I went to Purple Orchid recently for first time and I was amazed. It's so nice and private there and they really fit well. She kept bringing in more and more until we found the perfect one. I was really impressed.

Please remember fitting a bra is not the issue - the bra has to go with the type of clothing you're going to wear with it if you're wearing soft or stiffer clothing you must make sure the which style bra looks best that's what means a good fitting. You don't need a professional to see what size you need you have to look the best you can

I think Tafi does the most exact fit. I've gone other places and they were happy with almost good - but not perfect.
But I don't like Tafi's setup and dressing rooms. I feel very exposed. So I try other places but haven't found as exact of a fit.

Not OP, but can you explain what you mean? I'm a bit clueless with these things...

There are minimizers padded bras depending how you look best. Fitting a bra doesn't mean getting the right size it means getting the right bra that looks best with what you wear

I am a complicated fit, and really like Hosiery Plus on James. The have a curtain in the back of the store that opens to the lingerie dept. They do on-site alterations and are perfectionists when it comes to fit.

To update - hosiery plus closed that branch of lingerie. Tafi has a really nice store now.

Tafi does an amazing fit but I don’t have patience for lines.

I tried trousseau recently and was very happy.
I’ve also heard great things about mySelf.

But I’m not sure the lingerie stores are open yet for business. Sad. Can’t really claim religious exemption like the clothing stores. Or maybe they are...

I recently discovered the flexible sizing on some brands e.g. Bali Smart Sizes and Warner Easy Does it (e.g. there's S, M, L, XL which each cover several sizes).
Many of them have a removable cup liner for smoothing which I like very much.

The Lingerie Shoppe carries Bravado 1401 (which is a nursing style but works very well if you need good support) and you can order online. However I tried calling & texting to see if they are doing alterations (although I can do it myself if I ever get around to changing the thread on the machine....) & wasn't able to get a reply.

You can click on a size chart & probably find your range. I have a friend in the business who recommended the Bravado & was able to guide me on size. I probably would have done a large size but I'm very happy with what I got.

I did also try a Hanes Comfort Strap but it did not have the depth of cup I need. The others were great though (although some did not have an adjustable strap so I had to shorten myself with sewing machine).
