Bra fit problems & solutions
Band digging in?
-
Choose a style with a wider band or increase band size (cross sizing:
i.e.: 42DDD to 44DD)
Bustline sagging?
- Choose a style with more support
- Try shortening the straps
- Select bras with a more rigid fabric
Back riding up?
- Adjust hook & eye closure to tighten the band
- Loosen straps
- Try a smaller band size
Straps digging in?
- Try loosening the straps
- Choose a style with wider or padded straps
- Choose a style which offers more support, as support should come from the band, not the straps
Cups overflowing?
- Increase cup size
(i.e. 42C to 42D) - Increase band size
(i.e. 40D to 42D) - Or increase both
