Bras

Can I have your recommendations for the best place to get fitted, please? Preferably in central Manchester or Birmingham, but I can do London too at a pinch.
I never seem able to find a bra that fits me.

Bravissimo. Hopefully you will have a shop near you. You need to book for an appointment especially at the weekend. John Lewis have been pretty good in the past too.

DOn't go to M&S.

I get fitted at Bravissimo but MIL swears by Rigby & Peller.
I buy my bras from everywhere though and have had to size up by one back size as I thought my bra was getting extremely tight (I decided on a 32 and it's made the choice wider too).

It looks like it's bravo to Bravissimo then.Grin I was under the impression they only did ones for well endowed ladies. Looks like I was wrong.

Another vote for Rigby & Peller. Don't forget to re mortgage your house first tho' Wink

I used to buy 34B until I was fitted as a 30E (now a 32E).
I would still check them out.

John Lewis can be very good - though no branch in centre of either Manchester or Birmingham. Stocks bras for small cup sizes as well as large and at a full range of prices. They do tend to have a booking system at weekends, so worth checking first.

Rigby and Peller are the biz, but very expensive.

Bravissimo are good, do the job well and you don't have to sell your soul.
