    Glad to hear you got a new bra and a UK brand, good for you. I know an FF cup sounds depressing but if it makes you feel better technically, I'm a 26G but size 26 bands are viturally non existent so I wear a 28 FF. On my small frame I don't consider it a huge size. I always thought I was small but wearing a properly fitting bra makes me look less grandmotherly. I'm not a even a grandmother! If Victoria Secrets and many department stores quit trying to convince women that they're all in the A-DD range and put them in good fitting bras you'd see more women wearing larger cup sizes.

    Bra fitting takes awhile. I thought my 30DD's were great, until the band stretched a little. It took me a long time to realize they weren't. Then I went to 28G's, miscalculated that one. Once I started learning about my shape I was able to settle into 1 brand and 2 styles that work for me. Did you measure your band tight or loose? If you measured loose you could also consider trying these sizes (UK,not US sizing), 34FF, a band/cup size down or 34G, same cup volume as your FF, but tighter band. Also, remember to "swoop and scoop" often.

    I don't have any other advice except to say good job on your progress.
