I am among the 90% of women wearing the wrong bra

KonaCoffeeBean · October 2014

I've gained a little over 20 pounds this year, most of itin my stomach and butt, but bras have also gotten uncomfortable. I've been a 34C since college, but went into Nordstrom today at lunchtime and asked for a fitting, figured I was more like a D cup now. The sales lady measured me at a 32DDD, which sounds absurd to me. PSA: get your tits sized, that shit is crazy.

Yep, I agree 100%. There's nothing like a proper fitting bra!

I was floored by how wrong the size I was wearing was.

Years ago I was at VS and asked to get fitted. The women looked so uncomfortable doing it, which made me feel uncomfortable, and I never went back to get fitted. But sounds like something I should get done. Maybe a trip to Nordstrom should be in my near future.

I have the same problem Kona! I, too, need to go get fitted--I know I am in the wrong size--good bras are SO expensive, though. I keep thinking--if I would just lose weight...these bras would fit again!

They are pretty pricey, but what I did is get fitted at Nordstrom, I bought one of the bras that I liked (Elomi, which is $55) and then watched Nordstrom Rack for my size going forward. It totally changed the way my clothes fit.

I pay $70 for Elomi here, but I've found a few on Amazon for $39.99.

Totally agree! I was sized earlier this year at Soma and found out I was a triple D as well. Crazy stuff. I never realized how uncomfortable I was before!
