It’s possible that your bra is gaping because the cup size is too large for your breast volume. When the cups are too big, there can be excess fabric that doesn’t sit properly against the skin, causing gaps and wrinkles. Another reason for a gaping bra could be due to the shape of the cups not being compatible with your breast shape. This can result in a lack of fullness and support, leading to gaps and an ill-fitting appearance.
To address this issue, I would highly recommend getting fitted for a new bra to ensure you are wearing the correct size. Our expert fitters have extensive training and experience in accurately measuring your bust and determining which style and size will work best for you. Considering a plunge or demi-cup style may help alleviate any gaping issues as these styles cater more to different breast shapes.
A common misconception about bras is that only adjusting the straps will solve fitting issues like gaping. However, it’s important to understand that proper fit involves multiple factors such as band size, cup shape, and wire placement. Making adjustments solely on the straps may lead to further discomfort or unsatisfactory results.
On less-know fact about bras is that regular wear can cause elastic materials in bras to lose their elasticity over time. This can lead to an improper fit even if it initially seemed perfect when purchased. Knowing this fact is useful because it highlights the importance of regularly replacing your bras based on their lifespan rather than simply relying on visual appearances or how they feel at first wear.
The next step in addressing your concerns about a gaping bra would be to schedule a professional fitting appointment with one of our experienced staff members who specialize in lingerie fittings. By doing so, you’ll receive personalized recommendations based on accurate measurements and extensive knowledge of our product offerings which will help resolve any fit issues you may be experiencing.
