How difficult is it for you to find a comfortable, well-fitting bra?

I have no need for bras

Super easy, I can find my size at any mainstream clothing store

Pretty easy, I can find them at certain mainstream stores

I have to hunt a bit, but I can usually find them

Mainstream stores don't have them, I have to go to specialty stores (in person)

Physical stores don't have my size, but I can get them online pretty easily

I can find them online with enough effort

I've only ever found one or two that truly fit

I've never found a bra that actually fit me

Other

I only wear sports bras/binders/never wear bras/don't know my size

I've been rather passionate about education around bra-fitting for many years now. It's something that piqued my interest after discovering that much of what we are told about bra sizing is false, bolstered by an industry that is slow or unwilling to change. For me, properly fitted bras is a matter of quality of life and no one should have to feel their body is "wrong" when it comes to wearing an (often) necessary garment.

I created an illustrated guide to bra sizing, currently available for sale as a pdf here: https://gumroad.com/l/EbQIb

(hard copies, hopefully coming soon!)

As always, if you're looking for basic info or support this is by far not the only way to get it -- anyone is welcome to message me for some basic resources that are free on the internet. And/or for me to personally help fit you, even from afar. My hope in creating the book was to consolidate and nicely show off the most salient 101 info around bra-fitting without having to dig too much.

Forget Everything You Think You Know About Bras

Do you whip off your bra immediately when you get home?

Does your bra chafe, poke, or shift uncomfortably throughout the day?

Do you feel like the only bras available to you are matronly beige monstrosities?

Does every bra you try on seem too big or ride up your back?

Does the term “a comfortable bra” sound like an oxymoron, something only possible in a fantasy?

Have you been fitted by professionals and felt that there must something wrong with your body, because nothing seems to fit?

hey followers what’s a good place to buy a swimsuit with a bra in it? a full-cup bra with a closure, like torrid puts in their suits but available in different cup sizes. i need like a 38H or 40G. preferably a one-piece but i can live with a tankini if it’s not corny, and i don't much care for them swimsuits that look like cocktail dresses

tell me your secrets!

Reasons why the calculator may not be accurate: whilst we've perfected it as best as we can, with 6 different measurements and special algorithms, measurements can only give an approximation, a ballpark figure, a place to start. #brafitting #brafit #brasize #brasizecalculator #abrathatfits #bracalculator
