Someone recently mentioned that there is a woman (I think from Manhattan) who sells bras based on your measurements.
Can't seem to find the thread.
If anyone knows what I'm referring to, I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thank you.

But I can tell you a thing or two about bra sizes and styles. Most of the support is from the band, not the straps. If the band is slightly loose, then it rides up, and then the breasts fall down in the front. The band in the back should be as low (or even lower) than the front of the bra. A common mistake with bras is to wear a band size that is too large, tighten the straps to make up for the lack of band support, and then have a compromised fit and straps that are digging into them or too short. Try a smaller band size.
If the sides are drooping out, then the cup size is too small. If the cups are creased, then it’s probably too large cup size.
My shoulders are also tiny, I just shorten my straps 2 inches when I buy new bras.
Regarding styles, it’s personal. Some people prefer padded to prevent nipple show through. Some people are really stuck on tshirt bras, which have nice smooth fabric and look good under tshirts.
But call orchard corset: +1 (212) 674-0786
(Her husband answers the phone, just ask to speak to her). Btw this recommendation it is coming from someone who could never find bras that fit and make me feel good. Every store that I was fitted in, I walked out and regretted my purchase, bc they just don’t know what they’re doing. |

I know nothing about them but I would imagine that anything adjusted, in any store is non-refundable, because it is now altered and likely no longer sellable.
