    Anyone know where you can pick up some nice bra's for the bigger chest, not too expensive and not to grannyish? I've been looking for years...

    I was actually looking for that range before and they didn't stock it, they must have just brought it in...do you happen to know what size they go up to?

    Hey there, It is really difficult to get a sexy bra for big bradleys but I used to get mine in M&S but lately the styles aren't that nice.
    Try Triumph in Arnotts they have nice cuts.

    The lingerie place in BT's is good but very expensive but worth the investment in the long run, mefinks.

    Thanks DeeDee, Think I might take a trip into BT's with the boyfriend so, might get some early xmas presents...Yes I agree defo worth the money if you get something sexy that fits well.

    I would generally look in BT's, Clerys and the department store on Talbot st whose name I forget. M&S have recently introduced a new larger size bra range going up to a G cup. It can be worth taking a trawl through TK Maxx, as they will often get in a whole lot of outsized bras. I'm a 32FF/G and I have gotten some of my nicest, cheapest bras there. I got a Rigby Peller, usual retail price around €100 for €12 there last year.

    And if you are looking for something special you will find a great range on www.bravissimo.com. They also have a number of shops in the UK if you are visiting.

    It's worth having a look around M&S if you want something that's pretty and supportive without breaking the bank. Otherwise Agent Provocateur in BT is the way to go (although it's a bit scary spending so much money on one bra there!). They're the prettiest ones you'll find, plus they're supportive.

    my sister has a large chest, and she buys La Senza underwear off the net, as its much cheaper than in the shop. Especially if you buy on eBay.

    Knickerbox does up to a 40 on the back and a G cup. They often have pretty styles.

    Victoria's Secret & Bravissimo (both available online) !

    Really sorry, don't take this the wrong way, but is it possible to have a body with a chest that size? I'm 40DD and am mostly boob, I just have this really weird image of an incredibly top heavy girl in mind, sorry.

    It's impossible to get bras in the Wexford/Waterford area, Dunnes and old lady shops are the best I can get and even at that it's not great.
    M&S didn't have much of a range last time I went looking.

    Well of course it's possible, they wouldn't make bra's that size if I was the only one.:D

    I'm actually very in proportion. I measure 41(chest)-28(waist)-41(hips). (I like to think I look like a very small (I'm only 5'1) superheroine, on my very vain days at least.;)) I've always been very careful to make sure I'm wearing the proper size bra, it is important for all woman to do this but especially if you have a large chest as you don't want your chest and back to have to take all the weight.

    The number relates to the circumference of the back and rib-cage. The letter /cup size is the size of the breast and it is in proportion to the rib cage.

    The M&S range is very new, if it isn't in your local shop you should ask if they will be getting them in.

    I don't have a local shop, I'm from wexford hence my difficulty!

    aah, thank you, I always thought the number took your actual chest into account too! Okay that makes much more sense!

    Sorry again!
