Tailoring bras to fit you?

Does anyone have experience buying bras in a sister size to tailor it to yourself later? I wear a 30JJ/K in Curvy Kate, but the options are pretty limited . Plus ,I've read that Curvy Kate cups actually run big, so that eliminates other cute bras from a lot of other companies for me.
I really ,really want a longline bra,but no one seems to make it above an H cup. I was wondering if it would work if I bought a 34 H and had it tailored (by someone who knows how ) to my 30jj? This question goes for other bra styles too. Does anyone have any experience with this?

  • It is possible to alter a band to make it smaller, but I think if you go beyond 1 band size you take the risk of the wires being too wide

  • I've never tried it, but one thing to note is that 34H is a sister size to 30J, not 30JJ
