When choosing a bra, it is always advisable to get yourself measured by a specialist. In the UK, Rigby & Pella or Bravissimo are THE places to visit, but you can also visit high street stores, who are often able to carry out a bra fitting.
Many plus size ladies are tempted to go for a bra which is too small, not wanting to emphasize their size. However, this often has the reverse effect by greating the "four boob" effect!
Three tips for choosing a plus size bra:-
- Choose an underwired bra, for extra support and shape
- Remember that the bra should enclose your breasts
- The central part of the bra should sit flat against your chest
Buy a bra which is comfortable on the middle hooks, that way if you change size a little, the bra will still fit.
When choosing a bra, take along a close fitting t-shirt to see what the bra looks like in fitting clothing. Although it may be pretty, you may not want the lace pattern to show through your t-shirt. Also, this helps you see the shape that the bra gives to your breasts.
Don't worry about minimizing your breasts - make the most of them and enjoy them!
