GG cup size - where do you buy your bras?

I used to get on with the Alana bra from Bravissimo but lately I'm finding it so uncomfortable so I'm on the lookout for something else. I like a good bit of uplifting and shaping, sturdy rather than (necessarily) pretty and lacy. Happy to shell out for some good engineering. Where do you buy yours?

Brastop

Tango Panache bra
But go back to Bravissimo and try on everything that you like the look of. They have the loveliest people in their shops and the customer service is fantastic. It’s the first store I visit every time I’m in London or New York

Curvy Kate have some lovely styles.

Bravissimo - Alana for standard daily and then other styles for ‘special’!

I’m an H cup and recommend Brastop.

I'm HH and shop at brastop & bravissimo. I find Fantasie are the best for me and they have really good side support. If your bra is really uncomfortable it's worth getting re measured.

Thanks people. Had a quick look at Brastop, very reasonable prices 👍

Bravissimo have probably 100 styles from all manufacturers. I tend to try on there but look out for bargains in the same style online too.
The Fantasie Fusion is a good everyday bra.

I'm also a 30GG but can't wear anything that has more than a 2 hook fastening. I've been wearing Cleo bras for several years but lately I've been disappointed with the materials they're using. Do the Curvy Kate range have bras with the 2 hook fastening? I'm really struggling to find comfortable bras 🙁.

I'm occasionally a GG as well and in most cases, buy my bras from ebay - several discount shops there selling Freya, Fantasie, Panache and similar.
Differing from previous poster, I love longline bras, the ones with 5+ hooks in the back - much better support and less backfat as well.
