Search for the impossible? 34 AA bra

Yes that's right. I am a 34 AA and i cannot find this bra size ANYWHERE!
Currently buy bras in primark as they have 32 AA bras but they haven't had any the last couple times i've been in there
:(
I buy bras purely for decorative purposes so am looking for bright colours/patterns.
Is there nowhere that caters for the -ahem- athletic chested female?
It seems every effort is being made to cater for the big busted now but us ladies with bee stings are being ignored!

Did you go to the bra guru link, OP? You need to measure bent double so that you measure the dangling bit. Doesn't sound like you're an AA if there are bits that hang down.

You're not adding 4 inches on to the band measurement are you?

There are lots of companies that specialise in smaller cupsizes. Little Women is one (although they say they sell AAA which is pretty much physically impossible)

You are not a freak, it is just that it is common for folks to use the old fashioned way of measuring (adding 4"), and if you were measuring wrong you would struggle to find a comfy bra.

E.g. when you say your official band size is 34, but you can fit into a 32, well... that makes me think your "official" band size is probably 32. If not smaller.

Its 33 if i pull the tape measure super tight.
Most of the 32 bras aren't comfortable and leave red marks! Thats why i was hoping to find my actual size.

Not sure why everyone is so surprised at someone being flat chested. I'm not super skinny, just an unfortunate pear shape. My hips measure a whooping 42 inches!

If you've got dangly bits when you're leaning over, they must be giving you an inch or two. Have a go at a 32A or 32B? The red marks from a 32 band might be because what tissue you do have is getting squashed under the band.

Crepey problem we can deal with separately, you are not alone there...

SorrelForbes · 17/11/2013 23:11

A 32 in a AA will be too tight because your chest is stealing material from the band to compensate for too small a cup. Try a 32A/B/C in non moulded styles.

Speak to TJ over at www.bras4all.co.uk - she can give you fitting advice and source your size - she was really helpful fitting my daughter. She stocks Sweetling bras which are really beautiful.

I am trying to buy a couple of new 34AA bras and M&S now only stock 8 none of which are remotely pretty by any measure being all what I term bread and butter bras. They are nearly all none wired so don't make the most of your assets such as they are. I need a sign that says this way up and yes I am a very small 34AA not a C or a B or any other letter of the flipping alphabet.

ZOMBIE THREAD

This is from 2013

Pinkmouse15 · 13/09/2021 10:04

I have come to the conclusion that small girls are just not catered for, big girls yes because they are in the majority. So us small girls get lost in the cut. I have tried Little Women but I wasn’t over impressed with the offerings. I just want a nice push-up bra that does it’s job. Plus a couple of pretty ones, is that too much to ask to have some pretty underwear?

Oh, ffs. I never get caught by these but I did today. Bastard spammers.
