S/C/G: 404.4/404.4/???

Height: 5'8"

Default Unusual Bra Size

I'm a big girl (duh, I'm here) but I have small "girls". Even B cups are too big. And I can NEVER find bras that will fit me. Does anyone know of any places to buy bras in unusual sizes? Thanks in advance!

Here's what I did.

I went to the Victoria's Secret site and read and read and read. Especially check out what's wrong with the bras you have .... puckery cups, riding up band, slipping straps ... Measure, measure, measure .... Then start ordering.
They are very good about returns.
I just kept at it until I found one that I liked very well and now I've purchased the same one for years! Very comfortable, beautiful colours and sometimes on sale for less than $15!!! (I have paid over $90)
Having a well-fitted bra is worth the work and perserverance!

At onestopplus.com I see bras as big as a 44 come in A size, and as big as a 54 in a B.

My daughter can sympathize. Just because we're big women doesn't automatically mean we have big bazoombas.

That describes me well! I'm barely a B and was even at my heaviest. (God help me when I get to goal - I'll probably be concave) I was too embarrassed to go to a department store to get measured because I was certain they wouldn't carry my size, my band size is too big for the likes of Victoria's Secret, and my cup size is too small for Lane Bryant's bra department, so I did a lot of reading online to figure out how to measure myself, then did some online shopping at places like HerRoom.com and BareNecessities.com. I just returned what didn't fit. Now I'm a 44B (more like barely B, but 44B's are easier to find than 44As). There is a much better selection of 44Bs than when I was a 46! I figure it's only going to get easier. Good luck! Just be persistent and you'll find something eventually. If you don't though, there are actually companies that can custom make you a bra.
