Bra Cups, Bands and Strap Fit
There are three primary components of bra sizes: the bra cup size, the band size and the strap fit. They’re also critical indicators of a proper fitting bra.
Bra Sizing FAQs
Explanation: They’re being pulled away from your body because the bra cup cannot lay flush.
Explanation: Are your straps cranked super tight? Your band and cup aren’t holding on (and holding up), so the straps are carrying too much weight.
Explanation: A band that has room to move is too large. That too-large band may be overcompensating for a too-small cup.
Explanation: If the cup cannot sit flush against the body, it will buckle to try to help fill the space. A lesser coverage style may work if it is very minor. Otherwise, you may need to size down..
Explanation: the cups aren’t overflowing out of the sides or over the top, so it may appear that the bra fits. However, if the center where the cups meet does not touch the body, that means the breast tissue is pushing away.
Explanation: one possibility is the wire is unable to properly cup the underside the breast and is poking because it’s too small. On the other hand, a too-large copy gives the wire the ability to move, which can also cause poking.
