Both will give you a glorious décolleté, but do so in different manners. Padded bras give you extra support and correction. The foamed cups help you frame the shape of your décolleté: from a modest cleavage to a bedazzling sexy one. Unpadded cups, on the other hand, follow the natural shape of your breasts. Soft bras are therefore a perfect pick to add a dash of comfort and support to the natural charm of your breasts.

No. Usually you will need the same size for every bra shape, padded or unpadded.

No. A medium thong has the same size measurement as a medium brief , tanga or shorts. We believe beautifying your bum should be easy.

When you put on a bra, the band size should feel comfortably tight. Be sure that the band size isn’t too loose. You don’t want the band to crawl up, because that will take away all the support. But keep in mind that a bra band that’s too tight is very uncomfortable. So settle on a size that’s tight yet comfortable. The band size is the size measurement of the bra’s band around your torso. To obtain your band size, measure very snugly around your rib cage, just underneath your breasts.

Bra straps are all about balance. First of all, straps are not the ones responsible for upholding your breasts. That is the bra band’s job. To adjust the straps bear in mind that their function is to keep the bra band (or back-panel) on your back horizontal and to keep the cups in place, so they can do their jobs properly. If your straps are too tight, the bra band crawls up on your back and your breasts will lose support. If your straps are too loose, the cups (and thus the desired shape) will collapse. So find a middle way between balance and comfort.

This means you are confronted with ill-fitting cups. You either need to upsize your cup size, choose another bra shape for your breast type, or tighten your shoulder straps a bit.

Stand in front of the mirror. If your breasts are overflowing the cups or your breasts are not properly tucked into the cups, the band is crawling up your back, or the wires aren’t located neatly underneath your breasts, your bra is ill-fitting. Adjust if possible, otherwise choose another size.

No! And that’s okay. There are so many circumstances to think of that will affect the shape of a woman’s body during the years. And thus change your bra size or favourite shape. Think of hormonal changes, weight gane, weight loss, pregnancy etc. Therefore, we advise all women to measure their bra size yearly.

We strongly advise you to shop for the larger breast size. Just simply remember that your larger breast will never fit the cup size of your smaller breast. If necessary you can fill up the cup of the smaller breast with a little bit of foam filling. Also remember that small variations in breast size (or hand size or foot size for that matter) are very common in most women.

A proper fitting bra works for you, instead of against you. The right bra size gives you the right kind of support and helps to prevent back and neck problems (which is of crucial importance for women with larger breasts!). Right fitting also injects you with a natural boost of confidence as it makes you appear slimmer and younger. We’d like to quote Oprah as she started the Bra Revolution: ‘Women of the world, you need to rise up and get a proper bra fitting!'.

Did your bra stay put during the day? No shifting of the cups, wires or backline? When you look into the mirror, do you like what you see? Does your bra actually make a difference when you put it on and does it feel comfortable? The answers to all these questions should be a loud and proud yes!
