Most of us don’t realise we’ve been wearing an ill-fitting bra until we finally put on one that actually does the job. Suddenly all the little faults that you’d become used to – the digging in straps, the not-quite-as-lifty-as-you’d-like support – are emphasised and you wonder how you ever coped or accepted it.
Reassuringly though you’re not alone. In fact, experts say that up to 80 per cent of women are wearing an ill-fitting bra.
Fortunately there are a few giveaway signs to look out for that your bra might not be, erm, supporting you as it should. And if any of them sound familiar, it’s time to get yourself to an expert fitter at the Myer Fitting Event to get sorted.
1. The straps dig in.
Uncomfy straps that leave dents on your shoulders are a surefire sign your bra isn’t giving your boobs the support they need, leaving it up to the straps alone to do the heavy lifting. In fact, straps should really only be doing 10 per cent of the work, with the band responsible for the rest.
