Throw Away Your Tape Measures!
For many women, past experiences in trying to find the right bra size have meant hunting down a tape measure and measuring themselves - taking over and under bust measurements, adding or subtracting another number, working out the difference between two other numbers and then, hey presto, ending up with a bra size.
At Bravissimo, years of experience of working with you to find your perfectly fitting bra means we believe that tape measures don't help when it comes to finding a bra that fits properly. Every woman's boobs vary in volume, shape, size and spacing and these are all factors in getting the right size. The volume of your boobs may be more at the bottom, sides or top, and this will affect the size you need to ensure you look great and feel comfortable. If you take a number of women with identical over and under bust measurements, our experience shows the bras that actually fit them may all be different sizes.
This is why we suggest you forget about measuring yourself and concentrate instead on how your bra looks and feels. You may find trying a bra on in front of a mirror helps you to really see which areas are right and which may need some adjusting.
Here's a three step check to help you find the right bra size for you. Don't forget, if you have any trouble or are not sure which size to order, all our customer services consultants are trained to offer you bra fitting advice over the phone. We love hearing from you and helping you find the right size, so please call and have a chat with us on 01926 459859 if you have any questions at all.
