DÉESSE BRA FIT GUIDE
PROBLEMS &

SOLUTIONS

YOUR BAND IS DIGGING IN OR RIDING UP.
TRY:

• a style with wider band
• a larger band size if it’s digging in
• a smaller band size if it’s riding up
• adjust the hook & eye closure

YOUR CUPS ARE OVERFLOWING OR THE CENTER GORE
GAPES FROM YOUR BREASTBONE.
TRY:

• a larger CUP size

YOUR BUSTLINE IS SAGGING, OR CUP FABRIC IS PLEATING.
TRY:

• a style with more rigid or padded cups
• a smaller band and/or cup size

YOUR STRAPS ARE DIGGING IN OR SLIPPING OFF YOUR
SHOULDERS

• should be able to slide a finger under straps
• shorten if slipping off shoulders

THE PERFECT FIT ‘T-SHIRT TEST’

Your bra should lay flat at the center front without gaping or bulging. The
band should be comfortably snugged without riding up. The straps should
sit parallel without digging in. Breast should be mid-point between shoulder
& elbow. Try a cling knit t-shirt over your new bra to see the difference and
your new silhouette.

All of these problems and solutions are addressed on our Bra Fit Training
Modules on Elearning. Be sure to watch it!
