Bra fitting help!

[horseygeorgie]

I've been sent here to talk to you experts from the lovely people on chat. I posted the following there....

I have no idea what size I am. Was fitted at M&S years ago as a 44D and have been mainly wearing 42DD for years as nowhere seems to do bigger back sizes. Yet again I have to buy a new bra and am just so down about it. Mine always seem to ride up, the straps seem to fall down and if I tighten them any further the whole thing bloody lifts away from my body. The wire is always digging in under my arms and poking me and I'm just so sick of it!

ANY help and advice?! I'm thinking of duct tape.

Of course it is

Yes, it is absolutely OK to try them on. Even M&S have changing rooms for this (even if they tell you you're wrong on the sizing). It's also OK to take them back if they hurt/are obviously wrong after wearing them for a few hours. Bravissimo (I don't work for them, honestly) are especially good for this.

thanks guys.
