The Bits and Pieces: How to Get a Perfect Fitting Bra

One way to make sure you have perfect fitting clothes is to have a perfect fitting bra. If your bra doesn’t fit correctly, it can cause a top to look completely wrong, but the proper fitting bra can make the same top fit like a dream.

There are two ways to make sure you bra fits correctly. First, you could fit it yourself. The fit is measured in two places, across the torso and across the bust. The measurements here indicate your cup size and number. For example, a 34B has a torso measurement of 34 and a cup size of B. Since I am no expert at measureing bra fits, check out the video below by Expert Village for tips on how to get the perfect fit.

The second way to get a perfect fitting bra is to have a professional measure you. Many department stores, such as JC Penney and Dillards, offer complimentary bra fittings to their customers. These stores often carry the basic sizes and limited styles, but I have always had a great experience with this. If you know off hand that you might have a size beyond average (for example, I am a 34C and can’t find it in any department store), places like Victoria’s Secret often provide complimentary bra fittings. They will even help you adjust the fit of the bra in store to make sure it is perfect if you are comfortable with that.

It’s amazing to think how something as simple as a bra can have such an effect on how an outfit looks. It is important to always wear a bra, no matter what the top. If it is strapless, get a strapless bra. There is a bra for every neckline and back-style, so mauch sure you are properly supported for the best look possible.
