Bra Sizing Explained

According to research up to 70% of women could be wearing the wrong size of bra. Common signs of not having the correct size bra include the shoulder straps digging in and leaving marks, the back of the bra not quite level with the front, the breasts oozing out of the cups and a small gap between the bra and breastbone. If you are having trouble sizing or finding a bra please send us an email and we may be able to sort out a comfortable and good looking bra for you.

Remember that as your body changes your breasts do too. If you have put on weight since your last measurement was taken the chances are that your breasts have increased as well. Check your size on a regular basis to make sure you are wearing the correct size bra.

At the end of the day the best bra size for you is the one that fits best. If you've found a comfortable size that works for you, stick with it, but remember it must offer good support especially if your are a large cup size. Remember that common signs of not having the correct size bra include the shoulder straps digging in and leaving marks, the back of the bra not quite level with the front, the breasts oozing out of the cups and a small gap between the bra and breastbone.

So what’s next, go online and use a bra size calculator I suppose but, there’s so many of them and they all have different ways of working out our sizes and then you’ll probably have six different sizes to choose from so how will you know which one is your actual size. Its all so confusing and annoying to have to measure yourself and type in all your information, maybe dozens of times, only to find that you have no actual size that goes with the size bra you’ve been wearing for the last year or so!

Trying On Different Size Bras
Maybe you could just go around different shops and try on lots of different bras and maybe that way you’ll find a bra that fits you properly, although that would probably take hours and it would be very tedious. The biggest problem you’d have is that all bra manufacturers have different cut sizes for their fabrics. So you could probably end up trying on every bra from every lingerie company there is.
