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

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
