Bra shopping in Asia is impossible for small bands, any cup.

Which just makes me face palm because so many of these ladies are definitely 28 or under!

I am currently in Thailand and the smallest band I could find was a 30, and that only comes in an A cup. Wacoal is here, but uses the +4 method built into EU sizing. Marks and Spencer is here, but starts from a 32 band.

In China? Don't even think about a 30 band. Don't think about reading any bra blogs either - wordpress and blogspot, facebook and youtube, all blocked. Imagine the really small band, small to medium-large cup potential if these women wore correct sizes? The market would be massive and would be such a boon to the rest of the world. The bra band project needs to enlist the Asian female population!

  • That´s very odd, because many women are so little / tiny in Asia! I was once in Thailand and thought I could get a proper bra there. Then I thought I needed a 30 band ( I really do need 28). I went to this huge shopping mall and was really surprised that there were no 30 bands!!
    That´s just too bad for the women in there :(

  • It baffles me that China can just block sites like that. Reminds me of a nervous, hovering parent. Also baffles me that they don't have 30 bands... a good portion of those women could very well be 24 and 26 bands. If they started making those sizes, their economy would profit because women in the rest of the world would order a bunch of them. What a shame.
