Bra Styles
There are dozens of styles of bras to fit your taste, size and particular occasion. Finding a bra that suits you should not be a problem. Once you have figured out your bra size and bra fitting requirements, you will want to decide what role your bra will play.
Below is a comprehensive list of bra designs for you to consider:
Sports Bras: Designed to keep your breasts under control when undertaking any physical activity.
Nursing Bras: Easy access to the food source for the breastfeeding mom.
Maternity Bras: Supports daily breast growth.
Mastectomy Bras: For your post mastectomy needs.
Full Figure Bras: If you are a large-breasted woman, you will want a full-figured bra.
Bridal Bras: Support for all that cake cutting.
Underwire Bras: Torture device disguised as underwear.
Vintage Bras: Remember the pointy, stick in your eye "bullet bras" from the 40's? Or the lung-compressing corset? Well, they're back and they are just as restrictive.
Teen Bras: Designed to talk back and be surly.
Belly Dance Bras: No matter what style of belly dance you may be studying, you will definitely want a beautiful belly dance bra. Guaranteed to improve your chest rolls.
Leather Bras: If you like leather, the leather bra is one more way to get your fix.
Sexy Bras: Depends on who you ask. Many would say NONE.
Name Brand Bras: Some people only want brand names so that they can name drop at cocktail parties. But who talks about underwear at parties?
Fitting a Bra
Wearing a bra that fits is much better for your breast health. Unfortunately, more than 70% of women are wearing the wrong size of bra. Don't be one of them!
Follow these four easy steps to ensure you are shopping for your bra size:
Measurement number 1: Measure under your bust line.
Put on your best-fitting, unpadded, under wire bra. Measure underneath the bust line and make sure to measure tightly. Be sure the tape measure is straight across your back.
The general rule of thumb for all measuring is: less than ½â, round DOWN, more than a ½â, round UP. So if your measurement is 32 ¼â, call it 32. Write this number down. This is measurement number 1.
Band Size: Calculate your band size.
If measurement 1 is UNDER 33 inches, add 5 inches. If this number is odd, round up to the next EVEN number. If measurement 1 is OVER 33 inches, add 3 inches. If this number is odd, round up to the next EVEN number. Write this EVEN number down. This is your band size.
Measurement number 2: Measure over the bust line
Measure over the biggest point of your bust line. This is a looser measurement. Make sure the tape measure is straight. Write this number down. This is measurement number 2.
Cup Size: Calculate your cup size.
First subtract measurement number 1 from measurement number 2. Then consult the following chart to find your cup size.
Name Brand Bras
All bras are not created equal. A cheap, poorly made bra is as easy to come by as a cheap and poorly made pair of shoes. And as with shoes, cheap and poorly made, typically mean you feel pain and the product wears out quickly.
Remember that buying a well-made, high-quality bra will give you the best fit and performance AND reduce the frequency of bra shopping for those of you that loath that experience.

Bras are an investment. Shopping takes time. Bras cost a fair chunk of change. With proper care, your bras life will be extended to last as long as possible. If you decide to machine wash your bras, always use the gentle cycle and put bras in a nylon bag, stocking or special garment bag so that certain pieces like bras won't wrap around the agitator.

In between a bra and a hard place. How do you deal with manufactures' desire for symmetry?
Felicia
I was a 34D for the longest. Then I got off birth control, lost 15 pounds and was a very nice, very cute, very happy 32D.
Well now I'm back on birth control, 10 pounds heavier and the 32D on the last hooks is too small and the 34D on the tightest fit is too big.
The worst part is, because my breast aren't symmetrical, the 32D is good on one (more of less) and the 34D is good on the other (again, more or less).
Any ideas? I know I'm not the only one experiencing this annoying lingerie peeve of trying to find both a comfortable and sexy bra. Love to see a man upset about his inconsistencies of his ball size.
Answer
Bra sizing differs from manufacturer to manufacturer. 32D Triumph bra will fit much smaller than 32 Warner Bra, while 32D Maidenform bra will fit the largest. Itâs the same as clothing and shoe size that it differs from manufacture to manufacture. I know it shouldnât but it does. You might want to try different brands in the same size.
As for bra sizing. The number 32, or 34 in your case is number that represents the size of your rib cage all around â but letâs just make it simple and say it represents your back â how wide is your back. While the letter number in your case D represents cup size. Your back size can change if you lose or gain weight. Your cup size also changes with loss or gain of weight. But taking birth control increases ONLY your cup size if you stay at the same weight. Birth control pills are charged with hormones that make the breast swell up and retain more water in their tissue.
Asymmetrical breast are actually very common. In fact most of people are slightly asymmetrical. One foot slightly bigger than other, or fingers on left and right hand differ in size. A ring that you would wear on your left hand middle finger, might not fit on your right hand middle finger. Some people have bigger difference in asymmetry others have very tiny unnoticeable difference. There are many women who facing same asymmetry issues when buying bras. My suggestion is to purchase a bra that fits well your larger breast, and compensate for the lack of volume in the other cup by adding a small tiny padding into the bra. It will even out the look. Bra padding comes in a variety of shapes and sizes. You donât need to get any huge bulky pad. Just a small crest moon shape bra insert. Some bras come with pockets where you can insert padding. In that case you can remove the insert form your larger breast cup, and keep the insert only in the smaller breast cup.
Go out to a store that carries variety of bra brands, or go to a mall where there are several lingerie stores, and try on the same size 34D by different manufacturers. Iâm sure you will find that perfect bra. Itâs just a bit of time and patience. Once you will find a brand that works for you, you might want to stick with them.
My motto is: A girl should have a good quality bra regardless whatever the cost is, even if her t-shirt cost $5. That $5 t-shirt can look like million dollars if you are wearing a right bra underneath. Good bra makes a difference how all your clothes hangs on you. It even has an effect on your posture ï
