    hey

    I'm presuming that by 'in town' you mean Dublin? I'm from outside Dublin but have used La Senza, which were good. Think there might be one in Roches Stores / New Debenhams in Henry StreeT?

    if you ever win the lotto...

    Rigby and Peller in London have a very good reputation.

    Arnotts are excellent. Clearys are excellent. M&S and Le Senza not so good if you're a bigger cup size.

    Debenhams/Roches are the best place I've had it done. Got measured there about a year ago and they were great, then lost some weight and went to M&S to get measured and she just measured my back and went and got one cup size down instead of mesuring my bust. :rolleyes:

    There's a team of girls in Arnotts measuring people. You might have to wait a few minutes but they are very good and will run out of the changing room and get bras for you to try on if you tell them what you are looking for too.

    brilliant, thanks for all your replies!

    i'm actually heading over to london on the 24th so i might try the rigby and peller crowd!

    M&S are rubbish. Try Peaches & Cream in the Hibernian Mall. Small shop but really good service and selection for those of us with big cups and small backs.

    Just to explain the reason behind not measuring your bust, M&S measure by sight after measuring the back because measuring the bust is not that accurate. Then they can go get a few different sizes based on sight.

    I thought M&S was awful. I'm a 36F and they measured me as a 40C. Go to one of the department stores and get measured properly. Arnotts is fantastic. As an aside, I think BTs stock Rigby and Peller, which are apparently the best of the bunch. I heard somewhere that they fit the Queen.

    If you are D cup or bigger and you are going to the UK, then you really want this crowd:

    www.bravissimo.co.uk

    They are fantastic and do clothes for bigger boobed women too. Couple of shops in London but branches in most large cities. I go about once a year.
