    Hiya,
    Going to be in Dublin Over the weekend and was hoping to pop in somewhere to get measured just to check Im wearing the right stuff. So I may or may not buy an actual bra but wouldnt mind either at the same time. Went up to a place called intimate last year for sisters wedding and found her great! But I know shes appointment only so say shes booked up short notice and all.

    Peaches and Cream are pretty good. Worth giving Arnotts a try too, Debenhams can be very hit and miss depending on who you get (I've had great help from the staff in Tallaght, but bad experiences in Henry Street).

    Avoid M&S like the plague for bra fitting tbh - their fitting service is poor and the construction in their bras doesn't hold up well above around an E cup.

    Tbh - if you *really* want a good bra fit, hop on a bus to Belfast and go to Bravissimo.

    I'd second Peaches & Cream - best fitting bras I own all came from there

    Thanks, Does peaches and cream try to push you into buying? And would you be able to get a bra around €30-40?

    Might not suit you OP but there is a great shop in Kilkenny on kierans st. Not pushy at all and know their stuff.

    I have found Arnotts good, and would recommend. I agree about steering clear of M&S. My experience there was poor, to say the least, despite their claims to have expert fitters etc.

    I've had mixed experiences with M&S - I find the quality of the bras quite good, and they tend to last for ages without losing shape. However as for the fitting - it just depends who you happen to get on the day. I don't think they're very well trained, so some are just better at it than others.

    I don't like M&S at all, the underwear or the fitting. I had a poor experience last time with Arnotts. Best of all has been Brown Thomas. Their fitting is miles better and they explained why I would be a certain size in one type vs a different size in another. I didn't like Peaches and Cream on the one occasion they let me into their shop, the assistant was very snotty and nearly gave out to me for asking if I could be fitted without an appointment.
