Custom undergarments

OK, Bay Area folks, I've got guests coming in to town. One of them has heard of a place (Berkeley area, maybe?) that specializes in bras for nonstandard women. Er, let me rephrase: women with a nonstandard ribcage-to-boobage ratio.

This would normally be only an amusing sidenote (oh, those crazy Californians!) but for two things. 1) I could sure use a visit to a place like that myself. 2) It's my fault she's heard of it -- apparently, long ago, I'm the one who told her!

What was it? A store that does custom work? A store with a much wider variety than usual of premade stuff? I'm sure it wasn't just the Title Nine store, but I'll take her there too.

Wow, that last link is very informative. I could have about sixteen different cup sizes depending on the manufacturer's whim. :)

Sadly, Road Runner bottoms out at a 32" ribcage and Bare Necessities stops at 30. I'm solidly 28. My mother, on the other hand, might be able to do well with some of these links. We're opposites. She got all the ribs and I got all the boobage! :)
