After reading about wearing bras backward and upside down to test the band fit, I retested my "too small" bras. Sadly, I could have saved much time and money had I known this earlier. What I thought was overall "too small" was just the cup. There was no need to size up the band. Hindsight is 20/20 ;-) Thankfully, I am still learning :-)

  • I've actually found that more often then not, the larger the breasts, the more the wearer complains about the band being too tight. So whenever I'd ask them how the band fit, it would be level or tight, even when it was technically too large. Almost everyone I've helped with medium to large breasts believe the band is too small, when it turns out the cups are too small. The upside down/backwards test is wonderful! :)

  • Really? Thats weird, I dont have trouble telling the difference at all? Maybe because my boobs are very soft and top-heavy, they just pop over the top and dont really affect the fit of the band?
