Decent plunge bra in H cup?

Hi ladies,
Hoping someone can give me tips for finding a great plunge bra for a larger bust. I'm a 28H, so it can be difficult to find a good bra...most of the ones I've tried are too flimsy/not supportive enough and I end up 'falling out'! A lot of the bra's I've seen start at a 30 back so are no good. I read freya deco moulding plunge bra was amazing but it only goes up to a GG cup :(
Looking for: good support,( if don't have a really supportive bra I get really bad backache) good shape, but not too 'push up ish' (had one that ended up with my boobs resting under my chin, not a good look:P)
Any ideas?

    It may be worth trying a 30GG in this one. I have found when I bought this (and so did a work colleague) we had to go up a back size and down a cup size, it is very supporting and I love it.

    If you have a Bravissimo near you pop in, they are really good with big b00bs :rotfl:

    Hope that helps.

    I second bravissimo.Also,like the other poster,when it comes to a plunge bra I often go up a back size (with it fastened on tightest back fastener) and down a cup size.You can usually get away with it if it's a good bra

  • Bravissimo are good, I've also found Debenhams Gorgeous range to be good, although I'm slightly bigger around and smaller in cup. Worth trying to see if they do your size.

  • Sorry to restate the obvious but Bravissimo for a fitting definitely.
  • Another vote for Bravissimo here!
    For a plunge bras try Panache Tango Plunge, I'm a 36H and I've found these the most supportive.

    Thanks, I've been put off buying bra's online as I didn't think I'd be able to return bra's but if they let you that'd be so much easier than trekking to the shops, only to find there's like 3 bra's in your size in the whole shop...will def give the website a go! thanks again:)

    I love the tango balcony bra's and practically live in them...didn't know they did a plunge but will have a look for them, thanks!:)
  • Freya Retro plunge bras are great. They are the basic design but offer good support.

    As everyone else has said, get measured at Bravisimo & they will also suggest other suitable bras & sizes.
