Bra

My 11yo DD is quite well developed for her age and I’m struggling to find an appropriate bra for her. I’m guessing her back is 28-30 inches and she is a C or D cup. All the 28-30” bras I’ve found are only available in an A cup. I’ve purchased 32c and 32d which are okay but far too big in the back. Has anyone managed to find something suitable for a skinny but larger busted girl?

have you checked Bravissimo? And if 32D cup is fine but back is big, she will need more than D in 28 back for sure.

Not cheaply. I got some from Amazon so it's worth putting her size into there and seeing if anything comes up.

I got dd (12 now) measured at bravissimo and bought a few from there and then ordered some more from next. She doesn’t like wired ones and measures a 28F but prefers the sister size of 30E for comfort, I even got a three pack of soft ones that she likes to wear to bed in that size from next. She has panache, Freya and bravissimo brands. ££££££ thankfully I have no boobs so can live in cheapo bralettes Grin

Thanks all. I am familiar with Bravissimo but was hoping for cheaper options while she is so young.

Boux avenue is often recommended on BoB Facebook group but idk if they do anything suitable for a young teenager!

I think the trouble is you can’t get well fitting decent sized bras (ie 28/30 back in bigger cup size) cheaply. I would say get fitted at bravissimo and then search online for some in that size cheaper.

M&S angel is worth a look.

Thanks all. Eventually tried some of my bras on her and she is clearly 28F/30E. Bravissimo here we come!
