    I'm a bit confused. She's between 33.5 and 34 inches underneath and 38 across the fullest part. According to M&S here that makes her 38D which makes sense because she does have big uns :o

    Spud, haven't read the rest of the thread yet so someone may have already suggested this but what about sewing some sequins/ribbon onto one strap of a bra she already owns, and just have it on show? Has she got any bras where the cup wont poke out above the level of the top (on the drop side)?

    I have a 36D strapless bra I can bring for her to try (in fact I have a couple, although one is 'worn but presentable' rather than nice), but if it doesn't fit, it's a bit late to find something else.

    See....this is something that has never been a problem to me....having littl'uns CAN be a good thing.

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    I think I would just take her to matalan or somewhere and get her to try loads on and see which is the best fit. To be honest it all depends on the style and make of the bra as to your size anyway!

    I might have a 38 C...in fact I don't have a strapless that fits me now, think I was a 32 C when I went last time to be measured

    This all relies on me getting another job, spending some redundancy money and putting the rest in the bank. All my balls need to line up (if you'll pardon the expression!)

    If it works it will be good.

    Ooh, forgot to put getting my eyes done on my list. And laser hair removal too. Then maybe something for all the nasty scars I've ended up with from ingrowing hairs. I've pretty much given up on never having spots so there's not much point having anything done on that front.

    Thanks girls. I think her 36C strapless looks fine, but it's whether she'd be comfortable wearing it on the night. I just asked her if she'd consider wearing a different top, but she said no. Maybe we'll put it on again in a bit and decide what to do.

    There's a whopping diference between a 38A and a 38D though. It's all a bit confusing.

  • by the end of the year I want to be debt free and have 2000 pounds in savings.

    and have a fish pond.

    and a nice garden to have sat in all summer.
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Spud, I've got a white strapless 38DD bra if that's any good? I'll have a dig round to see if I've got any others that are the right size. It's a cheapie George one, and a bit on the small side I think.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
