How Should A Bra Fit?

Good FitBad Fit
Properly Fitting Bra Pic. Poorly Fitting Bra Pic.
A good fit - the bra is snug and lower in the back than in the front, allowing the band to provide the support and keep the weight off of the shoulders.

Properly Fitting Cup Pic. Poorly Fitting Cup Pic.
A good fit - the breasts fit into the cups completely with no bulges over the top, under the arms, or out the bottom.

How Do I Find The Right Size?

Take a few measurements:
 
Measure across the fullest part of the bust (with a bra on)
 
Measure the ribcage just below the bust.
Measuring for a bra pic.        If you need a longline bra, also measure at the waist.
 
If you need a corset or all in one, measure at the waist and hip as well as the ribcage and bust.


There are many variables that can affect sizing. For example, cup sizes over a D may have different names. The Bra Wizard can help you with this and other variables. Let her know the measurements you took and your current size. She will give you advice on sizes and styles.
