2-in-3 women with big boobs sold ill-fitting bras
Two in three women with big boobs are let down by stores which sell them the wrong size bras, it has been found.A study by Which? found that women with DD breasts or bigger, regularly suffer at the hands of poor fitting services (so to speak).
The consumer group sent a sample of women aged 25-75 into high street stores for a bra fitting to test the services.
Only 29 percent were measured correctly and one woman was told she was a size 34FF in one store and 40D in another.
And in odd news, staff at one store even suggested to a 75-year-old woman she should wear a Wonderbra-style bra… not that her 82-year-old husband minded.
Which? spokesperson Jenny Driscoll said: "Whatever their bra size, women want to look good and feel good.
"Heading to the high street for a fitting might seem like a simple solution, but our results were shocking - one bra was so poorly fitted there was room for a pair of socks in the cups!
"If stores are going to offer this service they need to up their game: do it properly or don’t do it at all."
