I've been happy with goddess and elomi brand bras. I'd suggest trying them on before buying, if you can, as I think their sizing is UK based rather than US.

That could be difficult, as I could only buy them online, but thanks for the suggestion!

Do you have any high end department stores near you? Like Nordstrom or Saks? Saks carries lots of amazing brands and Nordstrom definitely carries Elomi. I swear my the Elomi Cleo bandless bra. They are not as expensive as all of those other crazy brands, but in my opinion, just as beautiful AND supportive. They are on more and more websites now, so surely you could find one to ship to you. I like herroom.com but I'm in the US.

No, those are both American stores. I can try next time I'm in their fine country, but not from here. Thanks, though!

I would recommend Bravissimo.com. They are UK based but they will ship to the states. Check their size/fit guide if you decide to go with them to make sure that you get the correct size, I measure wildly differently there than I do anywhere else, the UK don't seem to have standardised sizing yet!!

Ok, thanks! I'll check them out!

In theory we have standardised sizing but in practise you tend to end up finding a brand or store which you know works well for you because there is variation.

Another recommendation is to check out M&S online. (Marks and spencer) they do have larger bras online and they may ship further.

Yeah, that's what I mean - I find them kind of crappy, frankly. They also don't ship to Canada - they say they do in one place, but in actuality, they don't. You put in your whole order, and then at the very last page they'll say that they can't ship to your geographical region. I live in the second biggest city in Canada, so... wtf. It's not like I live in the sticks somewhere... and it's about an hour's drive to the border. Sigh. Thanks for the other link! I'll check them out and see what their shipping is like! :)

Sorry, but Lane Bryant *do* ship to Canada. You have to go right down the bottom of the main page and go to International Shipping. Then you can change country.

Also, Cacique bras are cheap, but I am a 40H and have tried every single bra that makes that size. Elomi, Panache, Curvy Kate.. yada yada you name it, and out of everything except the Panache Porcelain Moulded T-Shirt bra, Cacique are the most comfortable hands down.

Yes, but did you actually try to buy something? The website says that it ships to Canada, but when you actually attempt to make a purchase, it lets you go allll the way to the very final step, where it THEN tells you that it doesn't ship to your geographical region. I have only ever lived in big cities in Canada, and the LB website has never been willing to ship to any of them, despite its claims. It's rather like their in-store and online claim that non-Americans can apply for their card. Which is well and dandy until you get to the field that requires a zip code. We don't do zip codes here, and that one little thing makes the entire process impossible. There have been letters and calls to corporate head offices, believe you me. I'm not new to this game. It's an impossible website and a ridiculous company. I still shop there - but clearly only when I'm in the country, which is about five or six times per year. Sigh.

I was coming to say I love Serenada bras, but I checked and they don't go up to your cup size.

Figleaves.com does seem to have some (pretty!) bras in your size, although I'd definitely double check your measurements against the size charts. :)
