Size Up the Situation

One of our staff testers had been wearing a 38B for years. So you can imagine her surprise when a professional fitter broke the news to her that she was actually a 36C. “Unbelievable!” the staffer exclaimed. “But you know what? The 36C feels much better — more supportive and comfortable.” Her advice? Get thee to a professional fitter; nearly every department store has one. Or, if you’re strapped for time, at least check your measurements yourself. Keep in mind, though, that bras are like shoes: No two fit the same. You have to try them on. Taking Your Measure Not only will a properly fitted bra feel more comfortable, but it will make your clothes fit and look better. First step: Learn how to do the math, so you can figure out your own dimensions. 1. Stand straight and relax. Don’t inhale and expand your rib cage as if you’re about to blow out candles. 2. Using a soft tape measure, measure all the way around your body, placing the tape measure right beneath your breasts (example: 30 1/2). Add five to that number, rounding up if necessary to the next even number (36). Congratulations: That’s your band size. 3. Next step: The cup. While wearing a bra, measure completely around the fullest part of your bust (across the nipple) without pulling tight. Make sure the tape measure goes around your entire back (38). 4. Subtract the number from your band size (38-36=2). The result will indicate your appropriate cup size, based on the following guide: 0=AA 1=A 2=B 3=C 4=D 5=DD 6=DDD

Womens Sleepwear

Women’s sleep wear are also called nightdress, nightclothes, or nightwear. It is a clothing created for sleeping purposes. It is worn by women who really feel comfortable with it because some would rather prefer to sleep naked or only in a particular type of underwear. The type of nightwear being may also depend on the season. Take for instance; some women are wearing nightdresses only on winter. But now, using it is another way of following the latest trends in fashion.

There are several types of women’s sleep wear and each has specific features that will cater into the different preferences, styles, and needs of every women. Take enough time in educating yourself with various styles and get inspiration from its different looks and appeal so that you can create your own fashion statement.

-A night wear which is really intended for women is a babydoll, popularly known as negligee or short nightgown. The garment is usually trimmed with ruffles, lace, appliqués, ribbons, bows, and Marabou fur which can be designed optionally with spaghetti straps. The materials used are either translucent fabrics (silk, chiffon, or nylon) or sheer. A babydoll is considered a provocative dress resembling minidresses which have six inches hemline above the knees and hollow designs on the necks.

-The most popular loosely designed night apparel for women is a nightgown or nightie which is made of materials such as nylon, satin, silk, and cotton. Its length may vary. It can either be a hip-length or a floor length nightgown. However the usual length is knee length. A nightgown can be decorated with embroidery and lace appliqués on the hemlines and cups.

-The women’s sleep wear which is only intended for bedroom and night use is the negligee. It was introduced during the eighteenth century in France where it copied the designs of the day dresses of women that time. However, the alteration of its designs with lace trimming, bows, and translucent bodices lead in considering it as lingerie. The modern designs revealed fabrics sewn in multiple layers giving a more fine emphasis on women’s bed-capes and bedjackets.

-The simple garment worn by women next to their skin to protect their clothes from body oils and sweat is called chemise, shift or smock.

-Lingerie is a women’s sleepwear which is now considered as undergarments.

-The special type of shirt which can be used for sleeping is called a nightshirt. This is a bedtime garment patterned in the undergarments of Europeans during the nineteenth century.

-The type of a long nightgown that is usually chiffon made with a sheer design is referred to as peignoir. It is worn without underwear however it is usually sold with panties attached to it.

Today, women’s sleepwear continuously dominates the fashion preferences of most women. Some women wear it on public to express their idea that these comfortable sleep dresses could be elevated for legal public use. There are women, who also experimented in using it together with their denim shirts, jeans, sweaters, and blazers.

The versatility of sleepwear truly opens the creative horizons of women. Sleepwear is not anymore for indoor or bedroom use only. It can be a beautiful outer wear which can be worn with or without accompaniments. Women will really feel sexy, cute, and comfortable besides fashion is also a matter of confidence for them.

Getting your Bra Size Straight

 One of the most common mistakes women make is picking the wrong size bra band. As a plus sized woman, I know the temptation to pick a smaller band size or cup size. Even my non-plus sized friends have the tendency to do the same thing. Dont obsess over the letter and number. The only thing that matters is how YOU feel. To find your bra size you will need to take two measurements. I would reccomend buying either a cloth or paper tape measure for this. Wearing a bra, stand in front of a mirror to make sure the tape measure is level. If possible, have a friend do this for you. Step 1: Band Size Measure your rib cage directly under your breasts. The tape measure should go all the way around and be snug against you. Write down this number in inches. Step 2: Bust Size Measure around your breasts at their fullest point which is usually just over your nipples. Make sure that the measuring tape is straight all the way around and that it isnt too tight against you. Write down this number in inches. Step 3: Use Our Bra Size Calculator Plug your numbers into our bra size calculator to find your bra size. Bra Size: It’s important to remember that bras and bra sizes will all vary slightly between manufacturers. So Bali bras will fit differently from Wacoal bras or Warners bras. Use the bra size our bra size calculator gives you as a starting point. Finding the right bra size is a bit of trial and error. To get the perfect fit you will need to try on a few bras. Don’t be hesitant to experiment with bras up or down a band size or a even cup size. I don’t reccomend buying bras online until you find a bra manfacturer that fits you well. However, if you are large breasted and require bigger bras (large cup and band sizes), the internet can be an invaluable source. Fantasie of England bras, which are easily available on the internet, are a good option for full figure bras. Fantasie of England bras come in many large cup sizes – even 34H bras!. Further down this page I speak a little about minimizer bras for those of us with large breasts.
