How to Wear Bra
Step 1: Bend, Scoop & Fasten
- Lean forward to let your bust fall naturally into the cups.
- Scoop and lift each breast with the opposite hand, ensuring the tissue is fully encased.
-
Fasten on the loosest hook – this preserves the elastic stretch for future wear.
This simple posture sets the foundation for a flawless fit.
Step 2: Level the Band
- The underband should sit straight and snug across your back.
- If it rides up, go down a band size or tighten the hook.
- This band carries the bulk of support—straps are just the finishing touch.
Step 3: Adjust the Straps
- Straps should feel comfortable and supportive, allowing about two fingers underneath.
- They shouldn’t dig in or slip—if they do, adjust accordingly.
- Remember: straps provide only about 20% of support; the band and cups do the rest.
Step 4: Check the Cups
- Perform a final scoop & swoop—lean again to ensure all tissue is contained.
- Overflow? The cup is too small—trying a larger cup size will prevent spillage.
- Gaps? The cup is too big—go down a size to smooth the look.
Step 5: Fit the Underwire (if wired)
- The wire should sit flat against your ribcage, completely enclosing breast tissue.
- Any poking or pressure on breast tissue = adjust band or cup size upward.
- A well-placed wire lifts, shapes, and supports—essential for structured styles.
Your Strap, Scoop & Smooth Checklist

Pro Tips
- Always begin on the loosest hook; as fabric softens, move inward.
- Rotate bras—don’t wear the same one daily to extend its life.
- Reassess regularly—especially post-weight change, pregnancy, or monthly cycle.
