I have a new type of bra?

Question

Ok like I have anew bra and my other one's looked better on me and I dont like my new bra because it feels uncomfortable. So why am I si uncomfortable? They are big on me and I have them as tight as they go so any tips?

Answer 1

Even if the new bra is the same size (back and cup) as your old one, different styles have different fits, just like shoes. While my feet size doesn't change I wear shoes from 5 - 7 according to the fit and style. Perhaps this sized bra is just not a good fit for you. You should try it on before you buy one for that reason.
But it could also be if the style is different, you need to get used to it, kind of like putting on new shoes too. They may rub, just because your feet aren't used to them.
Have you tried adjusting the straps? They may not be in a position that suits you. And you should buy your bras so that they fit on the first hook (the loosest fitting), so you can adjust them in as the material gives a little with wear. Much more economical then.

If all else fails, and the bra is new (with tags on), and the store has a returns policy, go get something else.

Answer 2

Did you not try it on before you bought it???
If you've adjusted the straps and the back, and it's still too big, you have the wrong size bra !
It could be too big in the cup size,or too big in the width.
Next time you go shopping, take the bra that fits you well with you so you can get the same brand and correct size.
Every manufacturer cuts theirs a little differently.
Find what you like and stick with it.

Answer 3

It's easy, get a different bra.

My tip is to try them on before buying and make sure they fit really well first. Consider going somewhere to be measured- most women are trying to wear the wrong size.

I usually find 1 that's really comfortable for every 10 or so I try on.

Answer 4

This new type of bra probably feels uncomfortable because you are not used to wearing it. You should have gotten a smaller bra size.

Answer 5

You should get yourself measured.

Grab a measuring tape and measure around your rib cage just under your breasts.

Add 5 inches. Take note of this number, that's your chest size.

Now measure the fullest part of your breasts. Take note of this too. This is your cup size.

For example, you got 26 inches for your chest size, then you added 5 inches to get 31 inches. And you got 32 inches for your cup size. Subtract your chest size from your cup size(32 - 31 = 1). You get 1. One inch. That is an A cup. Since you got 31 for your chest size, your bra size is 31A. (That was an example btw)

1/2 and inch or less = AA cup
1 inch difference = A cup
2 inch difference = B cup
3 inch difference = C cup
and so on.........

Hope that this helps.

Not all bras fit the same way-- different brands fit different, like shoes. Try going down a cupsize- i'm guessing your other bra is a different brand or if from a different store: Many times when i find a brand that i like i just stick with it =) So i suggest switching back or going down a cupsize.

Answer 7

It's likely just an uncomfortable fit for you. Apart from adjusting straps, removing underwire if it has any and using different hooks, there's not much else you can do :(

Answer 8

DON'T wear bras that DON'T support you the way it's supposed to!
sell it to your g/friend & buy another 1 that fits properly!

Answer 9

Return it to the store you bought it at and get the same style that you looked better, and fit in.

Answer 10

you just have to get used to it=wear it for awhile then switch back to the regular ones and then try it again for awhile longer each day until you get used to it=good luck
