Bra Fitting Guide: Is Your Bra the Right Size?

* Knowing whether your bra fits properly is key to feeling comfortable. Here’s how to check:

* Cup Fit: The cup should sit comfortably around your bust without any gaps or spillage.

* Strap Fit: Shoulder straps should lie flat against your shoulders, providing support without digging into your skin.

* Band Fit: The band should be snug but not tight, sitting horizontally across your back. If the band rides up or digs in, it’s time to adjust your size.

 

How to Put on a Bra Correctly?

Adjust the Straps

Ensure the straps are not too tight or loose, and they stay comfortably on your shoulders.

Fasten the Band

Fasten the band behind you, ensuring it sits snugly just under your ribcage.

Position the Cups

Lean forward and scoop your breasts into the cups for a smooth fit.

Check the Fit

Ensure the band is level and snug. The cups should cover your breasts without bulging.

Re-adjust the Straps

Make final adjustments to the straps for optimal support.

Move Around

Stand and move to check the bra stays in place and feels comfortable. 

Caring for Your Bra?

Hand Wash or Machine Wash in a Bag

Hand wash bras using mild detergent and lukewarm water to preserve elasticity. Use a mesh lingerie bag for machine washing.

Avoid Fabric Softener

Fabric softeners can break down the elastic fibers, reducing support.

Air Dry

Lay your bras flat to dry, avoiding wringing them out or using a tumble dryer.

Rotate Between Bras

To extend the life of your bras, rotate wearing different ones to prevent overstretching.

Store Properly

Store your bras in a drawer or on a shelf, keeping the cups shaped and not crushed.

Replace Regularly

Bras lose elasticity over time. Replace them every 6-12 months for optimal support.
