Now knowing the total measurement of your chest underneath your breasts, for every additional inch
measured around the fullest part of your breasts, count the inches in A, B, C, anything under an inch will be a cup size AA, if you are an inch above 34 = A cup, 2 Inches about 34 = B Cup 3 inches above 34 = C cup and so fourth.
Your bra is too big if,
The back rides up and if there is a gap between your breasts and the fabric of the bra itself.
Your bra is too small if,
Your breasts are overflowing at the top, sides or bottom, if the fabric cuts into your skin and if you can see your bra line because the skin bulges out either side of your bra straps.
Lingerie Tips For Finding A Good Fitting Bra:
Check that the centre seam lies flat against your breastbone.
The cups should completely contain your bust
You should not be able to see any bulges underneath a close fitting top
Comfortably be able to place two fingers underneath the band.
When you raise your arms the bra should stay against your body with out lifting up and away from you.
That your bra is comfortably, you should not be conscious of the fact that you are wearing one.
5) Print
Underwear prints and pretty lingerie prints, what lingerie prints will suit me?
New prints come out every season, and when they do every manufacturer jumps on the bandwagon, before you know where you are the print has gone out of fashion and your intimate delicate undergarments become so "last year". This is the major problem with prints and some colours. If you know that colours suit you stick to them.
Some popular prints for women’s lingerie are underwear with heart prints, intimates with floral prints, lingerie with animal skin prints and the forever evolving ladies underwear with the retro prints.
6) Prices
It's true what they say "you only get what you pay for" Each company brand of women’s lingerie will work to different standards and if you like their standard keep using them but do not be distracted by price to try other makes and fit of ladies underwear. If an item of lingerie is reduced it is usually because the retailer can not sell them, as the lingerie is undesirable or has gone out of fashion.
If ladies lingerie is priced cheap then they usually will be made on the cheap. We all want value for money and some less well known companies will charge less for good quality items by cutting profits in order to attract more sales, these are genuinely good value for money in the lingerie department.
7) Seasons.
7a) Spring Lingerie ~ An exciting time to find some light seductive boudoir lingerie to make you feel fresh.
7b) Summer Lingerie ~ Built in bustier bra tops are good, you can wear them as a camisole under Jackets
7c) Autumn Lingerie ~ Try sensual warming colours and materials into your private collection.
7d) Winter Lingerie ~ Designers work on styles for spring but romantic reds for Christmas are great gifts.
8) Women’s Lingerie That Stands Out.
It really is a case of knowing what suits you, If you have ladies underwear lingerie you love and looks good on; you then expand on this look.
It may be that sexy black lace lingerie g-string set or a more comfortable boy short and camisole bustier collection that suits you best.
Try to work this look and feel of lingerie underneath your clothing for the occasion you are attending.
Work out the factors that you need to consider, for example are my outer garment tight, will my underwear garments create protruding patterns through my clothing?
Dress from the inside out and the lingerie you choose will more than likely be the correct choice, which will be just what, you wanted. Know what your best assets are, it may be your legs, thongs and G Stings are best to wear if you want your legs to look longer and more shapely, it may be your bust, in which case a balconette bra can create a shapely glamorous cleavage. When you know which parts are your best features you can help enhanced these areas to the best of your advantage.
9) Feeling good.
If you get the above right you will wear your lingerie underwear garments with confidence, you will be going out with your head held high knowing that the underwear you are wearing shows off and holds your best assets in all the right places. Tantalize everyone with this and your confidence will soar.
10) Care and Maintenance For Your Intimate Apparel Lingerie.
10a)
Washing and drying your delicate women’s underwear garments ~ Always abide by the wash care labels, if in any doubt hand wash and hang to dry.
Your bras will last for years if you hand wash them and rotate how often you wear them. It is easy to put your bras in the washing machine on a delicate setting, but unfortunately this is the worse thing you can do to them, as this is still not delicate enough.
Below are some materials and the qualities they have:
Cotton Lingerie Qualities are Elastic, absorbent comfortable to wear, warm and soft.
Cotton can withstand high temperatures and can be machine washable.
Cold or warm water is recommended for fine lingerie as
washing shrinkage is between 3-5%; wrinkles and ironing are commonly required.
Silk Lingerie Qualities are, Extreme shine and softness as this is a very fine delicate fabric which has unmatched beauty and fit.
Silk can also be thermo protective.
You must take very gentle care to preserve as silk garment.
Many silks are dry clean only.
Washable silks should be cared for in cold water with a mild soap.
Silk is sensitive to heat and is subject to fading and bleeding, so do not soak silk or dry your garment with heat.
It is best to wash each garment separately, dry laying flat, for any creases a low heat iron can be used, it is a good idea to use a towel between the iron and the garment so not heat damage occurs.
Rayon And Viscose Lingerie Qualities are, shine and softness, these fabrics are supple and fluid materials.
Rayon was initially manufactured in the 1940’s as an artificial silk. These fabrics are very sensitive to heat, washing is preferred by hand in cold water, washing shrinkage is between 4-7%.
When washing rayon or viscose lingerie use mild soap, this material can crease easily and use a cool iron.
Lycra, Polyester, Polyamides And Elastane Lingerie Qualities, theses materials are stable and consistent in quality, they are easy to care for and can add strength to blends.
They are very sensitive to heat and will melt, do not apply high heat, these fabrics will not crease easily so not ironing.
If machine-washing then use a medium temperature setting.
Final Tips:
Do not bleach unless you are washing all white and all cotton blends.
Hand wash if possible. Use mild soap
If machine washing, place lingerie in a pillowcase or protective washing bag.
Do not soak your lingerie the colours may bleed.
Never put fine lingerie in a dryer, this ruins the shape and breaks down the fibres, fades the dyes, shrinks the garments and shortens the life span of your product.
10b) Storing Lingerie ~ How to care for your underwear. It is a good idea to have a separate lingerie drawer or chest.
Depending on your lingerie collection, you may want to organise them into sets, or all bras in one drawer all knickers in another drawer.
Another way is corresponding colours; so all black knickers are underneath your black bras, all white thongs are underneath your white bras and so forth.
If you have particularly nice expensive lingerie set, you could always keep the hangers it came on and save a section of your wardrobe especially for your special occasion lingerie.
