The bra is a very important piece of women's clothing, yet women often waste it because they fail to use it properly. Yet putting on a bra correctly isn't difficult and can be done ( as with a blouse or trousers) with a few simple steps to reap all the benefits, starting with the most important: proper weight distribution. This helps avoid back pain and makes the breasts appear more lifted and firm.

As a you choose
- Make sure it is seamless and without underwire.
- Choose a model in light fabric
- Remember that high-band bras under the cups support the breasts better
- The shoulder straps, however, must be wide and adjustable to allow for perfect weight distribution.
The right size
Bra size is made up of two elements:
- Number (e.g. 75, 80, 85, 90): indicates the circumference of the chest under the breasts.
- Letter (e.g. B, C, D, E): indicates the depth of the cup, that is, the difference between the chest and the most protruding part of the breast.
- The size of the bralet changes over the years. And not always and not only because of breast volume. Therefore, for choose il bralet right it is always a good idea to try it.
- Il bralet right It must support the torso 90 percent with the band and 10 percent with the shoulder straps.

As a it is worn
- You must not get the size wrong, and just one size more or less makes a notable difference, as in this case it is just a waste: the support effect of the bralet It's null and void, and the side band has no function. And a larger size certainly won't make you look bustier, but will simply be uncomfortable. With a bralet too tight and therefore too small, however, you will even struggle to breathe.
- To put it on, start with the straps so you can adjust them as best as possible. Slide them down your arms, keeping a slightly forward position, letting your breasts fall into the cups. This will distribute the weight of your breasts evenly within the bra. Then, close it with the outermost hook.
- Stand up and use both hands to position your breasts from the side, ensuring they fit perfectly into the cups. The band should be snug, but not too tight.

- Breasts are not always the same size, so the straps must be adjusted taking into account correct symmetry.
Il bralet during pregnancy
Pregnancy is not only one of the most beautiful times in a woman's life, but also one of the most delicate. During the nine months of gestation, it's important to pay attention not only to your diet but also to your body, starting with breast care, which is more prone to stretch marks and sagging during this period.
From the first months of pregnancy, the breasts undergo a series of changes, including an increase in volume that prepares them for breastfeeding . The breasts do not have their own muscles, and for this reason, they require good support, which is achieved through the use of an appropriate bra.
It's therefore a good idea to evaluate, month after month, whether the bra you've been using up to that point still supports your breasts well or whether it needs to be replaced with a different size. You should change bras as soon as you begin to feel uncomfortable and tight.
Keep in mind that by the end of your pregnancy, you may have gained a couple of cup sizes. After the birth of your baby and the end of breastfeeding, however, your breasts will shrink, although most of the time they almost never return to their pre-pregnancy size.
In some cases, it is necessary to change to a larger bra size starting from the 8th week, in others from the 24th, although in most cases, the bra needs to be replaced again around the 36th: in this case, it is preferable to directly purchase a model that is also suitable for breastfeeding.
