Bra Problems? We Can help
Is your bra old? Is it really uncomfortable? I'm Curvy Couture's Bra Fit Expert (with over a decade of experience) and I have solutions to your bra problems. Here to help you have a pain-free experience when wearing bras.
Here's my bra problem checklist, ask yourself these questions honestly:
-
Check in with the band of your bra. Is it riding up your back?
-
If it is & you also notice the middle of your back hurting, you most likely need a smaller band size.
(Quick note: most of us are wearing too big of a band & too small of a cup) - 85% of the support in a bra comes from the band, so it's time to remeasure that ribcage to see what band size you should be wearing.
- Follow my "How To Measure Yourself For A Bra At Home" video guide as the best next step. Another option is visiting your local bra boutique for a bra fitting. Find one near you here.
- Get re-measured every 9-12 months if possible, just to check in!
- Now you know the right size to wear, plan on having 3-4 styles to rotate. It's important to not wear the same bra everyday.
- Lastly, hand wash & line dry your bras. You're throwing $ away by putting them in the washer/dryer.
