Where do you buy your underwear?

Rigby & Peller if you can afford it. any of my friends who have a 'difficult' fit swear by them. I only bought one there - for my DDiL to go under the wedding dress I was making for her. They made it all great fun, and offered her the Bridget Jones knickers which I bought for her, amid gales of laughter. She then said she couldn't let my son see her in those on their wedding night. So I then bought her a very pretty thong and said slip up to your room when all the ceremonial/dinner bit is done and everyone's had a bit to drink and change into that. Cost me a fortune but worth it! R&P lightheartedly offered me a job as I guessed HMs bra size! They do it all by looking at the client, not by measuring.

I used to get all my bras at Dickins and Jones and weep for the demise of this store.

M&S always for knickers, except the ones that match my bras. I have found one that suits me perfectly in French supermarkets. I now have many in every colour possible. And they are very inexpensive, and often on offer. What a relief!

I used to buy bras at ASDA [where I could try them on] but I've had a mastectomy following breast cancer and cannot find anything I like for any reasonable price.

I'd love to know if anyone has found a good source of post-op bras.

"Who" not "you".

I agree with those you advised being measured for correct bra size. If you are on the generous side, I would recommend Bravissimo. You might be surprised - I walked in as a 38B/C and left as a 34F, such a good fit and so comfortable. Pants I buy wherever I happen to be.

oops that was 36 not 26

I only like all cotton and non-wired bras and non-padded too. I have very little bosom but am quite far round to the back so 26 A or B or 38A and they do very cheap and pretty cotton ones in Asda, with pants to mix and match.

Bras buy at Bravissimo- have a fitting ,the girls ,IMO ,are very professional , I found I had been wearing the wrong size for years. They have infinite patience,best to make an appointment or go when shops are not busy, lots of branches over U K

Sloggi of course.

Slogging support pants from Debenhams and a yearly ( or less) visit to Rigby and Peller for a bra. Expensive, but even never had such well fitting bras and don't make costly mistakes any more so cost effective in the long run.

I like Sloggi knickers and get them online wherever they are cheapest. I have a selection of T-shirt bras I got from Avon but I did go to John Lewis for a fitting and have one pricier one from there. Actually the particular bra was cheaper at Debenhams so I told JL and got their 'never knowingly undersold' refund!

I have bought bras from BHS, but mostly I buy underwear from Mail Order
Catalogues. You can try them on at home, and if not o.k can return them before a fortnight is up. They have a page that tells you how to measure yourself too. I also have stopped wearing underwired bras. Sometimes the new ones feel a bit tight, but are o.k after the first wash.

I'm with you Treecycler I only wear Ahhh Bra's at home, and in fact I double them up for going out and get reasonable support and outline. They are the comfiest things ever with the shaping being sewed in and no other seams or fastenings.

Im quite cross when an occasion requires a 'proper' bra as they are so uncomfortable in comparison.

I've given up bras at home. Only every wear those camisole support things and supportive Lycra M&S camisoles. Pants, usually the liveliest coloured hi legs from M&S! What an odd conversation.... Anyway I would definitely say giving up the bras especially under wired has been a revelation. I'm so much more comfy, and don't have that horrible cut in half feeling at the end of the day. I do wear Lycra Hanes(US make) bras which are comfier than most. But I hate under wired bras. They dig in, especially if you are short waisted like me.

Most of mine come from M&S, I usually buy in the sales. I've got some knickers from Sainsbury's but when I bought a bra there I found I had to buy a size larger than M&S.

Fig leaves?? How Adam & Eve !!!
Get mine from Matalan or Tesco!

Knickers are comfy full briefs from M & S Outlet or Sloggies type.

I'm comparatively narrow of back/big of boob 36G/GG and get fitted at Bravisimmo. M & S bra fitters couldn't find a bra to fit me properly....proper shaped cups without underarm spillage, straps that would.stay on shoulders etc.

I buy mine when I'm on holiday in the states mostly . More choice, mostly cheaper and available in more stores .

Ebay or Amazon for knickers - Playtex which are like Sloggies but without that annoying seam down the back. Fig Leaves on line or M&S for bras.

I don't think so charleygirl I was measured at M&S and used that as a guide. TKMaxx sell lots of brands so you need to try on. They have a no quibble returns policy.

Buy my pants from M&S and bras from Triumph or Figleaves - depending on their offers ... ??

I buy most of my knickers from Sainsburys and M&S as I like their no VPL ones.

Pittcity can one be measured at TKMaxx for a bra?

M and S midi knickers. Bras are a nightmare as I can never get them to fit. I think we've discussed this on another thread but I've been measured several times for bras and they still cut me in half by the end of the day. DH thinks I'm mad and says don't wear one.
