lack of choice in the plus size dept?

I'm hoping its not just me but I was just looking in the bra and bra sets section and thought "Yes!! They've got my size!!"; only to be horribly disappointed that it was only one bra. I don't think my 38F size 16 frame is huge, I just want some sexy nonindustrial undies.

Am I the only one?

its not just plus size thats the problem, i think its the lingerie industry in general. most places will stock 32-36 A- DD.

im a 30H and find it impossible to got sexy lingerie in my size. i end up spending extortionate amounts on practical, industrial underwear from specialist boutiques/deparment stores.

evans has some prettier day to day bras ( theyre not sexy but at least theyre not plain cotton) though they tend to be expensive so maybe look in the sales?

I'll have a look thanks sweetlove. M&S are the other ones that annoy me, you either stock the size or you don't. I hate thinking ooh pretty undies only to be horribly disappointed when it stops at a DD, undies shopping always makes me sad.

Do you mean on Lh? I wouldn't be too disappointed about lack of choice here - they're not really marketing themselves as having an extensive lingerie collection. On the other end of the scale I'm under represented here too but much of what they sell here is "one size" or S M L rather than specific sizes. Definitely better looking at specialist lingerie stores. Although yes even specialist stores are rubbish at getting a wide range of sizes and that is frustrating!

Most stores have a lack of choice for either ends of the scales, same with bust sizes.

Its not just the UK either, in the US my OH has major issues finding sexy undies... she is a 38DD so not too big either

Im the same as Hazy! Although I'm not a plus size I'm a 30FF.

Its a pain in the ass finding sexy lingerie that fits well! Even just buying every day bras its hard, they're all so expensive when your an awkward size. Costs me between £16-£24 for just one bra, I begrudge paying so much but it has to be done. I know about the cheaper online shops and use them frequently but even there the range isn't what I'm personally looking for. Alot of the bras on there are for older women (30s) I'm only just turning 20!
