The brassiere is a great invention and the first patent was attributed to Mary Phelps Jacob in 1913.
Well she did a great job and we think the bra idea is simply genius. Something great to put the ladies assets where they belong.
But then, if you don't get it right when it comes to fit, it's a disaster. Research says that 85 percent of all women are wearing the wrong bra size, i.e. either the wrong band or the wrong cup.
Wearing the wrong bra is simply a No No. When the bra is wrong, the fashion can't just be right.
Do you have the right bra? Take this self test and be true to yourself.
- Do you have spillovers and is your bra digging at the armpit?
- Does the band ride up at the back and is it loose (because it is loose, you wear your bra on the innermost hook)?
- Does your bra suffer a common problem - wandering straps i.e. the straps can't just stay in place?
- Is your bra cup fabric wrinkled?
- Is the front centre fabric (gore) of your bra squashed or pushed forward?
If you answered Yes to 2 of the above questions and you clearly noticed pinching, pulling and sagging (3 evils that keep your girls from facing north) while standing in front of a mirror, then it's time to get a proper fitting.
