Girls bras

Hi, just want to ask where to buy bras for a 10 year old? Took her today to try some and they are either too tight around the chest but the cup size is good or good around the chest but cup size too large! She usually wear the girls 15 to 16 m and s seamless crop bra tops and loves the comfort. She doesn't want straps and not really keen on really padded ones.

Bra tops at 10 are fine, I've bought them from
M&S before for my daughters, took my 12 year old DD for her first proper fitting today as i think it's important that they're wearing the right size when they get a bit bigger, we came away with a twin pack of starter bras and I'll be taking her back to be remeasured when these ones get a too small.

Dd wore crop tops at that age
What sort of sizes did you try and where?

My dd hated bras but loved the Gilly Hicks bralettes from Hollister. She’s 17 now and still wears them.

She currently wears m and crop tops size 15-16 which is the biggest size. They look small. She is 5ft and can fit into women xs or 8-10

I meant bra sizes
Have you tried measuring to get an idea of size?

Measure under the bust to get the back size (don't add extra inches)
Measure around the fullest part of the bust to work out the cup size: Each inch difference between under and over the bust increases the cup size

1 inch -A, 2 inches - B, 3 inches - C, (then it's D, DD, E, F, FF, G etc)
