As I told Maria, it’s a big reason why I haven’t felt Soma bras fit my figure. I NEVER would have thought that was my size. What I found though is 99% of the bras I tried fit best in a 36 G. You may be a different size depending on the style of the bra or the brand. Soma thinks about bras the way I do about fashion – the number isn’t important, what’s important is fit. Maria didn’t immediately mention what size she thought I was, just brought bras for me to try and see. Maria called it a “flat tire” because it was so beyond its expiration date. The bra I wore to Soma that day was a 38 DDD, my strapless bra. I was purchasing bras in 36 DD and the cups seemed right, but the band felt a bit snug and I couldn’t wait to take my bra off at the end of the day. Maria returned with the bras as well as one of Soma’s seamless camisoles to wear over the bras to get a gauge for fit.Īt my last fitting which was at Nordstrom, I was 200 lbs. Maria used a tape measure to get a general idea of my size and then left to pull a few different styles of bras. I took off my top, but no other clothing. Maria invited me to a spacious fitting room with flattering lighting. I was also open to trying other kinds of bras as my body is very different from what it was a year ago. I like a molded cup because it gives me the lift, shape, and smoothness that I like and also works with my wardrobe. I told her I needed to be fitted, I was looking for an everyday bra, but also a strapless bra. She asked me what I was looking for that day. I recently visited the Soma at Tyson’s Corner, Virginia and met with Maria, one of Soma’s Expert Fit Stylists.
I reached out to them asking if they'd be game for me sharing my experience getting a bra fitting at one of their Soma boutiques and they loved the idea. I’ve always had success with Soma and I love that they have staff on hand at every boutique, all the time, to help you find the perfect bra while feeling comfortable (and not having to get naked!). My new bras were the same brand and style of my old, but they just didn’t fit the same and weren’t as comfortable. I had replaced bras, but I guessed my size based on how my old bras fit. It was before I quit my job, before I started going to a gym, before I lost a couple dress sizes. Like most women, the last time I got fitted for a bra was far too long ago. This experience isn’t one many women look forward to I found Soma makes the bra fitting experience quite painless and dare I say fun!
Soma bras update#
Bras, even when properly cared for don’t last longer than that, so it makes sense to visit a skilled bra boutique to get a fitting and update your lingerie drawer. Did you know you should get a bra fitting every six months? Your body is constantly changing due to gravity, age, exercise, weight, and more. When was the last time you were fitted for a bra? If you’re like most of America, the answer is that it’s been far too long. This post is sponsored by Soma, however the idea, the content, the wording is all mine.
