According to lingerie experts that Glamour previously spoke to, when it comes to picking shopping for a bra, it’s all about the right fit for your breast shape. First figure out these three things: your breast volume (or fullness), breast shape (slender, compact, or asymmetric), and positioning (whether your breasts are closer to each other or you have chest space in between). This will help determine the style of bra that works best for you. For example, if you have fullness at the bottom, a balconette is your MVP but if you have fullness at the top you might want more coverage and support with a T-shirt bra or triangle bralette.
Bulging, skin irritation, and discomfort can all be the results of a tight-fitting bra. On the other hand, lack of support from a too-loose bra is just as uncomfortable. The right bra—whether it’s a strapless bra, wireless, or pushup—should be snug around your ribcage, with straps and cups that mold to your chest. If the cups float in the center front, bulge, or cause breast to spill over, then it it’s not the best bra fit.
And of course, when it comes to materials, it’s a mix of personal preference. Some of the most comfortable bras are made of softer-on-skin fabrics like cotton or bamboo. That said, the right blend of nylon, spandex, and elastane can be equally pleasant to wear for long stretches. Of course, if you’re an active person and looking for a more versatile sports bra, keep an eye out for moisture-wicking, antimicrobial materials that don’t itch or chafe.
