Tips to Help You Determine Proper Bra Fitting |
|
 |
 |
Put the bra on by slipping the straps over your shoulders, leaning forward from the waist and easing your breasts into the cups. Fasten the bra on the center hook. |
|
 |
 |
Cups should completely contain your breasts and fit smoothly--with no bulges at the top, sides or bottom. |
|
 |
 |
Center seam should lie flat against your breastbone, without gaps between the cups. |
|
 |
 |
Your bra should be snug, not tight. You should be able to run your finger under the band in front. |
|
 |
 |
Check the position of the lower edge of the bottom band. The band should rest at or below your shoulder blades, and should be horizontal with the front of the bra (not riding up). The lower the back fits, the more support you get. |
|
 |
 |
Adjust your straps so that they stay put without pressure or cutting. |
|
 |
 |
Check your strap adjustment and bra’s support by sliding the straps off your shoulders. You should be able to slide off the straps without the bra’s bust support changing significantly. |
|
 |
 |
The underwires should fit snugly to your rib cage and not cut into your breast tissue. |
|
 |
 |
When you sit down, the position of the bra should not change. |
