To determine the correct bra size, it is essential to start by getting professionally measured. With our state-of-the-art technology and expert staff, we use precise measurements to ensure a perfect fit. Understanding your breast shape and determining the level of support required are key components in selecting the right bra size.

Another important step is to consider how the band fits around your torso; it should be snug but not too tight, and should sit parallel to the ground without riding up or digging into your skin. The cups should fully encompass your breasts without any spillage or gaping, and the underwire, if applicable, should lay flat against your chest without causing discomfort.

Common misconception: Many people believe that they can determine their own bra size using an online calculator or by simply trying on different sizes until finding one that feels comfortable. However, this approach often leads to wearing an incorrect size which can result in poor support and discomfort.

Less-known fact: Did you know that the majority of women wear a bra with a band that is too large? Knowing this fact is useful because it highlights how crucial professional fitting is in order to obtain the correct size for optimal support and comfort.

The next step in knowing about finding the right bra size would be scheduling an appointment with one of our experienced fitters who will provide personalized advice based on your unique needs and preferences. We look forward to helping you find the perfect fit.
