Is it just me? Bra related

Is it just me or do the shops think that big cup size magically equates to a big band size? I've been scouring my town and not ONE shop has anything for an FF cup in smaller than a 36 back! I know , I know, I will have to go online but should it really be so hard to get a single bloody bra?!?!

Try TJ over at www.bras4all.co.uk/ - she's been my fitter for years and can get hold of lots of different sizes - I'm a 34 GG

On the high street, Debenhams, JL, HoF and Bravissimo are your best bet.

Agreed it's a total pain in the backside. I can buy online no bother but I'm a 30hh and locally that means debenhams, jl or bravissimo. they are the only options. it's pathetic.

Annoying isn't it?!

But be thankful though - I'm in NZ and we pretty much don't have proper bra sizes here at all! Shock I have to order them online from the UK...

And the sad thing is that UK is a bra paradise compared to any other country in the world. I live in France where they don't believe in sizes over C, you might get a D in nursing bras, but of course starting from 36 back then. I'm a 32GG. Even when I was a 32F, I have been repeatedly told in many countries that I must be mistaken, such sizes don't exist.
Some italian brands make all bras in B cups only - according to their fitting advice, you should simply go up in back sizes if you need a bigger cup Hmm
