What a trip I've had checking it all out. Article after article. Page after page, until I finally combined what I think are the important things to know before buying your next bra.
I learned getting the right fit could make us look thinner. I liked that. I also learned that bras made outside the US don't always have cup sizes similar to our USA brands.
Getting fitted, professionally fitted that is, is most important. Know before you buy. Specialty stores like Soma, that primarily sell Intimate apparel, will often have trained bra fitters. They should do it free. Fine department stores usually have a fitter. If not, watch for ads when fitters might be coming to the store near you.
You can do it yourself.
1 - Get a tape measure, tightly wrap it under your bust.
2 - If the measurement is an odd number, add 5 inches. Even, add 4 inches.
3 - Cup size-wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust.
4 – Subtract your band size from the cup size.
5 – 1' is A cup; 2' B; 3' C; 4' D; 5"DD; 6' DDD; 7' E
We should have a minimum of 5 bras, two in the same style. One for casual or sports, one for dress up, and one to feel elegant, sexy, and up to date
When you know your right size, it's easy to order from Amazon especially with their easy return policy.
