So strange how mixed people feel about m&s..
I had my first ever bra fitting in there about 4 years ago and it was the most awful experience ever.. the size they tried to tell me I was and the bra styles they gave me to try on .. ugh. I almost cried. I made some excuse to leave and never went back.
I nipped in annsummers as it was a few stores down and the size and bras were comfortable. Wouldn’t recommend for longevity but ugh it was a much nicer experience than m&s for fitting

I agree about M&S fittings, they are not great. Their bras are good though especially in the sale.
I think I will try Bravissimo next after seeing these comments.

Another vote for bravissimo for fittings if you can!
and also boob or bust is so good for home measuring as well! Plus it explains how bras should fit etc
Boux Avenue do lovely pretty bras but can run small in terms of sizing. Marks and Spencers and Debenhams do affordable options but again can be hit and miss with sizing.

Get your size using boob or bust then try Brastop - loads of choice and good prices!
I always bought my bras from M&S as I found them the comfiest but I had a bra fitting in Victoria secrets once and I was wearing 2 sizes bigger than what I was I couldn’t believe it! The woman was so nice she picked out all the bras that would suit me the best and honestly I wouldn’t buy them from anywhere else now, yes they’re pricey but so worth it and the quality is so good. I tend to wait till they have sale on and get a few then 
M&S never last well, the underwire always comes out and tries to stab me to death. Bravissimo are great for fittings, but the only bra I ever buy now is Elomi Cate. I have one is nearly every colour. I'm 38FF and they give a lovely shape and make them appear smaller.
I have really big boobs (36J) and I find it near impossible to find good bras! There’s a lady on Instagram called Bellarosa that does virtual bra fittings or comes to your house! She’s incredible and has so much stock, she fits by eye not tape measure and her results are always so good! She tells you what bras fit your breast shape and what will look the best on you! It’s around £10/15 for a fitting but it’s well worth it! X
I’m a 34C and I love Maidenform for bras. They are quite supportive and offer different styles like minimizers if that’s your thing. I also found a pretty good bra in women’secret, but they only go up to E cup.
I'm a 32E/F depending on the make and always end up back at Rigby & Peller. They are seriously expensive but I'm always happier with the fit than anywhere else. Victoria's Secret don't do my size, or at least they didn't when I asked them, and M&S bra's don't fit me properly and make me look like a bit saggy and large (I don't even have saggy boobs yet!). I had a bra fitted in Bravissimo and whilst it did give good support and shape etc after a few hours wearing I was really sore in the centre of the chest where the underwires were so tight to the chest. I know that's just one bra but it put me off going back! R&P are twice the price though so I hand wash the bras and have less of them than I probably would if I could buy them cheaper elsewhere.
For people with a larger cup size I would really recommend Miss Mandalay. Beautiful bras, non-frumpy and without the really wide straps or 3 hook fastenings. They also do bra-sized swimwear.
I was the same, changed boob size over lockdown and lived in sports bras. I didn’t want to buy a wired bra, so I have bought one from Sloggi. It’s the comfiest bra ever, no underwire but padded so you still have some shape, so light, I genuinely barely notice I have it on! A hug for my boobs. It’s not the most attractive but for day to day it’s perfect.
Asda have good bras for bigger busts but you do need to know your size.
I'm a 36c but recently my bras don't seem to be fitting correctly. I did buy about 3 bras recently thinking maybe they were getting old and not as supportive. Luckily they were in the sale so only about £5-7 each. I booked a fitting at bravissimo but I've read they usually do bigger sizes but they'd help if not. But unsure if I should book it somewhere else instead?
I would go to Bravissimo, youre likely not a 36C. They wont fit you into a bra if it isnt for you
Bravissimo are excellent and very patient. The complete opposite to the staff at John Lewis.
I think most often fitters find that people wear a back size too big and a cup size too small. When I went for a fitting a few years back I had been wearing a 38C and was fitted for a 36E/34FF (dependent on type of bra). The last fitting I had in pregnancy was at Bravissimo and I was really impressed.
You might be surprised that your size is different to what you’ve been wearing.
Went today and was a different size spent a lot , 
I had a fitting in Bravissimo and John Lewis back to back and measured 32E in both places and I’ve been wearing 34C for years. It’s amazing how the band doesn’t chafe under my arm area anymore. I was convinced that the chafing was to do with the band being too tight but it was because it was too lose and moved everytime I moved my arms.
