Britain's biggest bra is an incredible 48N cup

A lingerie firm in Britain has come up with the biggest bra, which is being offered up to a staggering size 48N.

Rigby and Peller begun offering the soft non-wired bra to the UK's curviest ladies just days after high street store Bravissimo declared they sold the largest bra in an L cup.

The giant bra has been specially engineered to support big-boobed girls with a built-in "cradle" in the cups to spread the breast's weight while the straps have special extra-strong padding.

The bra is available in black or nude colours at the firm's seven high street stores and costs 55.95 pounds.

"To find both comfort and support in a bra is usually the holy grail for larger busted ladies," the Sun quoted a Rigby and Peller spokeswoman as saying.
