Uncommon bra sizes?!

Hi all,
I'm just wondering if anyone knows any shops in the UK to buy 30D bras from?
I've recently re-measured myself and went from a 34B to 30D and realised that most shops (H&M, La Senza, TKMaxx, Peacocks, etc) don't even do my size! I managed to get a bundle of bras from eBay, but my size is uncommon and expensive. The only shop I know that sells them is M&S, which is too expensive right now (I'm a student on a budget).
Any help would be brilliant! Thanks, Hanna

  • I know you say M&S is to expensive but you can get a pack of two for under £20 and you have to think of the effect on your back/posture if you wear an ill fitting bra.

    I wear M&S, and a 36D one at that. The M&S bras last for ever (almost), and wash very well, it would be money well spent here rather than buying rubbish.

  • Thanks exarmydreamer! I didn't realise they were good value. I thought they'd be at least £25 for just one bra.

    Dibuzz I feel your pain! Hopefully you'll find some in the January sale!

    I only ever get them in M&S but the Limited Collection ones aren't too expensive and come in nice colours! Oh and they are often on sale.

    Try this link:

    There's 41 bras size 30D - most under £20, and some around the £12 mark.

    This one is under £12 and is gorgeous!

    I've bought CurvyKate bras in the past and they are lovely.

  • Brilliant! Thanks ladies so much!:A
  • marks and spencer and bravissimo are pretty much the only place you will get a 30d from. i was a 30e and it was an absolute nightmare getting bra's, glad i'm not that size now since having my second son so its easier to find bra's. when i was looking in m&s for bra's i always used to see 30d in the sale, seen loads for £1 and they were really nice, they always tend to reduce their bra's quite alot so maybe worth a look. hope i have helped a bit.

    It's a shame though that M&S still don't do all of their bra styles in 30D, many a time I've seen ones I like but they start at a bigger back size.

    i no thats the only problem, they don't seem to cater for people of that size and your very limited to what you can have, but at least they do stock them, really had trouble when i was measured at that size but i knew to always go there or occassionally i found my size in debenhams.
  • Vickynleon ahh M&S sounds a definite place. If they had £1 bras I'd be over the moon! I may have a look in seven hams too, as my 30B friend gets her bras from there.
