Many Women are wearing the wrong size bra
The table below should help you find a better fitting bra
| Problem |
Solution |
| Your Bosom is bulging out of the top, or sides, of the cup and your bust looks lumpy under clothes? |
Cup Size is too small. Your bosom should be totally encased in the cups. |
| The cup wrinkles, particularly at top and sides? |
Cup Size is too big. Your bosom should be enclosed in the cups with a smooth silhouette |
| Your Bra rides up your back? |
Back Size is too big. The strap should fit very snugly around your rib cage. |
| The wires stick out at the front, or dig in under your arms? |
Cup Size is too small. The wires should lie flat against your body and fully encase your bosom. |
| The straps dig into your shoulders? |
The shoulder straps are too tight.
or,
The Back Size is too big. The main support for your bosom should come from the strap around your body and the cup, not the shoulder straps. |
