1. The Essence of Bra Sizes

Understanding Bra Sizes

Bra sizes at Maison Libertine are crafted to offer both precision and luxury. Each size comprises a number and a letter, representing the band and cup size respectively.

  • Band Size: This measurement encircles your ribcage, just beneath your bust.
  • Cup Size: This is the difference between your bust measurement (around the fullest part of your breasts) and your band measurement.

How to Measure

To achieve an accurate measurement, use a soft measuring tape:

  1. Measure Your Band Size: Wrap the tape snugly around your ribcage, directly under your bust. Ensure it’s level and take the measurement in inches. Round up to the next even number if necessary.
  2. Measure Your Bust Size: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust, keeping it level.

Subtract the band size from the bust size to determine your cup size (1 inch difference = A, 2 inches = B, and so on).

2. Perfecting the Fit

Fitting Tips

When trying on a Maison Libertine bra, consider these tips for a perfect fit:

  • Band Fit: The band should be firm yet comfortable, sitting level around your body without riding up.
  • Cup Fit: Ensure your breasts fill the cups without spilling over or leaving gaps. The center gore should lay flat against your sternum.
  • Strap Fit: Straps should support without digging into your shoulders. Adjust them so you can slide two fingers underneath comfortably.

Addressing Common Fit Issues

  • Band Issues: If the band rides up, opt for a smaller size.
  • Cup Spillage: If there’s overflow, try a larger cup size.
  • Cup Gaping: If there’s gaping, consider a smaller cup or different style.

3. Caring for Your Lingerie

To maintain the beauty and longevity of your Maison Libertine lingerie, follow these care tips:

  • Hand Wash: Hand washing with gentle detergent preserves the delicate fabrics. If machine washing is necessary, use a lingerie bag and gentle cycle.
  • Air Dry: Avoid dryers. Lay your bras flat to air dry to maintain their shape and elasticity.
  • Rotation: Rotate your bras to give them time to recover their shape between wears.

4. Knowing When to Replace Your Bra

Even the finest bras will eventually need to be replaced. Look out for these signs:

  • Loss of Elasticity: When the band or straps no longer provide adequate support.
  • Underwire Problems: If the underwire starts poking out or feels uncomfortable.
  • Worn Cups: When the cups lose their shape or support.
