The Perfect Bra?
There is no perfect bra, because no two women are alike. Just like the shoes in your closet, your lingerie drawer should reflect your lifestyle, needs and shape. You wouldn’t wear running shoes to a wedding or stilettos to go jogging. The same applies to bras. You wear a sports bra when you need better support and an elegant bra for a night on the town. Whether, dainty, daring, supportive or sporty, you need the right style to suit your shape and size. Yes, size counts too! Women with bigger breasts need more support, either from underwire or elastic reinforcements. Small-breasted women also need support, but definition is even more important to highlight their contours. When you want to go for glamour, push-up, demi-cup, strapless and convertible (backless, crisscross, halter) bras are perfect. When you feel sporty or casual, go for a sports, soft cup, seamless or contour bra. Plunging bras, with lots of lace, sheer fabric and bows are perfect for the bedroom or the boardroom. After all, you’re the only one who knows what’s underneath your clothes!
Bra Basics
One thing’s for sure, though. Regardless of the type of bra you wear, having the right fit and proper adjustment will make all the difference in the world. What really count are band size (as in 32, 34, 36 or 38) and cup size (A, B, C, D). The two measurements are interrelated, because cup size increases with larger band sizes. For example, a 32B will always be a 32, but the B cup size will increase as the band size increases, so the cup size of a 36B bra would be larger.
How do you know what’s right for you?
If your band size is too small, your bra will feel tight and flesh will overflow on the sides. If your band size is too large, your bra will ride up your back and provide no support at all. You know that your cup size is too small when your breasts spill over the top and sides of your bra or if the underwire pokes into breast tissue. Straps should be tight enough to hold your bra in place, but not so tight that they cut into your skin. The rule of thumb-so to speak-is that you should be able to fit two fingers snugly under the top of the strap. Of course, you don’t want the straps to be so loose that they fall down. The band should be snug and fit evenly around the rib cage. Good posture is an excellent figure enhancer…and it’s free! Remember to hold your shoulders back and stand tall. Go ahead…say goodbye to droopiness, overflowing cups and straps that are too tight. Say hello to the new and confident you!

I have used Wonderbra for over 30 yrs…have tried others but some are still sitting in my dresser drawer….Wonderbra is the most comfortable and in my mind the best out there
I am unable to view your website when I need to look for more styles of Wonder Bra. What am I missing? Could you please help me out. I am looking for Style #1907. I bought it at Sear’s around Christmas time. I love this style and would like to buy more.
Hi,
the model 1907 was discontinued but i’m sure you could find another model that will fit you just like a glove. You can start by going to a store (Sears and The Bay) and get fitted by a professional, they are there just for you, that way you will be sure to have a bra that fits just right.
Hi I am having a hard time finding bra styles #2078 camelia and # 7472 IN 36 C
Hi Elaine,
the #2078 camelia is available at The Bay and Sears, and the #7472 is available at The Bay, Sears, Zellers and Walmart.
While shopping for bras recently I was told that my favorite style was no longer available. The clerk recommended I try style #2620. After a quick fitting, I purchased one in skin tone and one in black. This bra is so comfortable it is now my go bra for eveything and I have gone back and purchased two more! I do hope you keep this style around for a few more years. Thank you for making the most comfortable and affordable bras on the market!
Thank YOU so much for such a sweet comment! It’s so nice to hear when a client is satisfied, we work so hard to try to make a good product.
Thank you again and have a nice day!
I can’t find style #7209, black in 36D. I have checked Sears, the Bay and Zellers. Do you have on line ordering??
Hi!
It’s available at Sears only. They do have an online store.
Have a nice day!
I need help with sizing! I measure 23.5 inches under my bustline, and 38.5 across the fullest part.
Am I reading your chart correctly? Am I really “off the charts?” My measurements are definitely correct, and I was NOT measuring over clothing! (And no, I haven’t had “work” done to them!)
Thanks!
Dear Tandy,
we would recommand that you get fitted by a professional to find first, what size you really are and second, what type of bra would fit better. We recommend that every woman get fitted, especially after losing or gaining weight, and after giving birth. Afterward, you can also take a look at our online catalogs in the product section, to see what kind of model is available on the market.
Thank you and good luck!
