I bought both my jackets from Cycle Gear; one's a house brand leather jacket, and one's a Sedici textile one. They fit me, but I can see how it could be tough to find a jacket that fits over the "girls." You might try a sports bra, rather than a normal one. That can give you a little bit more leeway in how big you need the jacket to be. Also, leather will stretch a tiny bit as it breaks in, which can give you just a little bit of room after a bit.

Pants- you might look at are from GoGoGear. They're really comfortable in either heat or cold, and they stretch a bit. Knee pads. One of the women in our sportbike club had a low-side in hers, with no damage to either pants or rider.

I've also got a couple pairs of kevlar-lined jeans. Advantage- they probably look better than the leggings when off the bike, but they are kind of loose at the bottom. And they have useful pockets!!!!
