Why Measuring Bra Sizes Is Key to Your Look
Measuring bra sizes accurately may be more important than you think. For many women, buying bras comes down to vanity. Let's face it, when staring down the plastic barrels at the Victoria's Secret Semi-Annual Clearance Sale, many of us would rather be caught browing the 34C bin instead of the 36A. However, your undergarments are the basis of your look, so it pays to wear the right size bra.
First of all, it's a universal truth that wearing clothes that are a size too small actually makes us look larger. Similarly, wearing a band size that is too small leads to bulges, bumps, and dreaded rolls. This often gets translated to your entire outfit, making your t-shirt or blouse seem lumpy and ill-fitting. Measuring bra sizes and choosing the right cut can make a world of difference. Your clothes will fit more smoothly, which also gives you a more streamlined, slim look.
It's not just the bra's band size that makes a difference, either. The wrong cup sizes can also make your breasts look flat or squished. While going down a cup size can help you create cleavage, it can also make your bust look stuffed--even painfully so. Similarly, the wrong cup size, large or small, offers no support.
This brings us to the final point. Measuring bra sizes correctly also has a more subtle effect on your overall appearance. When you wear the wrong bra size, you don't get the support you need. This can lead to slouching and slumping. As your mother probably told you (countless times!), your posture really is important. If you're slouching because your back isn't supported, you'll seem not just shorter, but heavier. Also, if you're shirking your shoulders to compensate for too-short straps, you'll come off as strained and uncomfortable. So, find the bra size for you and start looking your best!
