I'm in need of a new bra or two. I'm pregnant and my boobs are growing. I'm in Australia and they size differently here. so not inches but dress sizes. The last time I got measured however they did the add 4 inches and put me into 20C when I went to a proper shop she put me in a 16D. I'd like to order online as it's a bit cheaper. My underbust is 38 and I did the lean forward to measure and that is 48.

So does anyone know about aussie bras?

No, sorry. I never bought any bras in Oz. It was one of my bug bears. I'm a 38H, and bras in that size were mega $$$$ I never got their sizing either.

I gave up trying, and ordered from M&S and Debenhams when they had free delivery to Oz/NZ.

Sorry I'm not much help glad to be back in the Uk though

TravelinColour is right. 8 is a 30 then add two for each UK size so 16 would be right.

48 inches! I think that makes me a GG?

I'm thinking I might have to get something like this or this as there is not much I can find out there with a big cup size. Even the ABA (like NCT but only breastfeeding) shop doesn't have a bra that goes past an F cup.

moaning on a UK based site about aussie bras pretty silly.

This site does a good range of bras including larger cup sizes. And ebay is a good place to get (new) bras once you've worked out your size. You'll find UK sellers selling British brands like Freya, Panache, Fantasie etc who will ship overseas.

That site is great. They even have the Panache bra I'm wearing now for cheaper then in the shops. Thanks
