Default Any Bravissimo ladies on here?

Is there an equivalent to this wonderful life-saver of a store over here? I am guessing there is. I've trawled the internet a wee bit but it's always difficult to tell online so I thought I would turn to the hive mind that is the BE forum

I'm based in NJ so anywhere there or I could even be brave and travel into NYC.

Any and all help appreciated.

I can't help you as I haven't heard of it...but depending where you are there may be a Gary's Winestore nearby. Gary stocks British goodies...also look for The Irish Shop located in some if the malls. Super Shop n Stop also have an international section...they have a few British goodies.

Doubt they sell these sort of 'goodies' as it's lingerie for the larger ladies.

Chocolate is very important!

thanks for those websites folks...will investigate. I would say I'd let you know how I get on but that might be TMI

I like figleaves.com for the sizes but they don't have any stores. Lands End also does good bra sized swimwear which I have been happy with. You can also order from Bravissimo and have it shipped here, I find the prices quite reasonable.

Again, I never even thought about having it shipped over. I think my brain is on hold this week.
Thanks for the advice :-)

Only on the weekends

But anyway, I'm the one darning the missus suites.
