Lingerie Online - a plus-size resource
These boutiques are primarily UK-based, for the obvious reason that I am too. This page is intended mainly as a resource for women who find it hard to locate lingerie catering for larger cup sizes (women who wear smaller cup sizes should have no problem finding underwear to fit). Obviously I cannot cover every online store, but if you have come across one you like, please . I've noted that prices can vary quite a lot between stores, so I suggest some surfing before eventually placing an order.
Amazing Undies
Has a very good range of lingerie with larger cup-sizes, including some brands and collections I have not seen before.
Available brands include Gossard, Berlei, Pretty Polly, Silhouette, Diki (made to order) and Beau Bras (made to order) There's
something for everyone: a wide range of sizes, and styles to suit all tastes from risqué to practical to glamourous. And they do
free postage and packing to mainland UK!

Ulla Dessous.

BrasBras.com
This boutique caters mainly for the classier end of the market. The list of brands stocked includes Passionata, Aubade,
Chantelle, Lejaby and La Perla - all very prestigious makes. There are some beautiful styles, and many are available up to an
E-cup.

Bravissimo
An easy-to-use, easy-to-browse online store with a searchable index of sizes and styles. It is specifically dedicated to the
busty woman, and only sells lingerie ranges which are manufactured in D+ cup sizes. What's more, there's usually a bargain
to be found in the sale section!

Brief Look
An expansive site selling a wide variety of lingerie - with cup sizes A-H and back sizes 30-50! As soon as you start to
browse, you're asked to input what size you're looking for, and you're then shown only styles which are available in your size.
There's also an advanced search so you can find a specific design. The site even incorporates a 'wishlist' feature.

CleverPants
Has a section for 'larger cup sizes', detailing the collections in which DD+ cup sizes are available. Most interesting for
those who feel a little lost when browsing through lingerie descriptions is the style guide: it offers definitions for the
various style definitions for bras and briefs.

Double-D.com
Double-D remains a firm favourite of mine. It sells an assortment of sizes, but only stocks collections which are available
in D+ cup sizes. Not only does the site have various options for browsing the ranges available, but it also incorporates a whole
load of other stuff including articles, breast health info, help for men, news and recommendations. A well-rounded resource in
every way.

Elingerie
Stylish site offering high quality lingerie from such names as Rigby & Peller, Chantelle and Janet Reger. Styles are
shown in each collection to simplify selection. There is help for 'him buying for her' and an express gift service. Prices are
very competitive, with an on-line stock check and worldwide shipment is free.

Essensuals
I highly recommend this boutique - if only for its DD+
sizes section, holding a great number of extremely attractive garments.

Maple Drive
Browse by size, brand, style, category... Anything! Very good to navigate, with a huge range of items to suit any taste,
occasion, and body shape - plus special offers.

Midnight Express
Janet Reger, Diki, Rigby & Peller and Lise Charmel are the top names in this boutique - all can be trusted to come up
with beautiful lingerie (with a worthy price tag). Lepel, Fantasie and Freya also produce extremely attractive attire, but for a
far reduced rate.

Olivia King
Recently founded and still growing, Olivia King Lingerie offers a full range of sizes and a variety of brands. What's
particularly worth mentioning though, is their high level of customer service. They are willing to investigate and locate
hard-to-find bra sizes on behalf of their customers, or even put together a presentation on bras available in a particular
size.

The Lingerie Company
A lingerie shop with quite a history - its original shop has been around for over 50 years in the Midlands market town of
Hinckley. The online store offers the ability to browse by manufacturer or category, or to use the advanced search facility to
narrow down the choices. There are 20 or so different makes available, and plenty of styles up to and beyond a DD.

Victoria's Secret
I don't really need to say anything about Victoria's Secret, do I! The company pushes an ideal figure quite a bit, with many
styles being very limited in the cup size range (several available in B or C only!). However, a fair number do go up to a D, and
some even a DD! Some of their products are lovely, and the site is well organised and easy to navigate.
