ALWAYS DOUBLE-CHECK YOUR FIT.

Don’t hesitate to seek professional help for the perfect fit.

A well-fitting bra supports comfort, posture, and confidence throughout the day. When the fit is incorrect, it can lead to shoulder strain from tight straps, skin irritation from friction, band discomfort, or lack of proper support. Since breast size and shape can change over time due to age, weight changes, pregnancy, or hormonal shifts, regular fitting checks are important.

A basic bra fitting usually involves two key measurements:

Band measurement: Taken snugly around the ribcage, just under the bust, to determine the band size.

Bust measurement: Taken around the fullest part of the bust to determine the cup size.

The difference between these two measurements helps identify the correct cup size, while the band measurement determines the primary support level. Experts often note that the band should provide most of the support, while straps help stabilize the fit.

Because sizing can vary between styles and brands, trying different sizes and styles with professional guidance can make a significant difference in comfort and support.

At Alba, we encourage women to never hesitate to seek fitting assistance, because the right fit helps you move comfortably, feel supported, and wear every outfit with confidence.
