1.Wrong size

A huge percentage of women are wearing the wrong sized bra. It is our recommendation to get correctly fitted at a Lingerie boutique or Department store. A bra that is the incorrect size will not properly support you and could result in long-term sagging and or ligament damage.

2.Sacrificing quality for price

Invest in bras that are made from quality fabrics and trims. It is noticeable at first glance if a product is well made. The elastics should be firm and should not have too much give. A good quality bra will often have multiple layers and feel substantial to touch.Cheaper bras are made from inferior fabrics and trims. These bras will often lose their elasticity and ability to support after a few washes. Purchasing quality should mean that you would feel more comfortable and supported for longer.

3.Purchasing the incorrect style for your body shape

Not all bra styles will suit every woman. Our bodies are all different including our breast shape and form.

• Plunge bras are wonderful for a smaller busted woman who tends to be heavier at the base of the breast.
• Balcony styled bras are good for women who have a rounder more even weight distribution in the breast.
• Full coverage bras are ideal for women who are larger in the bust. The full cups are designed to cover the entire breast area resulting in more support and a secure fit.

4.The back band is too big

This is one of the most common mistakes. The back band of the bra should fit firmly and parallel across the back. It should not rid up or feel too loose. Should the back band start to feel loose when done up on the tightest hook. It is time to throw it away and purchase a new one.

5.Not getting fitted

Going and getting fitted at your local bra boutique or Department store is worth the effort. A bra fitter is professionally trained and will access your body type/shape and provide you with options they have available.Buying bras can often be a frustrating experience. Going to professionals cuts out all of the frustration leaving the customer happy and supported.
