Finding a bra that fits

I am 44 and have never had a bra that fits. M&S measured me at 38 D but it was literally baggy at the back. I went to another shop and they measured me at 34 D- how can there by such a wide discrepancy in size? I measured myself and it came in at 36 D but then that seemed baggy at the back. Someone else suggested going up a cup size but down a strap size so have tried 34DD and now the cup seems too wide.
Aarrgghh.
AIBU to think bra fitting seems like a bloody dark art?!

Those of you saying that Bravissimo fit you too tight - you are allowed to say it's too uncomfortable! Try the bra, when they leave the cubicle have a wiggle and a jump and basically move. It's true you need a tight band and that they stretch, but they don't stretch so much that they should be almost bruising you.

I've had a bra like that but for me it was because I'd got fatter Blush
