The bra shop in the group of shops by fabric 205 is good. (I have been there lots but cannot remember the name- sorry!)


The fitter is the lady who used to be in ed warehouse.


She stocks Freya plus a few other brands which go up a larger cup size.

Bloomers on lordship lane .

Failing that the Anita maternity bras with soft wire is super , doesn't block the milk ducts thus causing discomfort and gives great support .

Bloomers is great but I prefer Bravissimo if you can face a trip to town. Like buggie I just wore a normal under wired, one back size bigger throughout pregnancy until I had to wear nursing ones, after that I liked the Anita ones.

I love rigby and peller - the fit is always perfect. I got fitted for an Anita bra there and then ordered a few more off the internet for a lower price. Just another option (but as not particularly local). Will probably try bloomers out though as so handy if a good fit from there!

Does the 'Fitting Room' still exist in Forest Hill? The lady who ran it specialised in pregnancy/maternity fitting for the ...ahem... more endowed among us. I think someone told me she was Rigby & Peller trained too. I always heard very good things from the women I knew who went the there for their Bra's, it would be a shame if it no longer exists.

It was still there when I passed it a couple of a weeks ago.

Does any one know of a brand of pregnancy bras which makes smaller back sizes with big cup sizes?


I remember liking the Anita bras last time, but they only start at 34" back size which is too big. Royce do 32" back but they're not the most attractive of bras and come really high up at the front which means they can't be worn under lots of tops and dresses which are lower cut.


Any ideas? Thanks.

Knomester I use the Fitting Room in FH and did for both pregnancies. The woman there is great and lots of small back size/bigger cup options. Although the days of me having a seriously small back are now behind me, sob, I'm definitely smaller than a 34/32 and their selection was great. xx

      The Mansion Tax

      This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!

      I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Cancerian · Posted

      Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
