This is another gem of Horsforth that I had previously been unaware of until my recent visit. As…read morelingerie shops go I usually avoid them in favour of cheaper stores, since I am a fairly unassuming size which requires little specialist attention! I really do feel for any girls out there whose only option is to spend a vast amount purely due to their cup size requirements. But, I would suggest to those ladies, this shop may be the secret you've been hoping for. The first thing my friend and I noticed on entering was the extensive range of sizes within. Usually all you can hope for is B - E but we were seeing AAs to Gs, and beyond, all over the place! There was also a beautiful selection of night dresses, a lacy ruby red item caught my eye, some cosy looking dressing gowns and some delightful 'cyber jammies' pyjamas. My favourite nightwear item was a sort of 'boyfriend shirt' type night dress, which looked like it would be both comfy and sexy in that very casual kind of way. For all you nightwear and underwear needs this place is both great value and beautifully stocked. The staff are helpful too, so don't be afraid to ask. Lovely!

You'd normally think that larger sized cups come in boring designs and unflattering patterns. Nicola Jane has changed my perception of this immensely. Pretty, girly and fun seem to be the name of the game in this particular shop. Swimwear and sleepwear is also available and the variety of prices and styles means it's easy to tailor for different needs. Private appointments for lingerie fitting can be made by calling the shop and free measuring is available all day. Make sure you have self control over your budget before you enter!

Absolutely fantastic…read more I went in on the off chace for a bra fitting, which turns out to be the best decision I have ever made. I had been wearing a 36C my entire adult life when it turns out I am actually a 32E!!! The staff could not have been more helpful. I had no idea that bras had so many styles and shapes, and they were very kind in going through all the types and picking out the ones that best suited me. The particular sales assistant I had, Lauren, went above and beyond and I am very grateful to her. Yes, they are pricey. I think the cheapest is around £28, which is far more that what I would normally pay. However, since no other high street shops cater for the larger sizes, at least not in such a wide selection, it is definitely worth the investment! You are going to wear them every day after all, and a good fitting bra is essential for your health, well being and confidence! I haven't felt this fantastic in years! I went in the shop covered up in baggy tops and a cardigan, I was allowed to wear the bra I bought straight out the shop, and I left skipping out in just my vest and leggins because I felt so great!

I visited this small but perfectly formed shop on a cobbled side street while in York for the day…read more Lovely helpful staff although they didn't have my size in stock. Worth checking back though, as there is a wide range of beautiful top-brand lingerie geared towards larger cup sizes. You can get fitted here as well as try anything you like on. The whole experience feels as if you are entering a mysterious world of glamour and classy femininity. It is so worth a visit. And you may find something gorgeous to wear, that supports and flatters your figure - always a good confidence booster!

I used to be a little skater girl back in the day so Quiksilver and its sister brand Roxy became…read more'cool' in my twelve-year-old eyes. I do remember though getting a bit bored of the typical branded and stereotypically surfer-girl look to the clothing as it just seemed a bit too obvious. Quiksilver has changed a lot since then in its range for women, with much more in the way of stylish, flattering and interesting garments and none of the garish branding of yesteryear. Great! The women's wear in their Leeds shop is upstairs in a pleasant minimally decorated room with friendly staff. The guy's section on the ground floor still bears a strong resemblance to the clobber I remember from my skater days with many a logoed hoodie, but also some simpler, cooler items. They also sell a range of trainers, bags and wallets with the Quiksilver logo. I'm glad to see Quiksilver branching out to some more interesting designs for women, which still retain the slouchy, comfortable feel of skater gear.

I love me ski jackets and skater wear. I do. Walking into the Leeds Quiksilver, you could be easily…read moredisappointed with the size of the store. It's tiny. But it's well packed. The bounty of Quiksilver goods are cleverly placed around the small shop floor, utilising the height as well as the depth of the place. Ground floor, accessories, menswear, kids. First Floor, Roxy - ladies' wear. The buyers have chosen a good round mix of merchandise to kit the store out with. There are the trusty ski jackets, hooded tops, woolly hats, jeans, some footwear, wallets, backpacks, t shirts, shirts, swimwear and more. There's also four changing rooms. It's like Narnia. The brand speaks for itself, Quiksilver always provide good quality clothing, and the choice as said, is really good for the small store. I always like to take advantage of sales season, as Quiksilver do really discount their higher end prices, quite heavily, especially when a new season is looming, and I've had many a bargain from this little gem. The staff are always really helpful too. There's one lass, that whenever I go in she has a different hair colour, I think purple is the choice of the moment, anyway she's really nice, and really helpful especially if you're buying for someone else, be it a kidlet, a sister, the other half or whatnot. She has plenty of suggestions and has no qualms in routing around in the stockroom for sizes that aren't out on display. There's a youngish fella that works in there too, and I find him most helpful on technical clothing; if there's a new waterproofing technique or material quality to be had, he knows about it and he can explain it to you in detail. All in all it's a good lil shop with lots of things to choose from, and helpful cheery staff who actually look happy to be working there.

Soi 77 brands itself as a streetwear boutique, which is a good way of describing this little gem…read more Although I'm glad Exit is in excellent shopping proximity, stores like Freespirit and Route One closing have made me sad. Soi 77 makes me happy again, it's been around for a couple of years now and it presents itself to be a good and dare I say, trendy addition to Huddersfield, especially when you consider the amount of businesses that have shut in this large and lovely town lately. It's a small shop, but it crafts itself well, making use of all the space it has to offer, you can make purchase of coats, jackets, t-shirts, tops, jeans, sneakers, belts, belt buckles, backpacks and even the occasional piece of artwork. Covering brands such as Nike 6.0, Trainerspotter, Etines, Levis, Zoo York, Analog, Carhart and Addict, there's always something practical and brightly coloured in Soi 77. The owner is always here, and he's super nice and friendly and helpful, he also has the heads up on all future stock, being the owner and all, and if you can't get something in his store he's happy to direct in the way of others. My favourite department of Soi 77 is the belt buckle display in the front window!!! It's ever changing and it's shiny and it's awesome!!! I love it, they're also some of the most inexpensive belts and buckles I've seen, with a belt and buckle totalling in at £20. I've paid £10 for the belt alone on prior occasions.

Soi77 is located in the Imperial Arcade, and could be defined as a skate/cool/urban shop. It is…read morerather small, but there are load and load of things in store - hoodies, T-shirts, trousers. There is also a number of skateboarding shoes and a few accessories - belts, belt buckles, sunglasses - just to name a few. The shop owner is a very cool guy, always helpful and welcoming. The items are rather expensive, but it is always a bit pricey in these kind of shops. This is one of the two best skate shops in town.

I will actually never go anywhere else for a bra again!!…read more Started shopping at Bravissimo for bras when I was looking for a really good nursing bra when Mini MacDoo number 2 came along. My boobs had got to more stupendous proportions than even M&S could handle, and I wasn't happy with the advice given at the fitting there so figured I'd better find somewhere more specialist. So I got properly fitted and woweee what a difference! I was wearing a good few back sizes too big and a good few cup sizes too small, but the difference in the 'lift' it gave me and how supported I felt was amazing! That was two years ago now and since then I have lost a *considerable* amount of weight so have been back quite often to get a new bra that fits me properly as I've dropped down the sizes. The difference each time is amazing, I really do think it knocks another dress size off to have a properly fited bra that gives you proper lift. The staff are always super helpful and really good at advising on the best styles and 'fits' to suit your shape. The selection of bras is always great too, from functional sports bras and structural strapless bras, through supportive every-day bras to really pretty fancy bra & knicker sets. Price-wise, yes you'll pay a bit more than you would at M&S, you're probably looking at £20-£30 per bra, but in my opinion it is worth every single penny. I'm gonna sound like Gok here, but you need that good structural foundation and it will make a huge difference to how fabulous you look in your clothes. Go on. Treat your boobs*. They deserve it. ----------------------------------------- *Fellas - buy your ladyfriend a voucher - brownie points ahoy!

A mother of a friend of mine works at a Bravissimo branch and informed my girlfriend and I out the…read moreservice they provided on several occasions before I eventually tried it out. The company's theory is the way that all other bra fitters and underwear shops measure our lady lumps is incorrect and bad for our breasts! Bravissimo sizes often come up smaller around the chest and way more on the cup! For example a 32A becomes a 28 C due a system of measuring that I couldn't go into deal about without sounding rude due to my lack of correct terminology on the subject! I found the whole experience a little weird as it went against anything I had ever learned about underwear in the past! However the staff were nice and very friendly and some of the bra's are really pretty. The prices are very expensive I feel and only often have the sizes in for bigger breast women as this is the company's concentrated area. If you are struggling finding the right underwear I would recommend this service as staff are very efficient and fitting is free! However if you are happy with the size you are wearing I wouldn't bother yourself with it. All it did was slightly confuse me, get me a frilly bra and leave me £35 out of pocket!

I had three staff members tending to me and both my girlfriend and I were offered a complementary cappuccino! We were given a tour of all of the new items and the items were catered to what he (I didn't catch the employee's name) thought I liked based on what I was wearing. He was super friendly and helpful. We were really treated while trying out different pieces of clothing. It worked! I ended up purchasing a black hoodie (which fits me perfectly, is extremely comfortable and looks awesome), some new jeans (Razor type, I believe) and a super soft green pullover jumped. Two thumbs up to this designer. Note: This is the first Denham store in the UK! The designer is supposedly very highly regarded in the industry.
