Yes, the bra band should feel snug and supportive. It should fit firmly around your ribcage without feeling restrictive or uncomfortable. The band plays a crucial role in providing support for your bust, so it’s important that it fits just right. I recommend getting measured to ensure you are wearing the correct band size to avoid any discomfort or lack of support.
Some misconceptions about bra bands being tight is that they can be uncomfortable and restrict breathing. However, when fitted properly, the band should feel snug without causing any discomfort or restricting movement. The truth is that a correctly fitting bra band will provide necessary support and lift for your bust while still allowing for comfortable movement and breathability.
An interesting fact about bra bands is that they are designed with specific materials and construction techniques to provide optimal support without feeling constricting. Knowing this can help you understand why it’s important to prioritize finding the right fit rather than simply opting for a looser band for comfort reasons.
