How to Find the Best Plus Size Bralettes
When searching for the best bralette, 9 out of 10 times you’re seeking comfort. Did we just make up that stat on the spot? Sure. Is it more like 10 out of 10 times? Sure – actually, YES. Arguably, the most important factor to bralette shopping is how comfortable it is.
Finding the comfiest and best bralette is already hard, but imagine how difficult it can be to find the best plus size bralettes. It seems like most places don’t carry sizes that fit curvier people.
If you’re reading this blog, it’s probably safe to say that you’re one of these people. And you know what? You deserve bralettes that support you in the most comfortable way possible.
Step 1: Find Your Band Size
Grab a measuring tape and wrap it around your ribcage. Make sure it’s comfortably pulled tight right underneath the band of your bra. Markdown how many inches it says and then add five inches to that.
Quick Band Fit Tip:
Your band should sit in place when you raise your arms. If your band is riding up and your straps are falling down, then you should go down a band size. Also, keep in mind that your band should not dig in on the loosest hook. If your band or straps are too tight, you should go up a band size.
Step 2: Measure Your Bust Size
Now wrap your measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest. Voilà! This is your bust size.
Step 3: Determine Your
Cup Size
Wanna do some quick simple math? Subtract your band size from your bust size. Match your final number to these cup sizes.
2” = B
3” = C
4” = D
5” = DD/E
6” = F
7” = G
8” = H
9” = I
Quick Cup Fit Tip:
If you notice gaping (have excess fabric or extra space in your bra), try tightening your straps to see if that helps. If not, then go down a cup size. If your underwire is poking you at your sides or you’re spilling over, go up a cup size.
