio.
I have never used those bras, but hopefly, that will be in Tallahassee, florida soon. I want to place a order. My size is 52DD. So what store will I find them here in Tallahassee, Florida 32301. But I am trying to get some surgey because, my back is giving me a fit.
Breath reduction, maybe that will help a little.
Miss J Scott, ur yo sweet soulful voice sends thrill down my spine. I tremble whenever i hear yo heart warmin lyrics. Sisi u r a lyrical lunatic ya know. Im from South Africa n hopin to c u there someday…
P.S Plz try n collaborate with Glenn Lewis,Jaheim,Amel lerreaux,Dwele or Raheim Devoune
Bye…
Jill-
I am a 29 year old having the most difficult time finding a corsette in my size. I am getting married on August 16th and need a corsette to be fitted for my dress. I am a 34DDD. I hear that the size is abnormal, but I know there is a variety out there for me somewhere. Do you have any suggestions? My fiance has spent hours searching on hundreds of websites for one with no luck. I am so discouraged and even thinking about a breast reduction. I want to be able to wear the cute lingerie on my honeymoon. Although I have a rather small frame, I just can’t find the matching pantie and bra set. I have heard that some women would die to have them, but I just want to be rid of them at this point.
You have done such a wonderful thing in launching this full size line.. Please, please implement my size in your line. I love you more and more as you grow.
Love

Jill,
I was so excited when I heard about the bra, but my excitement soon faded when I realized it would not be available in the 36 series above the Ds. My biggest problem is finding a bra with all the qualities of your design for my frame. What about the semi-volumptuous female? We would really love to finally be included.
hello jill my name is tanisha and i am a big breast women i was about to get breast reduction but i change my mind because i got scared .do your new bra come in size 40j ? i hope so and i love your music and acting you did a great job in why did i get married. keep up the good work girl !
Ms. Scott,
First I would like to say I loved you in the movie “Why did I get Married” so beliveable before and after you enpowered yourself. Now I would like your help in enpowering a wonderful friend of mine. She wears a 48C longline bra and when I saw you on TV I thougt your Butterfly Bra might be the answer to her bra problem. I was unable to fine a longline butterfly bar in your collection. Maybe you can work on a longline bra and if my friend can find some comfort in her bra, I’m sure you will have her for life. Thank You so much.
Hi Jill,
I love you so much girl. i love the fact that you created something for the full-figured female with style and class. I would love to try your bra but theres one problem theres not one in my size.. my question is will you be adding some more sizes (48d, 48dd, 50dd, or 52dd). Please consider adding some more extended sizes.
Thanks,
Lele
I noticed that your bras only come in DD–DDD. My daughter is a 38H are you going to go that high with the sizes or is the DDD as high as it will go. I think your bra would be perfect for her.

Jill,
This is the best thing a woman could have done for full figured women. I want to thank you for reading my mind. I need to buy every color you make. I get so tired of pulling at my bra strap in public. People look at you like you crazy. They just don’t know you just have clothing malfunction. That’s again cont. to allow God to use you girl.
Love Ya

I want to know when is it coming to Phila because my husband Gomez was listening to WDAS and they was talking about so he was and is still telling to go buy a couple
Please tell me who is selling the Butterfly Bra. I really want to try one. I am tired of carrying the girls around!
I really love the idea of this bra. For years I have also suffered with straps digging into my shoulders and as a young woman the bras that have a little support not being sexy. Our problem (my friends that are healthy as I) wear more than a size 44dd. We would also like to be comfortable and sexy. Would you please consider catering to the girls who are above 44dd such as 46, 48 and 50. We promise to buy them.
I need that bra! Where can I get it? Call me, write me, hook me up girl!
I needed that bra so log ago. Thanks for creating it.
can’t wait to wear it.
Finally a Chicago show!
Got my show ticket & airfare ticket
See you there Queen Scott
Love ya
I heard about the Butterfly bra off Steve Harvey’s radio show in Chicago the last week in May. I went on the website and saw a 4-6 week backlog. I heard Jill say that the bra would be in the stores June 1st. So I waited until that time, went in the store prepared to buy at least 4 (four) bras, only to find that none of the Chgo stores and surrounding area have them in stock and that one can only purchase them online. (hence the extra $8.95) one has to pay for shipping and handling. I consequently ordered only one (1) on line. This deception to the public needs to be addressed.

Looks like a great idea. Unfortunately, the butterfly collection does not include my size. Glamorise does though, and they are pretty comfortable.
I want to know when will the butterfly bra include C cup sizes.
Love ya,
Jill
I’m a full figure woman and i have the problems that you spoke about regaurding bars . I can’t wait until the bar comes out in chicago
Ms. Jill Scott, thank you so much and Ashley Stewart for stepping out and bring reality to our world. But the Reality is we need more size ranges and cup sizes to be added.
I was very very excited when I heard about and saw your new Butterfly Collection, but I was quickly disappointed when I saw that you didn’t carry my size. I am dying to try this new bra out, but I am a 50D so I really hope that you will make larger sizes. Most plus size woman are larger then 44DDD. God Bless you and May He enlarge your inventory Very Soon :).
I am a 50DD. Does anyone know if “Bra Extenders” will work?
Take Care
I love it, when will the bra reach Charlotte, NC, I love to buy one, I been waiting for a good bra for us big figure women. Please let me know. Love ya girl.
I think that it’s wonderful for someone like Jill Scott to team up with Ashely Stewart to make a wonderful Bra for full figure women such as myself !! because I have been looking full figure bra that don’t hurt my back and under my breast!! I have been having back problems because not wearing the right size Bra!!! I need something to make me feel good by wearing it won’t out it hurt underneth my breast!!!

Ms. Scott I went to StoneCrest last week thinking I was going to order the butterfly bra but, to my surprise I couldn’t because of the sizes. I wear a 38ddd in the other stores which I have a very hard time finding the kind of bra I need. I have back & neck & shoulder issues. I’m really tired of looking. Anyway I love the bra but before they hit the stores or even afterwards please think about this. In your new line I would wear a 34ddd because the 38 was at least 2 sz’s 2 big across my back . Please make the bar in all sizes/cups becauses their are all types of sharps which I know you understand but their are women who are not plus sizes but are top heavy. I go to ashley stewart & buy my tops. I will purchase the bra hopefully when other sizes are incorperated. Plus the second fastings co
