Measure your band snugly under the bust and your cup around the fullest part, then use a size chart, since the difference between the two measurements gives your cup size. The band should sit level and snug, and the cups should fully contain the bust without spilling or gaping.

Wear a seamless t-shirt bra under fitted tops, a strapless or stick-on bra under off-shoulder and open backs, a plunge bra under low necklines, and a sports bra for workouts. Nude tones disappear under light fabrics. Match the bra to the neckline and back of the outfit.

For a fuller bust, choose a full-cup, balconette, or underwired bra with wider straps and a supportive band that lifts and holds. Look for adjustable straps and a higher centre. Avoid thin, unstructured bralettes, which give little support. The right band size does most of the lifting.

A push-up or plunge bra with padded, angled cups gives the most lift and cleavage, pushing the bust up and in. A balconette lifts while keeping a rounder shape. Choose the right band and cup first, since support and lift come from a correct fit, not just padding.

A bra fits when the band sits level and snug on the loosest hook, the cups fully contain the bust without spilling or wrinkling, and the straps stay put without digging. If the band rides up, size down the band; if the cup gaps or overflows, adjust the cup.

With a backless dress, wear a stick-on or adhesive bra, a low-back bra with a converter strap, or built-in cups if the dress has them. Choose a nude tone to disappear. For a fuller bust, look for adhesive bras with extra lift and side support.
