Bras for small ladies?

11 replies

CrapDriver · 01/11/2009 15:18

Ahem....I need a bra that will fit me. I have a very small chest. I find that high street shops don't go down to 28 or 30. I've tried Ann Summers and La Senza but they don't stock them either. I can always find underwear aimed at women with bigger boobs (Bravissimo), is there anything similar for women with small boobs? I'm not even a small cup size but I can't find out what size I am for sure because I can't try them on anywhere. I've been measured in Ann Summers and the silly cow said I was a 34 B. I tried it on and it just hung of me. I felt crap so I left.

The only place I can find one small enough is in New Look in their 9-15 range which is humiliating. I don't want one with sodding High School Musical on it! I would like to look attractive for DP. I would like to look a bit sexy occasionly.

Please help.

This company goes down to 28AAA, and some nice things.

Good luck!

Have you tried figleaves.com ? You can search on size.

next go down to an A cup and without padding as well - looked everywhere before finding them! not sure what rib size they go down to though am pretty sure it is at least 32. sorry can't be more help. good luck

Marks and Spencers start at a 30 inch and John Lewis women start at 28 ??inch., def, 30 inch. Have a look at their websites.

Measure under your boobs round your rib cage for your back size.

do not discard Barvissimo - they will measure you wahetevr size you are even if they dont; stock anythign that'll fit.

In fact if you';re small round the ribs rather than in the cup Bravissimo is a v good idea as you may turn out to be (eg) a 28C

When I finished feeding dd I was a 28DD for a while and Bravissimo were amazing

(NB I got some fab plain white 28Cs from the Tesco teenage section too as I started to deflate)

Try Princess Tam Tam.

Sexy, stylish and ADULT soft cup bras as well as push up.

Thankyou I will look at those sites and DP said he will take me to Marks and Spencer sometime this week.

I have the same problem and my solution - Huit bras - fantastic - they have a place to insert gel thingys to increase cleavage (chicken breast type things in). They are great and fantastic fit.

MrsBadger · 01/11/2009 19:06

honestly do not go to M&S

if you are less than a 30 they will fib and say you are a 30 just so you buy something

I honestly reccomend bravissimo, or John lewis if you don;t have one locally
