How To Find Your Perfect Bra Size (+ 3 Essential Bras You Need)
We’ve all been there. You walk in the door after work, drop your keys, kick off your shoes and whip off your bra—and not always in that order!
After more than 150 years of bra design, why are we still struggling with gaping cups, slipping straps, pinching bands and sagging underwire? Well, a lot of it has to do with fit and fabric; not all bras are created equal. Ill-fitting bras are uncomfortable at best, and downright painful at worst, and when you’re constantly adjusting straps, cups and bands, your confidence can take a nosedive. Thankfully, the experts at Canadian lingerie, swimwear and loungewear company la Vie en Rose have made it their mission to provide functional yet fashionable essential lingerie that supports, smooths and enhances your natural silhouette—no stress required.
The specialists at la Vie en Rose are trained to correctly measure, fit and fine-tune, helping you find the intimate apparel that meets your needs, from bralettes, push-ups and lightly lined demis to nursing bras and mastectomy options. They get it, and they get you, so you know you’re in good hands. With real-life styles, sizes and colours that flatter and feel good on every body type, you’re guaranteed a more comfortable, self-assured you. Visit a la Vie en Rose store near you to get your measurements taken and make bra shopping something you can actually look forward to.
How to find your perfect bra size
1. The right size cups are just big enough to contain and support the entire bust— no cutting or digging and no leftover empty spaces. Bend forward slightly and place breasts in cups as deep as possible. Make sure the straps are properly adjusted. Your bust should fill the cups without spilling over.
2. Properly adjusted straps should sit straight, stay in place and not dig into the shoulders. If they constantly slide off, they need tightening, or the bra has stretched out and it’s time to visit the experts!
3. The proper size band should sit straight and not ride up your back or dig in on the sides. You should be able to comfortably slide two fingers underneath the band when the clasp is closed on the middle setting.
4. Pair your bra with matching panties! La Vie en Rose always has a matching set. Even if no one else but you knows, wearing a perfectly paired bra and panty feels extra special.
