Plus Size Lingerie
So let's start at the very beginning, the main thing you have to be sure of when you are buying plus size lingerie is your size. This is especially important when buying a bra. Studies have shown that 70% opf women are wearing the wrong size bra. Are you one of them?
Here's how to measure yourself properly so that your bra fits perfectly.
Use a soft tape measure and in front of a mirror, measure underneath your breasts. Starting at your cleavage, pass the tape measure behind your back and around to your front. This is your band size.
Next, move the tape up to your armpits and measure above your breast. Write that number down on a piece of paper. Now, measure your breast at nipple level, the fullest part of your breasts. Subtract the number you wrote down from the nipple-around-and-back measurement, and voila! That's your cup-size!
