28 inch back bras, where are they?

New Year, New Bra...
I've measured 29 under and 33 over. That makes me a 28D as a starter size. However, I can't see many 28 inch bras for sale. Any shop recommendations? I thought I could try a 30C (M and S sells these) and just go to the tightest setting instead. Any thoughts?

have a look at www.brabandproject.com/ - it's really useful for giving an idea of what a bra size really looks like. Helps to dispel the DD = bloody huge myth!

Exactly. I'm 5'6", 10 stone. Not the skinniest Minnie in the world but I do have ridiculously narrow shoulders and a small back. But I look at people and think, you must be smaller than me, must be. What about posh spice, she must be a 24 or something, though I suppose she can afford to have them made specially.

I think exactly the same AnyCrunchy. I'm no skinny Minnie either, and a 28E/F. Or even g I think. Can't think I'm that unusual and yet it seems in bra terms I am ultra petite. Hmm

Thanks statistically, that's very enlightening.

I'm 5'6, weight uncertain as I refuse to weigh myself after christmas Grin but around a size 14 and weight somewhere north of 12.5 stone (gulp)

Still a very definite 30 back. I was a 32 at 8 months pregnant.
