Avoiding Common Bra Mistakes
Avoiding Common Bra Mistakes
August 28, 2006 -
Bras are perhaps the most important piece of a woman’s wardrobe. When properly fitted, a bra can enhance the female shape, lifting and accentuating a woman’s curves. However, when a bra does not fit properly, it can flatten the breasts, making them look heavier and less attractive.
Unfortunately, many women regard bras as one the more inconsequential pieces of their wardrobe - a fact that leads to a number of common bra mistakes. Some women wear the same bra for years, despite changes in breast size. Others fail to take into consideration the fact that bra sizes vary according to manufacturer and style.
Are You Wearing The Right Bra?
The following are signs that you’re not getting the support you need from you’re current bra:
When you remove your bra, there are red marks and indentations in the place of the shoulder straps.
The bra band sits too high on your back.
You feel tightness and discomfort when you wear your bra.
Your breasts are spilling out of the sides when they should sit entirely inside the cup.
Bra lines and lumps are visible through your shirts.
To avoid these and other common bra mistakes, you should make sure to get a proper fitting from a trained expert who will take your measurements and help you find the best bra for you size and shape.
A proper bra fitting is especially crucial for those who have gained or lost significant amounts of weight, or who have recently had a breast procedure.
