If you are constantly battling shoulder-digging straps, half-empty cups or flattened boobs, then you have to check out Macy’s Fit Matters guide. This online tutorial is designed to help women of every shape find the most comfortable and flattering bra for them. Their Perfecting Performance guide answers any question you could think of, and even helps you identify some you may not. For example, one of the suggestions is to see if you are wearing your bra correctly…it may sound silly, but an adjustment here or there may make a world of difference.
So we ask you…what’s your bra fit horror story? Overflowing cups in an ill-fitting bridesmaids dress? Straps always showing under your favorite tank top? Let us know your biggest bra blunder and check out Macy’s Fit Matters for ways to correct and perfect your bra wardrobe.

Sometimes we get so caught up with what’s on the outside that our foundations get ignored…a fact that I’m totally guilty of. Our bodies change so much over time that the same bra we wore only 2 years ago may not fit the same any more.
For me, I’ve recently lost a bit of weight, and of course the first place for it to go was in my bra. I have huge gaping spaces now where my cups once runneth over. I honestly don’t even know what to look for in shopping for a new bra!
I’m also a little shy when it comes to strangers touching my body, so I’m not too jazzed about going to a special lingerie store and getting fitted. Lucky for me, Macy’s has a great tutorial to help me find the rigiht bra for my shape and for an ensemble. Whether you are looking for something to go under a plunging v-neck, or simply some alluring lingerie for when the lights go out, Macy’s can guide you to the right bra for you.
The right fitting undergarments can help you stand taller, look sleeker and give you more support in ways you could never imagine. And lets face it…new undies are fun! Check out Bra Fit 101 at macys.com now, and toss out those ancient and ill fitting bras already!
