Bras...(venting)

[Catrin]

And then there's the whole US/UK cup size discrepancy to further confuse the issue. Since I need a 28-30 band, I exclusively wear UK brands and consequently think of my cup size in UK terms.

I wish the US manufacturers would get on board with bands smaller than 34.....

Yep, I've given up on American brands. Except for Freya - though I am unsure where they are from. I've also learned to pay much closer attention to the shoulder strap style - with a proper fitting band it makes much more of a difference than it once did.

I've always considered Freya a UK brand, although I'm not sure if they still are now that Wacoal has bought their parent company, Eveden Group.

Freya still goes by UK sizing but from what I understand most women are sizing down a band size because their bands are so stretchy.

Catrin, have you seen this site? http://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/ There's tons of information plus advice on whether or not the bra fits. Many women sell or swap bras here. I wish I had found this 2 yrs ago when I was trying to figure out my size.
