Some good advice I got about bra shopping is to pick one that feels great when you hook it on the LOOSEST eye. All bras eventually start to give in the elastic, and if you start on the loosest eye, you still have room to tighten up the bra by moving to a tighter eye. Hope that makes sense
Amen! lol
I have been fitted at a store and they match what I measure myself at, and I had hubby measure me and it matched too. I just don't get how the cup sizes are so varied I am in a junior size band size and yet I need an adult size cup. It is just so frustrating.
A lot of these made me laugh. I am so there with you!!!
I used to have problems finding GG, then I got a breast reduction and now, no one can seem to figure out if I am a C, D, or DD. I think it depends on the company. I find I have to try on 20 bras to find one that fits, and that is AFTER having been measured two or more times.
Bra shopping is totally worse than about any type of clothing shopping. I am a 42GG, and I can barely find bras. I am never able to find them in stores. I have to buy mine online - usually at Lane Bryant because they generally have more than one or two to choose from, unlike other places. You're looking at $40-$80 for special sizes. Maybe the C cup bras are cheaper on there, you could take a look - I just know the special order sizes are high. You could also go to Lane Bryant (or another place that does it) and have them measure you to get your exact size, and they'd have C and D cups in their stores. Though that is kinda uncomfy.
Unfortunately, Lane Bryant doesn't carry a band size smaller than 36. My favorite bra ever is from LB. If anyone is reading this thread & loves LB bras, I just looked at their website & they are on sale--bogo. I am currently searching for a new favorite bra. It seems like as I lose weight, my band size is going down & my cup size is going up.
