Store story

Last week I went to the stores in my town to see if there perhaps were some bras now in smaller back and larger cup sizes (I noticed that over the years they at least started shifting from a-c, to a-d and a-e for backsize 70, which I wore at the time). In fact I did find some brands that go up to F cups now, but others apparently chose to quit making cup sizes larger than F. Back size 70 still was the smallest they had (which leaves me a bit puzzled, because I could swear I had seen a 65F in that same store before). So the net result was.... not entirely satisfying :P.

This was not the primary reason for writing this down though. The reason why I felt like sharing this experience is because this time I was not stared at in disbelief when I requested my size, and that the people in the stores were actually trying to help me find the right bra :O That is nice for a change! :D Before, almost no-one around me was capable of comprehending the mere existence of sizes like 60GG. Well, perhaps only if I had looked like a porn star.

  • Oh, I once ran into a 65D in the Hunkemoller. One. Once. It looked lost.

  • Ahw.. the poor thing!
    But does it mean they actually did try to get a broader range? I do wonder. Sometimes I am so paranoid that I'm thinking they don't want us to wear the right sizes because it's more trouble for the companies.
