Sorry for the essay, but I want to give information as I am getting desperate!
I have recently lost weight and a couple of months ago went to get fitted at John Lewis when I happened to be in London. The assistant measured me as not dissimilar to what I had been before - we were trying bras around 32e/f - 34E. I had been a 32F before. We tried dozens and she made me feel a bit bad as she couldn't find one that was a great fit. The closest she came were a 34 E in a DKNY t'shirt bra and a 34E in Triumph spotlight which I still felt were a bit loose.
They didn't have the colours I wanted, so I ordered them online and when the came I really felt the band was too loose, so decided to wear my old ones and wait for the sales.
I have ordered tonnes and none of them really fit well at all. The closest was a Fantasie Susanna and a Fantasie Belle in a 32e where the cup was just a bit too big and the shape a bit wrong.
Now I really need suggestions. I am down to one bra which I can actually wear, although it is too big. It's a Cleo Juno in a 32F and is baggy and greying and I just REALLY WANT SOME NEW BRAS! I really like the shape but I think it is a bit of a cheap bra and has never been very comfortable (which is why I haven't tried a size down in it yet). The shape is really good for me, and I do think I really need a balcony style as my breasts are not very full on top (and others don't look right at all).
Any suggestions of something I could try? And thank you very much for reading my bra essay! I would like one in black - or dark coloured - and a nude smooth one as I wear a lot of white, but totally understand if that is just a fuss too far! I will take anything as long as it fits!
