Boob or Bust - Help Needed Please

[mumtoadancer]

Can anyone offer any help or advice please?
I was 50 last month, I'm quite small ( dress size 6/8) and for many years I have worn a size 32D bra, The fit is ok but not perfect, ( doesn't quite fit at the arm pit and looks a little loose at the front depending on style but not overly so)

I've just used the Boob or Bust calculator and my bra size is 28FF???
does that sound right?

I need to order online as there is nowhere local to go into store and try on at the moment. I'm happy to order a range of sizes if I need to but I'm not sure where to start.

I haven't worn a 28" bra since I was 13!

I also suffer with back neck pain and I've been wondering it a better fitting bra would help?

Any advice or thoughts at all would be really helpful, Thank you.

Sounds right to me. I used to wear a 34D until I did boob or bust I now wear a 30F. I'm a size 10/12 and since changing my bras I'm so much more comfortable and my boobs look better in my clothes 😁

Yep sounds right to me too! I'm a size 12 and 30GG. You might find it hard to find a 28 back size but I know Bravissimo do some and are quite good about returns.

That sounds about right for a size 6-8. Order a few and try them on.

I did the boob or bust measurement - I'm a size 12-14, 5'9, usually a 34B (but not convinced they fit right - armpit fat, sometimes the cup is just wrong etc.), and it came out a 30F/30FF....... that doesn't seem right! I might give it a go and order something in that size though just because I'm curious.

Interested to see others getting interesting results too!

Sounds right. I’m a 12-14 and wear a 32 band so your original one was too big In the band

Thank you everyone for the advice, I ordered a few styles in a range of sizes yesterday, they arrived today and the 28FF is a perfect fit.

I'm shocked at the difference in fit, the band felt a little snug at first but after 30 mins it felt far more comfortable. I'm hoping that the back/neck issues will improve too.

It crazy that this way of measuring isn't used as standard in stores.

It’s very unlikely that you’re a B cup as a 12-14 unless you’re pretty much completely flat chested. I’m a 12-14 and tend to wear a 30G or 32FF depending on the style and brand.

Yes sounds right. Measuring has got much better over the years , and maybe you e changed a bit since you were last measures?

It's very common that when ladies are refitted, they realise their back is actually smaller but their bust is much bigger - the perfect result!

I'm a 12-14 and a 32-34 (depending on time of the month!)
