To be fed up of larger sized Bra's costing the Earth and being ugly?

[Emprexia]

Its not fair... i may be a 40FF but i want a pretty bra.. and one that doesn't cost me over 20 quid a time!

I don't want to wear something that looks like a granny bra, i'm 26 ffs, i want to look and feel pretty!

I'm so fed up of seeing all those gorgeous bra's with the pretty lace and colours and bows and finding they only go up to a 36C... i haven't been a 36C since i was 15!!

Bravissimo do lots of lacy, colourful bras in big sizes, but they do cost a bit.

Can only recommend Bravissimo (as a 34 DD girl meself!) but they are not cheap. Worth it IMO as some are very pretty and make a huge difference to one's shape

I'm sensing a theme...

try fig leaves too

I know about Bravissimo, lol, its why i added the bit in about the cost.. i do like their bra's, i just can't afford 28 quid a pop.. not when you're supposed to have a few good ones to chance between.

ASDA do a Jordan range that goes up to a G. They are cheap and pretty. Debenhams also has a range now that goes up to a G, reasonably priced and very pretty.

can i recommend brastop.com they have lovely bras at low prices, fast delivery and excellent customer service.

I am 27 and have 40E knockers.

I buy from Harwayes.

Do Debenhams and Asda do a 32 back size? I've always had problems because the cheaper bigger bras always seem to start at 34 at the smallest.

lots here cheapest one £11.95p

Oooo! I love that website katz.

As cheap as possible.. lol.. i'm ranting because my hooters have expanded again, lol.. so i have my carefully cultivated collection of 40F bras that are now redundant.

My credit card won't take a heavy lingerie hit.

its great isn't it! i've bought loads from there including swimming costumes,and knickers are good prices too so i have lots of matching sets

Kaishay - try ebay. I'm an unusual size and find I can get loads of good brand choice there at bargain prices.

It helps if you know which brands fit you well so you don't have worry about it not fitting.

anything in the bravissimo sale on their website?
this orange number is in your size and £17.50

I know Bravissimo are blisteringly expensive, so what I do is go in one of their shops, try on everything that looks good, no matter the price and make a note of the ones you like best.

Then leave the shop empty handed. go home. Sign up for their emails. You will then get advance notice of sales stuff at half price. Order your chosen bras as soon as you get this email coz they sell out quickly.

Works for me... I've even got fab bikinis for the first time in my life

katz you should be on commission as am off to buy some from there too!

TMMJ - i'm a 22/24.

wobbegong, i saw that.. orange isn't my colour though.. i'd be cast out of the Gothic circles for wearing that.. hehe.

There are bras from Bravisimo that start cheaper than £28, even without a sale. They tend to have sale on all the time, but you have to look at the website for sale.

Ann Summers has started to do some larger sizes, going up to a G cup now.

It is hard when you are a bigger size and yes I do think they should be better available. Take a Break is running a campaign at the moment about this topic.

It is most annoying when you see stick on bras for strapless/backless that only go up to a C. If I was up to a C I would go braless if I had to wear that dress! My virtually flat chested sister saying "You don't know what it's like, I have to wear a bra" is rather annoying.

Simply Yours are quite good too. I have ordered a few bits from them and now have a couple of nice matching sets!!

They quite often have sales on where I have picked up a few bargains.
