Ridiculous bra question.

I know you're all going to laugh, but does anyone else have a boob size discrepancy? Like, not just the usual not exactly the same, but actually quite different? If so, when buying bras, which size of boob do you cater to?
Mine are not noticeably different to other people (until I point it out), but in terms of cup sizes, one is about 1-2 sizes bigger than the other, and it's a pain in the arse.
I was considering going to get measured, and asking them, but these days they always tell you some ridiculous low back size and high cup size (conspiracy to make you buy expensive bras?) and I just feared them telling me i was a 22HH or something equally laughable, and then directing me to the 22HH range, starting at £40. You know the deal.
Anyway, is it better to buy for the bigger one, and have one baggy side, buy for the smaller and have one busting out, or buy in between, and have neither side fit properly?
:shocking:

But I dont have that problem, just if you buy for the smaller one you'll end up with 'Britney Boobs'
Would you care to explain ? Being neither a fan of said Britney or a breast man
Buy just one chicken fillet?
I normally adjust the straps to make it fit better
Doesn't that make one high and one low? Unless I am doing it too much?
I wouldn't mind, but I think my bigger boob is GROWING :nervous:
It is to me.
I only do it slightly.
We are our own worst critics when it comes to our body. As you said, it is not noticeable to others unless you point it out.
How about a bra with removable padding? Leave the padding in on the smaller side and take it out on the other.
I've tried that before, but the small one is still quite a bit too small. Tssk.
Might try the chicken fillet trick, for shits and giggles.
I have a wonderbra which has 2 chicken fillets in both sides (one smaller than the other), perhaps you could hunt one of those out and take both out on one side if its alot different.
yeah, that is what I was trying to say
You're either a genius, or you're batshit insane. I'll let you know which.
Do Primada still do those £3 bras?
are you thinking of constructing a £6 primark superbra?
:yes:
Cut and shut lingerie for the win!
Ah right. Thank you.
Bras that cheap!!! :shocking: Can I send you some money and you buy me some
10 bras for the price of one. Woot.
Pfff.
