Q&A: Large Bras, Made or Altered
Q: Hi, Sandra! This is my first time using this site and I hope you can help. I used to have a wonderful place to go for bras where Rose Marie would alter them. She retired, and I am desperate, and have been wearing that last bra I got there over and over and over because I cannot find a place to either have bras made or where they can procure large sizes and then do decent alterations, add comfort straps, etc.
I guess I am looking for a place where staff has the patience and expertise to fit a person with uneven “floppy disks” and do alterations, if needed, or actually custom-make one for me. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
A: The one place that I know of which still did this is: Boutique Anne Marie, 6648A St-Hubert 514-273-5503 276-0347 The (male) designer/owner has worked with all kinds of women (and men!) to fit bras. He sells sizes up to 50G or 44KK, so I think this will work. He has female staff.
Also try Change Lingerie in the Rockland Shopping Center or Carrefour Agrignon. They do not make them or fix them but they do sell bras up to size 40J and sell comfort straps.
