Ugh, I can't freaking shop anywhere for bras. Noone has my size. So, if you're going to sell bras, please be sure to carry hard-to-find sizes, like 32C and 32D!! For some reason, many places only carry the band size 32 for A and B cup sizes. !!!!!!!!!! Can't shop ANYWHERE except online basically.

where online do you find those sizes? I am also a 32C/D and find it impossible to find,esp when nursing and bigger. Please let me know what websites you get from. Thanks.

DD and I have gone to a special bra fitter b/c we're small. Alterations are included and are free for the life of the bra.

There are several such stores in NYC.

You think that's tough? try shopping for a 32H Rolling Eyes

You can buy them in boutiques. Frum lingerie shops might have sizes like that but always call before wasting a trip and it is best to find a boutique that will fit you. If you are in New York bra smyth in manhattan carries a lot of sizes. Don't bother with department stores.
figleaves.com sells them for cheap but I wouldn't buy a bra without being fitted first (but then again I am huge so I really need to see how it fits)

Nope, sorry. I shop mostly Victoria's Secret and sometimes Macy's or Nordstrom. I'd never buy nursing unddergarments anyways but I'm sure some people do. Try selling on those Jewish clothing websites.
Good luck.

I'm a 32 C. Try Victoria's Secret, Macys or other department stores. Calvin Klein has 32 C as does Felina.

are you kidding me? I'm a 36DD and it's hard for me to find a NORMAL looking bra.

I tried there recently, I used to get their bras before I had kids, at that point they fit nicely. But now, I need something more full coverage- I am more a 32D and many places I goto try to get me to the next size up, meaning a 34 C but those also don't fit right. I guess I need a place that takes the time and does a good job of fitting.

CM, do you have a place in the city that you recommend?

Braun's Corset shop at 186 Penn St. in wb carries all sized bras and fits and alters as needed. Also makes regular bra into nursing bra. She is really excellent--many years of experience. 718 387 2696

Mommy24: sorry it took me a while to respond....!

Its figleaves.com and barenecessities.com...I think...If I remember correctly. I'm nursing now, so I haven't shopped there recently.But they have great non-nursing stuff in my size!

Lady godiva: why oh why can't I ever find victorias secret stuff in my size?? Which one do you go to? I've gone to VS cuz they have fitters and are decently priced, but nothing in 32C (my non-nursing size).

Do a search online. They have tons of 32C. The stores carry them too, but not all stores.

Do you know how hard it is to find 34F??? And I used to think it was hard when I was a 36D... Sad

DD is small and she was fitted in a store that does alterations. I highly recommend it!
