Only places I can think of are Bravissimo and SimplyYours...Sometimes SimplyYours bras are strange fitting, but you can always return them for a different size.Started comping 19/8/2011
Hoping for some nice wins :j
Won: Music Download, bag of sweetsx2, Maybelline goody bag
Freebies: Garnier BB0 -
Brastop.com are a good place to go if you know your size in particular brands (I seem to vary depending on the brand!)0

I find Asda pretty good for larger sizes.0

I'd go to somewhere like Bravissimo for a fitting if nothing else. They specialise in a larger bust.
If you can't afford their bras you will at least have an idea of how it should fit and look.
It's a real pain that all the different manufacturers sizings seem to come up so differently, it does make buying online a pain unless you know a brand really well.0 -
Also would recommend asda! I am a recent convert and got a couple of really pretty bras recently for £6 each!! The fit is good too!Just keep passing the open windows.0

Actually, while Bravissimo are good for large cup sizes, they don't cater for larger back sizes. They only seem to go up to around 40" back size, although you may find, being measured properly there, your size is actually completely different to what you think at the moment and could well be smaller round the back and larger in the cup. Worth going for a fitting, they are very good.0

If you are looking for good quality bras, cheaper than in the shops try Claire at Lingerie Heaven. She has a huge selection in loads of sizes and her measuring guide is fantastic. I went down 2 back sizes and up 3 cup sizes when I first got in touch with her.If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you always got!0

Bravissmo have prettier bras than "normal" size ones in my opinion. Now Ive lost a lot of weight I dont need the larger sizes and Ive been disappointed at the styles of C cups. Oh just looked at Bravissimos autumn collection - absolutely gorgeous. I wish they did C cups

I've found it worth searching the bra section in TKMaxx - (if you're not too fussy on the colour) you can get some amazing bras. Always a really odd range of sizes though and usually missing B and C cups. I'm a 36DD and have been lucky enough to find a few underwired, pretty styles in Peacocks that are cheap and fit well.0

get yourself measured for free and try on some brands. Then buy cheaper from eBay!0
