So confused on bra size

  • If you do a search for something like "small band large cup bras" you'll find online retailers that will have your size. It sucks not to be able to try them on, though. I wish Target would carry decent large cup bras. Maybe you could head to your local strip club and ask the dancers where they shop .
  • Quote: No problem. So I found this website for swimming suits: http://www.biggerbras.com/m-swimwear.shtml and it looks like I could order by cup size and there I'd be a 34GG from what I understand. That being said I now have no clue what size bottoms I would wear! Why does this have to be so complicated?

    And how in the world did people find clothes that fit before the internet??

    That link is wonderful!!! I have the hardest time buying bras because no store carries my size in a decent looking and fitting bra. My band measurement the last time I measured was a horrible 52 but my bust was only about 55 or 56 so my cup size does not match how big my actual chest is. Going to a lot of stores for plus size women they just automatically assume that the bigger you are the bigger the bust but it is not always true. That website is great! I am going to treat myself to a new bra and sports bra when I hit my first mini goal.
  • Kelli: Barenecessities.com or bravisso.com, among others.
  • That last link doesn't seem to work. If you mean Bravissimo, they're far pricier than they need to be. There are loads of good quality online shops around selling the same bras for half the price.

    Yes, bravissimo.com, sorry for the mistype.

    In the US they seem to sell at list price. Where are you finding these same bras at half-price, other than ebay?
