Any other tall women with small boobs find bra straps are always too short?

I did the bra intervention and found that my size is 30C. I tried a bra on in M&S and could only find the Angel range in my size. The cup was perfect but the straps were far too short. Ok, fair enough, it's a children's bra and I'm 6 foot tall, but with the right straps it would have been ideal, so I'm frustrated.

Even my non- intervention bras 32A or B from the normal range pull dreadfully on my shoulders when the straps are fully extended. I think this may be because a standard strap is put on all bras. But small bras don't reach as far up the chest as large ones, so surely they need longer straps?

I'm not talented with a needle and thread, so I was wondering if anyone else with small breasts has had this problem, and is there a solution?

I am also 6ft with this problem - straps are never long enough. No solution sadly so watching with interest!
