think I'll have to go to newcastle - any excuse to have a shop and visit the archive all in 1 day!!

the best place to go is Bravissimo - they do mail order too - I have their latest brochure [yesterday] - if you tell me which is your nearest town I'll check and see if there is one near you

I think Ann goes here but it's worth a look anyway

lol Carol, you're small compared to Ann & I!

Someone told me "Sadie the Bra Lady" is good, I hate having big boobs-gets me down sometimes, wish I could afford to get em done!!!lol Carol xx

Try & stick with the underwired ones .

Have you measured yourself?

Just get a different fitter

M&S do a terrific range of undies if you're a smaller lady but for us "bigger" girls I'd recommend you go else where

The under bit slips down and digs in when I'm sitting as well, most uncomfortable, feel like going back to me boring ones but the underwired are soo pretty and feminine next to them!!

there defo the wrong size babes
a bra should fit snug so u dont ven realise u got it on if u no what i mean sounds like the cup size is to big or the back size is to small

I was fitted for the first time ever ( at age 40 ) at M&S a couple of months ago - she didn't measure I just had to try some on & she went on looks

i'll do that - isn't it daft, 48 and a good bit woman and still needing advice on brassiers!!! I feel foolish!!!

I have had them for years too

I would take them back & get another fitter. If they dig in they are not fitting properly :-(

I can see why she recommended underwired but I reckon if the wires are sticking in then she gave you the wrong bra - I'd go back if I were you and tell her the problem

I got them at M&S Ann and the lass was adament that they were ok!!! i'm a DD and she reccomende underwires

I've worn underwired bras for years - have to - I'm a 32JJ. Sounds to me as if you haven't got the right size on - have you had them professionally fitted - they have bra fitters in all the big department stores, M & S included. Mine are extremely comfortable and never dig in

i'm not used to wearing underwired bras and i just got 2. The only problem is they seem to stick out and dig into my arm, has anyone had the same problem and what do you do about it without taking the underwires out and spoiling the bra?
