Had a look on google for you and found

http://www.biggirls.com.au/ (don't worry it's not a adult site!!)

Looks like there is online and a shop as well in Fortitude Valley. No idea how big Brisbane is and if it's near to you but there is a map on the site.

There's a shop called All about Eve on Adelaide St in the CBD - they stock Australian and UK / US brands including swimwear in a good range of sizes. Buying imported products isn't cheap but sure beats getting depressed at the lack of choice in Myer etc. I'm never keen on buying bras online from the UK because I find every bra is just a bit different and I can never be sure until I try on LOADS which I like best (and fits the best).

There's another shop in Brisbane CBD called Arianne I think that stocks bras for women who don't fit the 34C mould. I read about a new sports bra they've got in that doesn't have underwires but is incredibly supportive. Not that I do any sport

These guys do large cup sizes http://www.intimo.com.au/. Not a shop but buy in your own home like Tupperware etc. There will be consultants in your area.

I have the same problem being a 32E, I think someone could make a killing here with bras in D + sizes that don't look like something your granny would wear:

For DD-J:

Bras and things also does a larger size:

There's also Zodee which is a bit like Figleaves, in that it's a large site with plenty of range:
