Sometimes, too, the same bra style in different colours comes up different - especially black, for some reason: it's to do with the dyeing process apparently.

I'm more a fan of the fit than the tape measure - though it's very disconcerting when you go into a shop and someone looks you over and knows your size instantly!  I was so pleased when Bravissimo expanded from Ealing - their fitters are amazing.  It makes sucha  big difference wearing the right size - I see women in town with their boobs round their waists and want to yell at them to go smaller in the band and bigger in the cup :-D!  You can lose weight instantly just by wearing the right size  - and perkiness is not to be sneezed at: enjoy the uplift, saasher!
