Rant about being small

I felt so insulted when the bra fitter told me to try push up bras because my boobs were really small and apparently wide set.
So far my experience with bra fitters has been terrible. They'll try to persuade me to wear a 32B even when im spilling out. They'll just try to loosen the straps and put me on the loosest hook. I wear a 26/28 band.
Most of them ive encountered are just trying to sell me the bra but not care about the fit. Furthermore, from where I'm from 32 is typically the smallest band. And most brands only have A or B cups. C and D only for larger bands.
There's been so many movements related to plus size women etc. But.. nobody cares about the tiny girls that can't find tiny bras that fit. Clothes even. I've spent most of my teens searching for clothing stores that have clothes in size UK 4 and below.

  • I can definitely relate to this. This is why I want to someday create my own shop and make my own clothes and lingerie that will be available in every possible size. UK 4 is extremely rare to find where I am, even 6 is rare, most shops start at 8 if not 10 and bra shops start at 32 for the adult sections, 30 in rarer cases. I haven't ever been for a professional bra fitting because I feel they'll just be like "come back once you've got something to measure" or ask where my mum is or just stick me in a teens 28AA.

  • Yes, bra fitters tend to be terrible. Its so hard to find a good one.
