Have larger breasts and rely on your straps for support? Here’s what you need to know:

The misconception that plus size /fuller cup women need larger straps for support is not entirely true. 

It’s not your fault - it’s a narrative pushed by the mainstream undergarment industry that only makes bras one way because of cost efficiencies in materials, mass produced design etc. 

In reality larger straps on bras should be present:

☑️so they do not dig into your shoulders because of the weight of your breasts.
☑️so they are proportional to the design and function of the bra.
🚫NOT Because they hold up your breasts.

 🙅🏽‍♀️ MYTH! You should NOT be relying on your straps solely for support. So if you’re constantly adjusting yourself, find yourself with neck/back pain or believe your straps are not doing their job it’s true because that’s not their job description 🙃… it’s time to get fitted. 

FACT: Your straps are there to support your BAND which is doing the majority of the work.  A proper sized bra will distribute the support to all the right places (primarily the band) so that there is less pressure on your shoulders, neck and back.  This is why accurate sizing it crucial! In most cases getting fitted at a proper bra boutique is free - so take advantage of expert support, it could literally make a huge different on your quality of life! 

Not sure where to start? You can book a virtual or in person fitting - link in bio 🙌🏽

Do you rely on your straps for support?
