I measured myself following the 'rules' and am a 32 G-GG. I have been to Rigby and Peller (bought from there once before) and was fitted with a T-shirt bra but had to return it as the strap had a sharp edge and cut my skin.The fitter explained that I was a difficult size as my boobs are full and I have very little gap between them also, as I'm short (5ft) the top of the wire and where the strap starts always rub as the gap between the two is small.Does that make any sense?
I have found balcony bras better for my shape but am at a loss where to else to try as I can't find any suitable at Marks, Debenhams and BHS .
Any advice?

If you don't want to pay R&P's eyewatering prices get fitted at Bravissimo. Lovely bras and MUCH cheaper!

They do look very pretty. My nearest ones is nearly 2 hours away though.May be worth a trip there.

what are the rules?

I would do a phone order with Bravissimo. Their sales ladies are lovely and seem to know which bras are big in the back/cup, wide-set etc etc...
I have your problem with wires - am a 34GG and 5'3". I have found that the Panache Cleo range suits me as the side wires are suportive but not long and diggy. Also Cleo seem to separate my boobs a bit as I hate them squiished together at the front. i also like their round perky shape. If you want T-shirt bras try the Cleo Deco and Juna ranges.

FreshLeticia - thanks I will take a look at them now.

Hi

I'd suggest trying the Fantasie Smoothing Balconette in a 32G. It's really good for the description you've given.

Marriednotdead- love the look of those many thanks Smile
