Understanding Bra Sizing
Bra sizing consists of two main components: the band size (the number) and the cup size (the letter). These two factors work together to provide the best fit.
- Band Size: The measurement around your ribcage, just under your bust.
- Cup Size: The difference between your bust measurement and your band measurement.
A correct bra size offers the right support and enhances your natural shape. Many women wear the wrong size because they don’t measure themselves accurately or misunderstand how bra sizes work.
Common Bra Sizing Mistakes to Avoid
1. Measuring Incorrectly
One of the biggest mistakes women make is not measuring themselves properly. Some rely on old measurements or assume their size without checking. Since body shapes change due to weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or lifestyle changes, it’s essential to measure regularly.
How to Avoid It:
- Use a measuring tape to check your band and bust size every few months.
- Measure yourself while wearing a non-padded bra for accuracy.
- Stand straight and ensure the measuring tape is snug but not too tight.
2. Choosing the Wrong Band Size
Your band provides most of the support in a bra, so getting it wrong can lead to an uncomfortable fit. A band that’s too tight can cause skin irritation, while a loose band won’t give the support needed.
How to Avoid It:
- If your band rides up your back, it’s too loose go down a size.
- If it digs into your skin, it’s too tight go up a size.
- You should be able to fit two fingers under the band comfortably.
3. Ignoring the Cup Size
Many women wear a cup that’s too small or too big, leading to spillage or gaps. If your bust spills over the cup or you see wrinkles in the fabric, you’re not in the right size.
How to Avoid It:
- If your bust overflows, go one cup size up.
- If there’s extra space, go one cup size down.
- The cups should fully enclose your breasts without pressing too hard.
4. Overlooking the Bra Style Impact
Not all bras fit the same way, even if they are labeled as the same size. Different styles offer different levels of coverage and support.
How to Avoid It:
- Choose a style that suits your body shape and needs.
- If switching styles, try different cup and band combinations to find the right fit.
- Check the fit of your Ecstasy Everyday Bra to ensure it provides the right support.
5. Not Adjusting the Straps Properly
Loose straps mean no support, while overly tight straps can cause shoulder pain. Straps should provide lift but shouldn’t be doing all the work—your band should offer most of the support.
How to Avoid It:
- Adjust straps so they sit comfortably on your shoulders.
- If straps keep slipping, they may be too loose or the band is too big.
- If they dig in, loosen them slightly to avoid pressure marks.

FAQs
1. How often should I measure my bra size?
Your body changes over time, so it’s best to measure every six months or when you notice your bra no longer fits well.
2. Why does my bra band ride up?
If your bra band rides up your back, it’s likely too loose. Try a smaller band size while adjusting the cup size accordingly.
3. What should I do if my straps keep falling?
Loose straps usually mean your band is too big or the straps need adjusting. Tighten them slightly or consider a smaller band size.
4. How do I know if my cup size is too small?
If your breasts spill out from the top or sides, your cup size is too small. Try going up one cup size for a better fit.
