The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Perfect Bra

The well-known lingerie expert Rebecca Apsan selected the underwear worn by the characters in Sex & The City. Stars such as Angelina Jolie, Meryl Streep, and Linda Evangelista are known to frequent her stores. She’s also written a book about selecting the right bra and underwear.

Rebecca claims that selecting the right bra can change a person’s body and their life and make them happier.

With this in mind, we at CLAMOTION would like to show you how to select the right bra to make sure you feel both comfortable and beautiful.

Taking measurements

Many women buy bras that are the size they would like to wear rather than what actually fits them. Often, this turns out to be a cup size smaller than what they need.

In order to definitively work out which size you need, you have to start by taking your measurements. But bear in mind that these measurements are only the beginning. The size you measure might turn out to be slightly incorrect when you come to try something on, simply because different companies make items that are marginally different in size and because your body shape is unique.

Band circumference

Chest circumference

Put on the most comfortable and ordinary bra you have (not a push-up or a minimizer). The measuring tape should be stretched horizontally and pass over the point of furthest protrusion from the chest but without pressing down on it.
