Triumph Released Findings On Women and Their Bras

Well the results are out for the Triumph Shape Debate and the results only confirm what most of us big bra ladies already know. So what did our big bra manufacturing friend find out in their survey of over 5000 women around the globe?

The study by COIN for Triumph International drives home the fact that breast and bodies are always on women’s minds. The survey gave a great insight into how us women perceive our body image and how our culture, habits and social normality’s shape our attitudes towards underwear.

One of the interesting facts in the survey which I am sure that most of you already know, but now it is proven that the average women today is closer to a size 16 than a size 12, and the most common bought bra size in the UK is a DD! That is a pretty big bra if you ask me.

The studies showed that the body shape or Marilyn Monroe and Sophia Loren the hourglass figure is dying out and modern women’s bodies are now becoming increasingly apple-shape.

For centuries women with thin waists and curvy figures have been the goddess of perfection in men’s eyes. Half of the British people surveyed still think that the hourglass figure is the most attractive. The increasing apple shaped figures (weight carried around the middle) is ranking behind Pear-shaped women (Larger hips and Thighs), rectangular (no curves) and boyish figures. This is interesting to note since the apple shaped figure is on the rise around the world.

The average British women’s chest  and hips are 4cm larger than the ladies back in the 1950’s , this is further confirmed by the release of Panache KK harmony big bra in may to cope with increasing bust sizes in women. (visit full article here on the Harmony Big Bra).Form the 1950’s our weight has increase from 62Kg to 65Kg and we are not 5 cm taller than we where in the 1950’s.

More than 3/4 of British women feel that having a beautiful, sexy bust is important (77%) despot eight out of ten women (78%) saying they have problems with their breasts. I thought that point was interesting the survey as I know that on average it was proven that every eight out of ten women wear the wrong size bra. I wonder if that is the reason why that such a large pre-portion of women are having problems with their breasts.

In japan almost all bras are padded because it is considered indecent or taboo in some parts of Japan to have a nipple show through!

69% of Italian women will wear a sexy bra when others can admire it.

British women will wear a bra out of social norm and habit, but don’t wear underwear as a major factor in improved physical appearance as compared to France wear the main reason for wearing a bra is to receive compliments.

in China surprisingly to me 99% of women consider a beautiful busts to be the highest importance overall!

Well ladies what do you think of the results? Do you think that your bust size is larger than that of your mother or grand mother? or is your body more a apple-shape? or maybe you have problems with your breasts?

I would love to hear your feedback and what your think about the survey

Hope you enjoyed the article on Triumph’s survey part 1, stay tuned for Triumph launches Its Shape and Bra Debate! part 2 soon

The facts are true, proven, straightforward and simple. Most women these days wear bras and 80% of busty women are wearing the wrong big bra! Big bras are used and designed to provide support, structure, comfort, definition, shape and comfort it no wonder why for many women that the bra has become a staple clothing item in the modern days. What a shame it causes so many busty women such pain and aggravation because they just have not selected the right big bra for them.

The modern brassier for busty women has come so far from the flattening designed corsets designed to flatten your chests instead of exuberate it. Now you can get big bras that use lighter material for comfort and are actually designed for the body not just as a product that the company things would fit real women!

Given the amount of advancements in the big bra industry, many women would be surprised to learn that with 80%of women wearing an ill –fitting bra that it may be impacting their daily health. No it’s not the next cancer-causing agent. It is more those annoying niggling pains like headaches, sore arms, tight necks and sore backs. The sort of problems that wear women down over time especially those with big bras in which the effects are magnified.

So you are thing surely my little it bitty bra cannot be responsible for all these annoying pains to my daily health? In theory no it’s not, the fault is with the big bras that you, our friends and me buy. We create the problem by buying the wrong big bras for your body type. It’s like wearing pants that don’t fit it’s not going to work well and some buttons are going to be going flying.

The biggest mistake women make when purchasing a new big bra is they think that the bra works buy providing the support from the straps over your shoulders. NO NO NO!!!! and NO. The support of a big bra comes from the band underneath the base of your breasts and it is designed to give 80-90% of the support to the breasts with the straps, seams and cup taking the remainder 10-20% of the weight.

So what happens if my big bra is not designed for my body type?  And 80-90% of my your breast weight is being supported by the straps? Well think about a 4-hour full out working session in the gym for your arms, shoulders, chest and abdominals. This is pretty much what you are doing to your body every day over and over again. Don’t get me wrong we all need to exercise but this is bad exercise, as it has no rest period for the body to recover. Add a couple teaspoons of stress from daily life and you have got the perfect medication for headaches, neck tightness, sore back, sore arms, sore shoulder and heavy breathing. As you can see it can seriously provide a hindrance to enjoying your day.

While most busty women tend to wear big bras that are simply just not big enough for them other women’s whose busts are not as large tend to wear bra that are too big for them. Which one are you??? Hmmm.

I hope today’s article opened your eyes to the affect that good fitting and bad fitting bra’s can have an effect on your daily health.

Don’t forget to comment and tell me your thoughts I love reading what you have to say.

Have a great day

Big bra fitting for busty women a simple 3 measurement way

Women trying to fit yourself for a big bra can be a complete and utter nightmare, especially reading information over the internet it is so conflicting some people say measure here and there and others tell you don’t bother measuring for big bras it’s a waste of time. No wonder why you are so confused I would be as well. So I hope this is a nice short guide that will help to give you a rather accurate guide to your big bra size.

I personally like to have information in which I can base my judgement upon and use it as a benchmark to measure against and then take a holistic approach by combining the information with trial and error until I find the big bra that is right for me.

Big Bras and how to measure yourself for them;

To do this exercise it is easier if you have a good friend or relative to help you accurately take the measurements to the best of your ability.

1. Bust measurement (cup)

Measure the length of your bust by running the tap around the apex of the breast (highest point of the breast, normally the nipple) in a vertical line around the body ensuring that you have the apex of the breasts underneath the tape measure. This measurement is know as the bust

2. Band measurement (back size 1 or below bust)

This measurement is the measurement just at the bas of the breast, just like doing the bust make sure the tape lines up under the breasts and goes around in a straight vertical line

3. Band measurement 2 (back size 2 or above bust)

This measurement is exactly the same at the first band measurement just you are doing it at the top of the breast (where your breasts start) instead of at the base of the breasts. Taking this 2^nd measurement gives you a more accurate estimation at your band size.

Using these 3 measurements you can put them into a big bra size calculator at Big Bra 4 U to find out reasonably accurately what you can expect your big bra size to be. (Still in development and not available yet)

Now like I said before don’t just use the measurements as the be all end all indicator of what size your bust is and what big bra you will need. Even though it is normally quite accurate go test out some bra’s first from a store to ensure you have the right size and if you want to save some money order them online. Often big bras are easier to find in color and styles that most women want on the internet at places such as where you are now Big Bra 4 U where they focus exclusively on big bras for busty women only.

Well I hope you enjoyed today’s article about the best way to fit for a big bra and I hope to hear about your bra fitting stories in the comments area.

Have a great day

Big bras are not cheap and often cost a lot of money to get  good quality big bras that fit your body type. So you wouldn’t you want to make them last as long as you possibly can right!

Proper washing of big bras really adds to it’s life span and will make it last longer if you just take some time to give your precious big bras some TLC (tender loving care) like they do to your precious breasts. Here are some great tips I have picked up from reading around and looking at labels on big bras as to extend the life and newness of your big bra;

1. What is your big bra made of?

Big bras are made of many different compositions of materials, pretty much in every big bra there is a form of plastic and these can deteriorate due to heat. Big bras especially those with plastics like polyester should not be dried at high temperatures or in the dryer or in direct sunlight. Instead let them dry on an indoor clothes rack

2. Choose a cleaning method

Can you afford to wash all your big bras by hand after every time you wear them? Maybe if you get into a cycle but if you are like my friends and I we have very busy and frantic lifestyle where there is no spare time. So hand washing is just not an option, even though lace bras should always be washed by hand no mater what. Hand washing does lead to continued firmness in the cups and greater durability and less stretching of the plastics components of a big bra during washing. However it is possible to wash your big bra on a gentle cycle using a bra bag or what I think looks pretty nifty is what is know as the brababy (http://www.gadgetspage.com/misc/safely-wash-your-bra-with-brababy.html) Although I suspect I am too lazy to use it but you may not be. Also with a bra bag the other clothes and washing machine will squash the bra in every possible way adding more wear and tear to the big bras especially.

3. What washing powder should I use?

It is not recommended to use everyday washing powder by manufacturers but honestly who really has the time to put on 2 loads of washing when they could just put on one. I know I am lazy but if this interests you, most manufactures advise the use of hand washing soap or shampoo when washing your big bras as the chemicals are not as harsh on the bra as those designed to get dirt and grime out of clothes.

There are my 3 tips on how to extend the lifespan of your bra buy correct washing techniques. If you are looking for things such as the brababy or a mesh bra bag visit bigbras4u.com where they supply big bra necessity’s to help extend the life of your big bras.

Also don’t forget to leave your comments on techniques or ways you have found effective to maintain the lifespan of your gorgeous big bras. Be interesting to see what some women do with their big bras

Have a great day

Finding the right fit when buying a big bra is an adventure in itself. The process can also be very expensive especially if you buy the wrong size and have to buy again and again and again until you find something that actually fits and is comfortable only waiting to do it all over again in another 6 months. Here are a list of 7 things you can look for in big bras to avoid the nightmare of buying the wrong bra and making it a fun, sexy and friendly experience to go big bra shopping either offline or online.

1. Learning how to wear a big bra

The first thing to do is look at how you currently wear your big bra is the back band vertical all the way around? Is your band located just under the base of the breasts. If so great you are wearing your bra correctly if not you have better adjust your bra so you know where to place your big bra when you go shopping to get maximum benefit from the big bra designs.

2. Does the big bra sit flat on your chest?

In between the breasts at the bottom of the cleavage is almost the bottom of a bone called the sternum. The band that joins the two cups together needs to be sitting flat on the sternum to ensures that the idea of the big bra working from bottom up, is actually able to perform it’s job to support the breasts. If it is off the sternum this means that your big bra size is too small and you need to go bigger!

3. Evaluating the cup size

Be honest with yourself, if your breasts are spilling out of the cup it is obvious that the big bra is too small for you no matter how sexy and comfortable it is. If there are wrinkles or grooves in the bra and gaps between your breasts and the cup this means that the big bra is simply just too big and you will need to go down some sizes to find the bra with the cup for you.

4. Finger test

The bra is designed to work from the bottom up not from the top down like most women assume. This is vitally important for busty women to understand when buying a big bra that it does not need to suffocate you. Instead you should be able to easily run your finger under the bottom band of the bra and still have some slight resistance to movement of the finger. If you don’t the band is either too tight or not tight enough.

5. The strapless test

Try the straps on for about 10-20mins then pull the straps off to the side and see if you have any red marks where the straps where. If you do the straps are providing too much support and need to be loosen. Loosen the straps and see if the bra still feels the same.

6. The Underwire POKE

The underwire is a popular choice among busty women as it provides more support in their big bras however every women hates getting the poke from the underwire. To ensure this does not happen make sure the underwire sits just under the base of the breast and runs smoothly under the armpit towards the back If it pokes the inside of your arm it’s too small, if it pokes up in the arm pit your big bra is to large. Adjust your size accordingly and try again.

7. The sitting test;

Try sitting down and performing activates like typing or what you might do at work, does the bra feel much different is it still comfortable. If it’s uncomfortable look around for another one.

A good place to look for a range of big bra styles is right where you are now Big Bra 4 U where we try to offer a range of big bra’s for busty ladies exclusively.

I hope you enjoyed today’s article about 7 things to look for in a big bra when you go shopping. Tell us what else you look for and why, or how this guide helped you, love to hear your feedback

Yesterday I began my little rant on things that busty ladies should be looking for when buying big bras whether it be online or offline in a sexy lingerie store it is important that ladies with larger busts get comfortable, supportive and sexy big bras that they love!

So I will continue from where we left off yesterday from my point about the see-saw affect of the band in big bras.

If you missed the previous article you can visit it here Things to look for in big bras Part 1

6. Do you like the colour of the bra and they style?

Don’t buy a bra if it is not the perfect fit and you don’t like it, you will always never want to wear it because you just don’t like it. Even though you know it might be the best bra for you, look around online as well. There is over 1000+ big bras on Big Bra 4 U alone. Once you find your size in a manufacturer (brand) you like, it will be easier to find the same big bra at a cheaper price for the same quality online. A great example is the website you are currently on Big Bra 4 U a website where we focus on sourcing the best quality big bras for busty women exclusively!

7. Do they stock more big bras like this one in a range of style and colours

It is fantastic when you find your first sexy, comfortable and supportive big bra but can you find more in the same line or other lines that are just as good? You need at least 7 big bras to get you through a week. Why Is this Katie you ask? Well Because bras should never, and I mean never be worn for consecutive days as it causes the lycra in big bras especially to stretch and it takes 24 hours for the lycra to cool down and return back to its original shape.

8. Does your nipple sit in the middle of the cup?

A good bra should be designed so that the apex which is normally your nipple sits in the middle of the cup. This means that the weight of the breast is distributed evenly around the cup and underwire. This is important as it helps to prevent the uncomfortable feeling of a bra that digs into you. It’s not only because you are wearing a small bra, the problem of an underwire poking can be because your breast are not located in the bra properly.

9. A Big Bra is like your best girlfriend it will be with you everyday!

Big bras are designed for busty women because they require more support and comfort, because of the more rigid materials required in the big bra to give the support busty ladies need. When you are purchasing a big bra for yourself or that someone special think about it as you are going or they are going to be wearing this bra for at least 6 months. Ask yourself Is it really worth what I am paying for it and will I or my friend be happy with the bra I have choosen for myself or my friend?

10. Health benefits of a proper fitting big bra

Here is my final thing to look for. Well really it is more of a reason to ensure you purchase a proper fitting big bra. Is simply because of the health benefits and psychological benefits it brings women. A well made big bra will help to alleviate back  and shoulder pain which is common in busty women due to poor bra fitting and also to flatten out the stomach a little as it encourages good posture as it pulls the back in slightly, which sub-conciously works to straighten your back to help use the bra as a support structure for the breasts.

Well I hope you enjoyed part 2 of buying a big bra- things to look for in big bras. If you are still lost for finding a good supportive big bra for yourself or someone else that you think could do with a helpful uplifting. Visit the Big Bra 4 U Home page.

Have a fantastic day and I hope to hear about your bra buying journeys and what you have to share with other busty ladies.

New post: Buying a big bra? Things to Look For in Big Bras Part 2 http://bit.ly/dgJFVS

A new post http://bit.ly/djF80m Big Bra 4 U

Purchasing big bra’s has starting to become easier than ever before. There are many choices available in the big bra range. Women looking for things like DDD cups will find many ways to optimize their comfort, fashion and fit that is suitable to them. Whether you shop online or in a store for your big bras these are some things to look for in a good quality big bra.

1. Do you have a problem doing up your big bra?

There are bras that now close at the front for those women that find it difficult to reach around their back to do up the bra for whatever reason it may be. There has also been recent developments in the fastening accessory’s like the magsnap which converts the hook on a bra to a magnetic closure style ( I am not sure how secure it would be however, have to try it out when it comes out later this year)

2. What clothes will you be wearing over your big bra?

This is really important, even though you want to add structure and support to the breasts vertical seam big bras can be seen through tight or loose tops.  Seamless big bras are smooth and give natural shaping to the breasts and lets clothes flow over the top without exposing the outline of the bra. Manufacturers now days are using satin, cotton and sometimes even leather as more common factors in big bras to make them feel more luxurious and flattering. The cotton also helps to give comfort around the underwire in bra ranges such as the alergo big bra range.

3. Does the big bra support from the bottom up instead of top down?

Big bras are designed so that the band takes 90% of the support while the straps give the remaining 10% of support to the breasts. Vertical seams are used to mould the breast so it fills out the front of the cup instead of the side. Underwire is great when you get a big bra that actually properly fits you otherwise it is just plain uncomfortable. Make sure that the band is sitting flat against your skin under your breast, this is where the underwire should be. The underwire gives definition and support to the breasts. Just like corsets are designed to have bone to provide shape and support this is the same idea given to the underwire

4. Sizing- why cant big bras just be a uniformed size across all manufacturers?

Why is it to hard I ask? Who knows what manufacturers of big bras are thinking when they make womens choices in big bras all that much harder when cup and band size fluctuate between manufacturers and even in their own lines.

5. Does the band of my big bra sit in the same spot on the front of my chest as it does on the back?

If your bra is not sitting in the same place at the front of your body as it is at the back of your body. This means that your band is too large as the breasts are dropping pulling the back of the bra up towards your shoulders. This is called the see-saw affect.

Well I hope you enjoyed  part 1 of things to look for when buying big bras I will hopefully have part 2 up tommorow once I make a few more edits on the piece. Till then have a lovely day busty ladies!

Post Edited: The top 10 mistakes made by women with bigger busts when buying big bras Part 1 http://bit.ly/d557Lh

No matter what kind of women you are, you always need a new bra every 6-8 months, maybe even sooner depending on how … http://scr.bi/bNv3eL

New post: Big Bra Care tips For Larger Women who Love Their Big Bras http://bit.ly/aQGbOG

It does not matter if you and your big bra are best friends or if you have no care for your big bra’s at all here are some great tips to keep your big bra’s in shape, last longer and keep their support and comfort level for as long as possible.

Big Bra Care tip #1: Switch your bras every day

Avoid wearing the same bra for consecutive days. Your body radiates heat and most big bra’s are designed with some form of lycra involved and unfortunately for busty ladies lycra is not the biggest fan of heat! It causes the bra to stretch and deform. I am sure your big bra is big enough already without getting even bigger! So if you wear your bra for consecutive days you can understand that it is going to deteriorate at a faster rate. To look after your most treasured big bras give them a 24-hour cool off period for the lycra in the bra to recover. And return back to its original shape, and gain it’s strength back.

Big Bra Care tip #2: Store your Bras Properly

It is a fantastic idea if you just dedicate a draw to delicate lingerie like your favourite big bras. If you place your most prized lingerie with other clothing items it often results in tossing of your big bras around the chest of draws in a frantic rush to find the clothes you need because you are running late for that important date, etc. Storing with other clothes will cause your big bra’s to wear and tear at a faster rate because hooks will snap and some other fabrics cause pilling and can tear your big bra. If you want to be organised you can dedicate a draw to your prized big bras and another for your sexy underwear. Personally I buy bra boxes from Amazon.com to organise my big bras. The Extendables Bra Box

Big bra Care Tip #3: Washing your Big Bra’s

If you can afford the time to wash your big bras by hand you should, avoid using the washing machine if possible and I know this is not possible in most of women’s busy schedules and is just another chore to the pile you already have. If you can wash by hand use a delicate soda based fabric wash such as detergent in cold water. Even mild shampoo or hand soap is fine to use. If you don’t have the time to wash your gorgeous big bras by hand and just have to use the washing machine. Place the bra in a washing bag and run through a gentle cycle with other clothing. The washing bag prevents your big bras from getting ripped and torn and miss-shaped in the washing machine. However washing your bra by hand will make it last longer than washing it in the washing machine.

Big Bra Care Tip #4: Drying Bra’s The safe way

Drying bra’s in a tumble dryer is probably the best way to ruin your expensive big bras. It is a definite no, no placing your big bras in the dryer. As heat and tumbling ruins the fabric, underwire, seams, cups and padding. All the things you need to support your large breasts. Besides ruining your big bra, the bra can also ruin other clothes especially if an underwire becomes exposed or a hook catches on another piece of clothing. If you don’t want your big bras to lose their shape early or need to be replaced every month, just air dry them by hanging on a clothes line by one end of the strap.

I hope today’s article gave you some helpful suggestions about ways to protect and look after your big bra’s add your own hints and tips as well and share them with other busty women. Until next article have a great day!

Having large breasts can have its problems. Especially if you don’t have the frame to support them, and then the social life of men addressing your chest as a separate person!

For some women, having large breasts can quickly become a burden to wear , rather than an asset to appreciate. If you are one of these women suffering from the burden of large breasts here are a few tips and tricks for you to boost your confidence and reduce the burden of being more busty.

#1 Investing in good quality big bras designed for busty women!

Invest in good quality big bras, let me say that again invest in GOOD QUALITY big bras! I cannot stress this point enough. Your breasts (no matter how much of a burden they are) will be with you for life and you need to look after them.  It takes a serious big bra to be able to define, support and give comfort to large breasts. Forget small strap that just lay over your shoulders and forget the idea of getting a bra without underwire, as these will cause more problems than good.

Did you know that the band (bottom part of the bra) actually supports 90% of your breast and the rest of the bra only support 10%. This is why it is important to have underwire in your bra’s and if you are one of those women that say underwire is uncomfortable. You have not worn a properly fitted underwire big bra! Don’t forget the 10-90 ratio it really helps you out when you go looking for a nice big bra.

#2 wear V necks and round neck tops

This helps so that you are not full out displaying your breasts but your not also covering them up so much that they still seem somewhat larger than normal. It may not reduce a great deal (like a whole cup size) but every little bit helps.

#3 Exercsing & Bouncing Bra’s

It is almost obvious that you should be wearing a big sports bra. The ideal sport bra for busty women is one that creates an x over the upper back and has good support around under the breast (remember this is where 90% of the bra’s support comes from). Stay away for bras that have been designed for smaller women as they will only cause brusining and tearing in the breast and no women wants that.

#4 Did I mention buying a quality big bra that has been designed for busty women?

I did, that’s great if you take anything from this article it is that no matter if you find your breasts a burden or a wonderful asset. Your greatest ally in battle to overcoming the problems from large breast is a good quality big bra that supports, structures and give definition to the breasts all at once.

I hope todays hint and tips about busty women and big bras helped out and please leave a comment if you would like me to write about something or answer a question I would love to help.

There are many benefical health reasons for having a properly fitted big bra, especially when you are a well endowed women! So why are still 80% of women in the world still wearing the wrong bra? I wish I knew the answer!

By any stretch of the imagination this is why it is important larger ladies get professional fitted by someone specialising in big bras and their styles.

The Reason’s for a Good fitting big bra’s:

Women with large breasts will often suffer from back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain and brusing from an ill-fitting bra. When buying a big bra look for a strong and steardy band with strong clasps, vertical seams (if available), adequent padding around the underwire and thicker style straps, to help lift the breasts.

The most important part of the bra for any big bra is to understand that the band according to scientists in America gives a bra 90% of the full bras support for the breasts.

Quick Tip for Caring For your Big Bra

The best way when buying a bra to make it last a little longer is to ensure that you use the furthest hook, this is so that as the bra goes through everyday washing wear and tear causing it to stretch you can pull the bra tighter to give it that snugg feeling again.

New post: Big Bras The Problems and Need for a Good Fitted Big Bra http://bit.ly/c4fl5Y

A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… you know how it goes. There used to be a time when women with a larger than average bust had problems finding a decent or even  sexy looking big bras. Thankfully those day are eventually coming to an end as designers and retailers notice that the average bra size for women all over the world is getting bigger and bigger every year.

You can almost say goodbye to the days of  looking for a nice, supportive and sexy big bra  as a chore like cleaning the house or cooking dinner. There are so many styles and colours to choose from these days when looking for a big bra. The only problem you may find when looking for a big bra is just selecting one!

Getting Fitted for a big bra

If you where to look in the mirror right at this very moment with your  big bra (if you have one on) you currently have on, what would you change about it, what do you like about it. Do your breasts seem to sneak out the top or sides of the bra, are your shoulder straps digging in or are you noticing redness and the appearance of rashes and pimples under your breasts, or maybe the big bra is just plain uncomfortable and you are wearing it because you could not get any other one! All these problems I have just mentioned about big bras are common for full figured women. These problems can be resolved by just getting a bra fitted for your figure and bust.

The easiest way to get fitted for a big bra, is walking into a large department store and heading to the lingerie department and ask for a fitting, from someone who has been taught in fitting big bras or specialises in fitting big bras. These staff members will measure accurately to find your cup and band size and point you in the right direction for the best big bra for you.

The Myth: All Big Bras Are the Same, WRONG!!!! Big Bra’s are not all the same

Women with smaller breasts are lucky that they can go into a store and have no problem really buying the same size from any manufacturer and there wont be a great deal of variance. As for women with ample breasts, well we are not so lucky. Some big bras will fit the breasts perfectly from one manufacturer and the next manufacture that provides the next big bra will mean that they have to go up or down a cup or band size to get a good snug fit

Many people choose a couple of big bra styles that they like, fit them well,  give structure and supoort to the breasts. Then they will always buy the same size and type. The problem is breasts size and shape change over our lifetime and this why especially big bra experts advise women to be fitted for their big bras every year.

I hope you enjoyed today’s article and don’t forget to comment about your own big bra’s experiences and ask questions, I love hearing from you.

The top 10 mistakes made by women with bigger busts when buying big bras Part 2

Welcome back ladies to part 2 of The top 10 mistakes made by women with bigger busts when buying big bras. In part 1 I talked about the problems of the baggy back, resisting the revolution of changing bra and cup sizes, that there really is no perfect big bra, the problems that a minimiser bra can cause and the need for the underwire in big bra’s and that it does not need to be uncomfortable. Now to continue where I left of (if you missed the blog about the first 5 problems of buying big bras visit buying big bra problems part 1

6. Big bras and big cups getting confused:

Wearing the wrong size cup is a common mistake by all women around the world and it is rather easy to figure out your cup size with either a fitting or doing it yourself. The signs that you have not got the right cup for your breast

1. Your breasts spill over the edges of the bra and
2. Your breasts don’t fill the cup (resulting in wrinkles)

Ideally your breast cup size should be proportional to your body frame, however this is not always the case.

7. The Old Saying; You Get What You Pay For:

Department stores and cheap outlets often carry poorly made and low quality big bras, that are not really designed to fit your body especially big bra women (they barley even make the size). Higher quality brands, which often offer more size and style options are designed for the real women in mind, don’t be afraid to splash out a little money to keep your body happy. Your breasts will be with you the rest of your life so you need to look after them.

8. The self service slip-ups:

Unfortunately these are a common occurrence with women as they are always in a hurry. Don’t sacrifice service, style and comfort just because you are too busy or afraid to ask. You will be so much happier in the long run if you just ask and take the time to pick the proper big bra for you.

9. De-Compressed Breasts (the athletic sports bra)

I know, I know which idiot of a women with a large bust is going to wear a sports bra, you will be surprised how many I have seen so I thought for those people I would add it in. The idea of the sports bra is to compress the breast to prevent jiggling instead of supporting the breast. The best pick for a sports bra is one with seams, shape and cup depth as this will minimise the compression of the breasts and help prevent the loss of firmness and jiggling.

10. Trying to be Forever free of seams in big bras:

While the seamless bra is comfortable and looks fantastic under a tight shirt or top, wearing them daily is a bad idea. Especially for big bra women they often need the support of the seams to help shape, define and lift the breast. If would be a good idea to alternate between seam and seamless bra’s to give your breasts the relief and also the structure they need.

Well that’s my little rant on the top 10 problems I notice with big bras and big busts till next time hope you have a wonderful day. Don’t forget to leave your comments on problems you have with your big bras.

Did you know that 85% of all women are wearing the wrong size bra!  These are the top 10 problems that busty women have with big bras;

1. The Baggy Back:

The back band of the bra actually provides about 80-90% of the support for your breasts. (Hint: most bra’s have 3 different clasps, use the biggest clasp first and work your way down the clasps as the material stretches from washing and common everyday wear. It makes the bra last longer and retain its shape). The ideal back band should be firm yet still comfortable. When the back band is loose It allows the back of the bra to raise up, allowing the breasts to sag (also known as the see saw affect) also further more it exposes what every woman wants to hid; unsightly back fat as it pushes the skin up into a bundle.

2. Resisting Revolution:

Did you know a women’s bust line can change up to a minimum of 3 times in a year due to weight loss & gain, nursing and hormonal changes in the body. A bra is just like your skincare, makeup and hairstyle it constantly changes and requires different treatment. For optimum comfort, it is a good idea to ensure you get fitted for a bra yearly and every 6 months if you are quite busty and need a big bra.

3. There is no Perfect Bra EVER!

Buying a specialised big bra will take time and just cause your friend says she has found the best bra in the world, it does not mean it will be for you. Women come in all different shapes and sizes; just look in your local bra shop and you can see how they try to cater for all of our bra needs. Be sure to try on several different styles of big bras and see which feels best. A good tip is to try a shirt on to see how it will look under your clothes as well.

4. The problem’s associated with minimiser bra’s the big bind

Big-busted women around the world commonly wear the minimiser bra. The minimiser bra or as I like to call it the big compressor bra actually compresses the breast tissue resulting in a loss of firmness. To appear taller, skinner and smaller ladies with large busts should be looking at big bras that lifts the centre of the bust line not flatten the breasts

5. Don’t be a Pushover, Softy!

Most big bra ladies find underwire bras very uncomfortable because of the dreaded poke. When purchasing a big bra don’t make the mistake of getting a soft, non-underwire cup, just because you think an underwire big bra is going to hurt. For busty women out there you need the underwire in your big bras for that added extra support especially for the fully figured ladies out there. A properly fitted underwire bra should rest comfortably against the rib cage with a soft casing. The end result is a big bra with underwire casing should would and will lift, support and give extra comfort to the breasts.
