Reading the other thread this sprang to mind. Is it just me that finds no consistency between different shops in their bra sizing? An M&S 38C fits me beautifully, head into La Senza and I've got no hope, the D is still too small.

I think that's because they are all guidelines, Some shops I go in, I wonder whether i should actually bother wearing a bra at all, 34A's are like b/c's lol
Even in the same shops, different styles tend to be different sizes.
La Senza's sizes, in particular, are tiny on the cup and huge round the back. Still, if I wear a totally different size, they fit well :thumb:
Ho hum, I suppose variety is the spice of life.
I shop at La Senza, I like it there. But I got my sports bra off Brastop.com
I also ceriso, but they've stopped doing the racer back hooks
I remember reading an interview with her where she claimed to be a 30D.
Anyone familiar with the size of a 30D bra will know what I mean when I pull this face:
:eek2:
... On the majority of figleaves bras, I would fit quite nicely into a 32DD
.. In wonderbras I am a 34DD (although the back is a bit loose, but a 32 is too tight)
.... In ASDA, I am a 34 D (same as above though)
... yet according to most internet websites I am a 38A. I am thinking they're wrong.
I'm a 34E and like, if, say, I go into New Look, a 34E is too small yet if I go into La Senza, its a perfect fit.
Same with lots of other places really. I stick to La Senza cuz I know what sizes fit me in there.
am i the only one who doesn't like the fact my bras are twice the price and not half as nice as smaller ones....
No it annoys me too.
All the bras i see and like don't go up to a DD.
LOL
I have the same problem, I range from a 32b to a 36b..... its annoying as hell!
New Look sucks. Officially. Every bra I have got from there is ridiculously too small or irritates my skin.
La Senza. I like their basic lacey stuff, £15 (roughly) and they're the best bras I've ever worn. Nice and colourful too.
You couldn't stop picking on people if you tried, be quiet and stop gawping at all the girls talking about bra sizes. :razz:
I'm only gawping at yours .
