Yes, I wouldn't invest in any expensive bras for a year or two, if I were you. The real problem with bra fitting-- or fitting any women's fashions these days-- is that every manufacturer sizes things differently. There really is not standard. I've read a couple of articles on this. It's a deliberate scheme to provoke shoppers into only buying their brand. Add to that the fact that quality control in manufacturing is usually lousy and sizes can even vary within a particular model's stated size.
I decide entirely by trial and error that I could usually wear a 36 band, but I'm sure it could be something else with some makes. The best strategy is probably to buy at a store where you can try it on, if possible. Avoid Vicky's Secrets, though. They're employees are often helpful, but actually clueless about bra fitting and often sell people the wrong size.
