I recommend getting a professional bra fitting to determine your ideal size. Our store offers this service for free, and it can ensure that you are wearing the correct size to provide optimal comfort and support. It is important to take into consideration not only the band size but also the cup size, as well as factors such as breast shape, spacing, and firmness. The ideal bra size may vary depending on the type of bra – for example, a sports bra may require a different size than an everyday t-shirt bra.

It’s important to note that there is no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to finding your ideal bra size. Many people believe that their ideal size is solely based on measurements or calculations from online charts, but these methods often overlook individual differences in body shape and personal preferences. The truth is that finding the right fit involves a combination of accurate measurements along with trying on various styles and brands to see what feels best for you.

A less-known fact about finding the ideal bra size is that weight fluctuations, pregnancy, hormonal changes, and aging can all affect breast size and shape. Keeping track of these changes can be useful in determining if it’s time for a new fitting or trying out different styles. I recommend keeping an eye on any fluctuations in weight or other life changes that might impact your bust line.

Next step would be experimenting with different sizes until you find one that feels both comfortable and supportive. Remembering how valuable proper fit is will make such an improvement.
