 The
right bra can greatly improve the way your shape, lifting your bust,
eliminating bumps and ridges under your clothes and improving your
posture, yet according to a recent survey eight out of 10 women are
wearing bras that don’t fit. A badly fitting bra can be very
uncomfortable too. Straps that dig in and underwires in the wrong
position can cause discomfort and soreness: a bra that’s too
tight makes you more likely to hunch your body which can exacerbate
back pain
 Breast
size and shape change over time too- especially in your teens and
twenties, during and after pregnancy and at the menopause, and most
of us gain and lose weight periodically

"Undergarments are the most important part of dressing. They are the foundation on which a good outfit is built on" says Tim Gunn.

Determine
Your Band Size
Using a tape measure, measure the area around your ribcage (in
inches) directly under the bust. The tape measure should rest
snugly and smoothly against your skin.

Determine
Your Cup Size
Wearing an unpadded bra, measure around the fullest point of
your bust, holding the tape measure straight, but not too tightly.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS

The following charts were meant to provide
you with a guideline in determining your ideal bra size. As every
woman's body is unique, measurement results may vary slightly.
PERFECT FIT CHECKLIST
A good fitting bra should be comfortable and breasts should be supported by the body of the bra, not the straps. As every woman's figure has individual differences we recommend the following checklist to ensure your bra fits properly.
The back of the bra should lay straight across the back and should never ride up the back. If a band rides up you are not being properly supported.
The front center of the bra should lay flat against the body.
Cups should never gap or wrinkle anywhere and breasts should never spill out or bulge over the cup.
Most importantly, the underwire of the bra should rest just under and around the breast, the wire should never rest on breast tissue even at the sides.
Straps should have some tensions but should never fall or dig into your shoulders.

Measuring
Our interactive fit checklist makes it easier to find a bra that fits
you. Just follow the instructions. Keep in mind that the best way
to be fitted for a bra is to have someone else take your measurements
- ideally a trained and certified Bra expert.
