Please help. I'm in bra hell.

It would seem I have very difficult boobs.
I have what the bra fitter call lots of 'problems'. I'm between a 30/32 ff/gg and find that the bra fabric that runs from the under arm wire to the strap comes up far too high. Maybe as i'm only 5ft?The gap between the two wires need to be minimal distance apart and very short as I have close set and full breasts. I have been to bravissamo and was fitted with the satine bra but it REALLY rubbed so I had to return it, I have today tried Debenhams, marks and Spencer's, a local bra boutique and none of them could find anything suitable. Plunge bras seem the best of a bad bunch but I'm open to suggestions. I'm totally fed up. Any ideas where I could try next?

I'm a similar height and size as you . I wear m and s sumptuously soft bras. They fit me well .

Thanks for your reply. I tried the 30g and the 32 g on today in the charcoal and plum colour. The cups were strangely small and didn't go above the g cup.

This website might be able to help, it has the measurements of each bra on the left

If you find out the measurements for the ones you have and then go from there?

I find some of my bras dig in under one armpit after a day. I know its not the best of solutions but I put a folded tissue or cotton wool make up remover pad under it to make it comfy

I'm 32GG. Have a look at the Fantasie range, available online from Figleaves and to try on in lots of big stores
