How can you know if your bra is the right size for you?

Question

should the bra cover your entire boob or is it okay for some to hang out at the top? i know i already asked this questions but i need different opinions i dont want to be wearing the wrong bra for my b***s!?

Answer 1

Depends on what you mean by 'hang out' and what you're looking for as far as the 'right bra'.

As far as fit goes, there are several basic guidelines:

- when you lean over, your b*****s should comfortably fill the cup

- you should easily be able to fit two fingers between your body and shoulder straps as well as between your back and the closure (there should never be any red marks/ indents left in your shoulders/back due to tightness)

You should also keep in mind what clothes your bra will be under.  Lacy bras often look weird and lumpy under form-fitting clothes; bright-colored or dark bras are easily seen under white/light-colored clothes.

As for the hanging out at the top: most bra-fitters would probably give an emphatic 'no' to that question, but if it doesn't look like they're getting squeezed out and you're not headed to a formal occasion, then letting the girls show their curves a little is fine!  :)

If you really can't figure it out, go to Victoria's Secret or the bra section at a department store and they can measure you and figure out the size for you.

Answer 3

You shouldn't be spilling over the top, for sure. Whether or not more of your breast is exposed depends on the cut of the bra. Full coverage obviously covers more than a demi bra would.

A good way to know if a bra fits you correctly is to be fitted by a professional. They can tell you what size and style will be best for your body. I highly recommend this. You might be surprised to find out you're a different size than you thought!

Answer 5

If you are bulging out of the cups, you need a bigger cup size, even if it's a push-up bra. Don't make the mistake of increasing the band size instead.

The correct band size should be the smallest that you can comfortably fasten, so keep trying smaller and smaller sizes until you physically cannot fasten it, then you know that the next size up is the right one. You should be able to run your fingers around under the edge of the band, but you should not be able to pull it out from your chest by more than a couple of inches at the front, or 2 or 3 inches at the back.

Cup sizes are in proportion to the band size, so for example a 32C is one cup size smaller than a 34C, as well as being one band size smaller. For every band that you go down, you need to go up one cup in order to stay the same size, and then once you have found the right band size you can increase the cup again to take care of that bulging problem.

Gotta measure your chest have a professional bra shop measure you like victoria secret. You should go in there and ask them to measure you and look around for the right bra. If they tend to be expensive for you then just ask them to measure you and pretend to shop around but dont buy just say I may be back later. Its honesty. Yeah i know though its sooo hard to find one or two that actually fit and wont rip when you wash them.!
