"Fitting Bras For Happy Boobs"

How to Find the Perfect Bra

80% of women wear the wrong bra size. Are you looking for the real fit? Here is how to determine your correct size.

Since the bra was invented a hundred years ago, materials have changed. Nowadays they are much more flexible than they used to be. However, the garment industry keeps holding onto the old, stiff sizes and does business as usual, offering bandwidths starting from 32 inches with cup sizes ranging from A to D. Sometimes you can even get an E…if you fancy skin-colored bras that is.

This is why especially slim women who are blessed in the chest usually wear underbust bands that are too wide and cups that are too small. When the underband is riding up your back, it is too wide and will not give your bust enough support. All of the weight will be hanging on the straps that painfully cut into your flesh. This leads to a bad posture and can result in chronic back pain.

It should be the other way around: The underbust band should be fairly tight, carrying most of the weight. Bigger cups will hold the volume and prevent the tissue from spilling out. For a big bust it is also recommended to wear broader straps. This way they won’t slip out of place and the straps won’t dig into your shoulders.

Now let’s find out what your real size is.

First, put on your best fitting bra and take your underbust measures. It is important that the measuring tape is horizontal. Then subtract two inches or five cm. This is the figure of your underband; the band will be widened by wearing and washing your bra regularly (that’s why you subtract the two inches). Now measure your bust size across the strongest part of your breasts, horizontally across the nippels.

When you’ve measured both sizes, subtract the underbust girth from your bust girth. The difference corresponds to your cup size, which you can easily figure out with this chart.

Congratulations, you now know your correct size! Don’t be scared if the result is not within the usual ABC-range. It’s not your body that has changed, it’s only that now you know the size you should really be wearing. Once you’ve worn a well-fitting bra for the first time, you won’t ever settle for less anymore.
