    i am a g cup and i wear marks and find them very comfy and supportive

    M&S omit some sizes so beware of this if buying bras elsewhere (you'll probably be an FF elsewhere). This is what I meant by them setting their own sizing standards though, they do match the other branded bras sold in the UK (such as Fantasie, Freya or Panache), they make them only to be sold in M&S. Only a lot of bigger breasted women do not realise this and so end up wearing the wrong size when they switch brands.

    If M&S are after the big girl market they need to go larger than G and make them available on smaller bras, ifswim.

    Yes they do but they are not 'true' sizings. They are M&S G+ Sizes. Ladies sized to wear other brands in FF+ sizings will not be able to fit into M&S bras because their sizes do not run in line with the other UK Brands which is why people buy them and cram themselves into them.

    A few years back I tried on every single bra M&S had to offer - they sent me to Debenhams as they told me they fitted but I would say 'but I am bulging out of the bottom' or 'the cup is too small', she said she had nothing 'that suited me'. They do not make bras suited to larger sizes and some of the 'fitters' do not have a clue - especially if you are larger than the largest size they sell.

    25% off bras is now working on line (see website for code). It worked with the 15% off & free delivery codes (see discount vouchers board), so am very happy.
