Found a small lingerie shop in my town!
It doesn't have the greatest selection,but at least the lady there was very nice and they had some bras up to an H cup....it's a start for my little town!lol.Tried on a few bras in sister sizes,and found one I sort of liked.Had to try it in a 40F as that was the closest they had.Band was of course too big and cup was a bit too small,though not terribly cause of it being stretchy.The lace top worked pretty well on me,though it sort of gave a pointy shape.I plan on going back and considering it for sometime..they would order the correct size or I can just order it myself.It's way far down on my bra list,but it's on it as it's rather nice.Gives a good lift without feeling like your boobs are being lifted unnaturally.lol.

Also tried on a variety of other sizes..one a 40DD she had just pulled out for me to get an idea of how that style worked for me.Oh man...squished boobs,band floating,etc,it was awful.Now I see what many people go through with a badly fitted bra...it drive me nuts wearing it for 30 seconds,can't imagine it for months or years!Even though I was wearing the wrong sizes before,the band still sort of fit and the cups were stretchy cotton,so it wasn't as obvious besides some discomfort,not much support and a headache and backache from that.

You are fortunate. The nearest WALMART is 85 miles away from my little town! I have to go 145 miles for a Dillards or Penney's and anything fancier is 180 miles away! To put a fine point on it, my favorite bras are Elomi's and their nearest retailer is almost exactly 500 miles away. Don't think I would ever attempt a boutique, but it would be nice to have department stores near. Thank goodness for the internet! It sure is hit and miss, though. I have a drawerful of expensive misses. Lucky you! And the Rosa Faia Scarlet is a VERY pretty bra.
Oh my.For the bras I want to try on,though,it's about the same distance as you are facing.Even the shops in the mall carry very little over a DD and I didn't find anything that would work.
I was very surprised to find this boutique.They plan on getting some Elomi's in,and I don't think I'll like them much but want to try them anyways.
Now if I could just travel to Poland..haha.
It is a hit and miss and very expensive.
