  • Fitting Advice

    We always strive for the PERFECT FIT

    Why do I need a well fitting bra?

    A well fitting bra is the perfect foundation for any outfit and fundamental to your well-being. Without it you do not have the support that your body deserves, especially for those with a larger bust. The right bra will change your body shape; it will lift your breasts and make your body look narrower and longer. Magic!

    How do I know if it's a good fit?

    To fit your bra, fasten it securely on the middle hook so that adjustments can be made in the future if it gets too big or too small. Bend forward and make sure wires and seams are positioned under your bust. Stand upright and move your breasts if necessary to ensure they are inside the wire and seams. The band should be level all the way around your body and the wires and seams of the bra should be sitting flush against your rib cage and under your arms.

    Now face a mirror and lift your arms to check that the bra isn’t rising up. Also make sure you're breasts are sitting comfortably in the cups and there is no spill over the top of the cups. The straps should run parallel and you should be able to fit 2 fingers (about 1/2 inch). Any tighter and the straps will dig into your shoulders.

    If you’re sure bra is the right size but it is still not fitting correctly you might just have the wrong style bra for your body. Why not visit us in our boutique for specialist help?

    What is my size?

    To get an indication of what your bra size might be take two measurements: the under-bust measurement and the over-bust measurement, which is measured around the fullest part of your bust.

    The under-bust measurement is a guide to your band size and the difference between your under-bust and over-bust measurement gives an indication of your cup size. These measurements are only indicative and brands use different sizing. We strongly recommend that you try on a variety of styles (preferably with the assistance of an experienced fitter) to find the perfect fit.

    Band size
    Measure around your body under your bust and round up to the nearest even number in inches. This is your indicative band size. For example an under-bust measurement of 31 inches suggests a band size 32.

    Cup size
    Measure your body across the fullest part of your bust, then subtract your under-bust measurement from this. Use the table below to identify your cup size.
