Clothes for curvy figures!

    Does anyone know of shops in Dublin that sell pretty underwear, but for girls that are a bit bigger than the norm up top?!

    I find that most places sell really nice stuff but that it only goes up to a D-cup or whatever - or if they do have any then it's a couple of over-the-shoulder-boulder-holders that only very elderly women would want to wear!!

    There is a shop called "Intimate Lingerie" on Tara Street which might be able to help you....

    just in case any girls were wondering, the sexiest undies on a girl are those little brief type things


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear

    I know Evans does pretty underwear and they do go up to larger cup sizes.

    This website specialises in gorgeous underwear for curvey women. Their stuff is fabulous and their returns policy is really good.

    Try victoriassecret.com - hot hot hot! Their stuff rawwwks :D I think they do bigger sizes there - but the sizes are different since tiz a US site - so whatever your cup size is over here would be one cup size less over there - so if you were a 34D, your size would be a 34C, 34E = 34D, etc.

    Thanks very much commuterised and tinkerbell - I'll definitely try those!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    also try Splendour. I buy quite a good of of lingerie from them. I'm a d-cup myself, and it's hard even to find nice d-cup bras, so I can sympathise with you. As far as I know Splendour do some larger sizes.

    Cool, thanks dudara!

    And thanks for sympathising too!! :D

    I'm a 32-34D which is a nightmare to shop for so I normall end up getting a 34C as a compromise (and a squeese). I did manage to get one of the Love Kylie bras, but most of her sizes are tiny...good old Marks and Spensers normally does the trick but Brown Thomas do stock some nice larger bras (very expensive though).

    My gf wears bikinis a lot of the time, as they tend to fit a lot better than bras, and are a lot more adjustable. It does tend to work better- I think.

    Thanks for the thread, I have the same problem, I have to spend so much on nice bra's, and I'm still developing too, which makes it even worse cause I have to buy new ones every four months or so. Damn genetics, etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,423 ✭✭✭tinkerbell


    Victoria's Secret is the only way to go!! :)

    Their stuff is fabulous, and it's not that expensive either - it's very classy & sexy stuff and for a good price, it's not trashy and cheap like Ann Summers, etc. Bra from VS costs about $38, then you've got delivery as well on top of that, but tiz still a lot better than the stuff you could get here.

    Plus, they've got a hoooooooooooj range of new stuff out for Christmas now, heh I could so be a VS sales person ;)

    Thanks for all the good suggestions girls!
    Nice to know I'm not the only one with this problem! :D
