Miss Mary of Sweden sizing

I’ve finally accepted that high street bras are never going to work for me. I’m 34G/GG and have had a horrible summer of itchy, sweaty boobs squished together, skin tags, irritated moles and general grumpiness!

I’m going to bite the bullet and order from the site but I can’t find my tape measure 😁. If you’ve bought from them, do you find the sizing consistent with other brands?

No idea about Ms Mary but they were the butt of jokes when we were younger. The Triumph non underwired bras are good and very supportive. They do a wide range of sizes.

Ms Mary sizing is completely different to anything im used to. A couple of years ago I really tried to like them, and I do, but could never get the sizing right- I can’t remember exactly what was wrong. I followed the instructions on their website, and it was not right on me - too big on the band. I ordered through Next so I could return easily.

Was recommended this brand by a breast surgeon but struggled to find my size and it varied by design

Thanks all, that’s a bit disappointing.
Triumph are even more expensive here than MM.

And Triumph were the butt of jokes where I grew up. I’m sure somewhere the younguns are laughing at Victoria’s Secret but my VS non-wired bras are so comfy I just don’t care. 😂 OP when my tits were massive I shopped at Freya(sp?) not sure if they are still going. Also the local independent underwear/lingerie shop in the nearest big town went up to a J cup. Worth looking around.

I can’t help with that brand but I am the same size and had this exact issue so went to an independent bra shop for fitting earlier this year. She recommended the Elomi brand and they fit so well. You can usually pick them up on eBay half price from the outlet stores too. Could you maybe find a local independent shop for advice?

I also recommend if you can find an independent expert fitter - I did and was amazed. I also came away with two Elomi which feel perfect. The size I am to what I thought I was is incredibly different!

I bought MM last year but now realise I was in the wrong size. I will stick to my independent because I can no longer be bothered with all the measuring, ordering, trying on, sending back, keeping then realise not right after all, rinse and repeat …. And I will buy what I know is right on eBay or Vinted for the old purse strings
