Most women come in wearing the wrong size bra.The  sizes are too big in the band and too small a cup size. So, a good starting point is to go down a band size and up 2 cup sizes and see how that size feels. For example, if you are wearing a 40DD go to a 36-38G ), You go up 2 cup sizes because when you go down a band size, the same cup size will actually be smaller as well.

Larger cup bra sizes are available everywhere now in sizes less than an F.

Lots of places make you strip all the way down to your waist but here at Barely Visible we are not interested in where your breast are but where you are going, and thats UP!

Put simply, because we know that they don’t work. Our boobs are three dimensional so tape measures really aren’t any use! Because we all have a unique shape and each style of bra will fit differently, it’s better to understand the basics about what a bra should look and feel like when it fits you properly. This way you’ll know what to check when you try each bra and fitting yourself becomes easy. Of course, if you’re ever stuck or want a second opinion, we’re always here to help!

We think it’s useful to compare buying a bra with buying a pair of shoes. Just as our feet vary in terms of size and shape, our boobs differ in terms of volume, shape and spacing. You might know your shoe size but it’s unlikely that you’d buy a pair of shoes without trying them on first. The same goes for bras – one style of bra may be perfect for one woman and wrong for another, even though they are the same size. Added to this, bras tend to vary in size by brand (as each manufacturer grades their bras slightly differently) and even from style to style, so you really need to try every bra on before you keep it.

If one boob is slightly bigger than the other (this is very common so you’re not unusual!) we recommend that you fit your bigger side, because a little looseness on your smaller side shouldn’t show through your clothes – but bulging on the bigger side is more likely to show.
