The Bra Revolution: UPDATED

After seeing Oprah, I think I will get fitted today to see if i'm wearing the correct size. (I tivo'ed it, and am watching it right now.)

Who else is going to get sized?

I'm currently a 34B and hoping they tell me i'm a 32C.Chat Icon


If you already have gotten sized, were you wearing the right size all along?

UPDATE: I'm in shock!!

I just got back from Nordstrom's and i'm a 32DChat Icon Chat Icon

I've been wearing a 34B forever...but the 32 D actually felt much better. The C felt good too, so I think it's time to go bra shopping!

Re: The Bra Revolution

I got a special bra for my wedding dress and they told me my size was way off. I was wearing a 36C and they said I should be wearing a 38D.

Re: The Bra Revolution

I saw that Oprah and I think I am wearing the wrong size. I got measured in the Platex store in Riverhead outlets, but I don't think they knew what they were talking about, so I would like to go somewhere else.

They also measured my mom who is so petite on top and told her she needed a 38! (She wears a small) so I don't believe them

I had the same exact thing happen to me. I was wearing a 36C and they told me I am a 32 or a 34D.

Re: The Bra Revolution

I'm never getting fitted, I'm afraid they'll tell me not to bother or move me back to a training bra.

You really should go. After seeing Oprah, there was a girl who was wearing AA and really should be in a B cup.

Silly question but...how do they measure you? Do you get nekked and the lady puts a measuring tape around your boobs? I feel like that would be so weird!

No. I was a little worried about that too.

The lady brings you into a dressing room and you take your shirt off (bra still on). She then measures right underneath your boobs, which is the smallest part of your upper body.

Then she kinda just looked at my chest and said that she'll bring my a 32C & D to try on.

She left the room for me to try it on, and came back to see how it fit. When she came back in the room, she made some adjustments to the straps, and decided which was the best fit.

I get embarrassed very easily, and felt very comfortable with her.
