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. 

The most common mistake that we make is to wear a back size that’s too big. The strap around your body should fit snugly and will only move around it it’s too big. If this is happening, you need to try a smaller back size. Remember that a smaller back size will mean that the cup size is smaller too (i.e. a 34G is smaller in the back and the cup than a 36G). If, for example, you found a 36G fit you well in the cup but was too small in the back, you should try a 34GG.

Moulded bras are often called ‘T-Shirt’ bras and give a great smooth look under clothes as they are seam-free. A moulded bra is simply a style where the cups are made with a single piece of fabric that is moulded to a shape (rather than a cut and sew bra where the cup is made up from different pieces of fabric which have been sewn together). Most moulded styles are made from foam which keeps its shape when you lay it flat. Some people assume that all moulded styles are padded but that’s not the case  They offer great support and a smooth fit without adding to your size.

UNDERWIRE GARMENTS

All underwire garments need the same care when washing – this includes bras, swimwear and camisole tops! We advise that you hand wash these items because machine washing can shrink the fabric, and distort the wires so they push through the fabric. Use a mild soap. We prefer you buy your bra wash specifically designed for bra and swimwear fabric. That can be purchased from us on another page or in our store.

If the wires come out of the garment completely they can cause considerable damage to your washing machine, which can be costly to fix. Good news for your repairman, but definitely not for you!

We also recommend that you dry underwire styles away from direct heat because radiators and tumble dryers can also damage and degrade the wires.

SWIMWEAR

You can prolong the life of your swimwear and help protect it against the damaging effects of chlorine, perspiration and suntan lotion by rinsing it out in cool water immediately after you have used it. You should avoid using fabric softener, because this breaks down elastic and degrades swimwear.

Metal beads and trim can become very hot when exposed to direct sunlight or worn in a sauna, so please exercise caution.
