Phew! Finally a place that fits me

For 70 years, ladies in New England have been going to Lady Grace to be fitted for undergarments. Most of the sales staff is pretty nice. They’re fairly patient if you’re a hard-to-fit size, and will order several bras sent to the store closest to you.
They even have nursing bras and special post surgery bras made to fit prosthetics and yet make you look perfectly natural.
If you’re a very unusual size, like a 32I or a 50A, you can shop in their Woburn, MA store where the warehouse is based, and immediately walk out with what you need in the colors you want. And you also don’t have to worry about being measured by a saleslady who can’t find your size, gives up, and tries to sell you whatever they have in stock that’s closest to you. If they don’t have your size in stock, they’ll find you a seamstress who can alter the bra for you.
This Lily of France sweater bra which looks great under a T-shirt is just $14.99 — and is padded, with no wires. Despite the fact that they’ve been fitting ladies since 1937, you can now order from them online. Or, call their toll-free number (1-800-922-0504) and you’ll have a nice lady at the warehouse help you figure out the shipping charges, and often you’ll get what you need within the week.
