 How to get correct fit! April 24, 2008

I am a fit specialist and very familiar with this bra. In this particular bra 9955 Dream Tisha; band runs tight; go up in band. If your band measurement is 36 band, try a 38 band.
Ladies, to get the best fit, be fitted by a fit specialist, especially when you are full fit. Please, don't get hung up on the size, but be very, very concerned about fit; correct fit is every thing. Most of us wear a different size in differnt bras. No one and I mean no one, wears a 36D in all bras, never, ever buy a bra you have not tried on. You are wasting your money. Get the best bra you can possibly afford that really fits you right, lifts and supports.
Nothing should be popping out over the top of the cup, if it is go up in cup. Band should be snug to give full lift, but not cutting into you. With bra on raise your arms straight up. Watch front of band in mirror, if it moves up much, band is too big, if bust falls out the bottom, cup is too small. Try this with all your bras at home. Get rid of the bras that don't fit, because gravity is now taking over all day long in the wrong fitting bra.
A correct fitting bra should hook on the loosest setting, so when it stretches you can go tighter. Never purchase a new bra you must hook on the tightest setting. There is no where to go when it stretches. So, this will not lift you any more.
Clothing is designed to fit at the natural bustline, halfway between your elbow and shoulder. If you are not there, you don't know if your clothing fits properly.
Listen up on this, full fit ladies. If you wear the same couple of bras all the time. Your body oils break down the fibers in the bras, then they are worn out in a few months. But you are still wearing these a year later and sagging down to your elbow. No one should look like that. No part of the bust, should be lying on the stomach.
Purchase 4 - 6 quality bras that really lift and support you at the natural bustline. Let these air out a day or two before you wear the same bra again. Rotate wearing these bras. This gives you a bra wardrobe that all equally support you.
I fitted my niece in this bra, she wears a 44F. She sweats easily, so I thought it might be too hot for her. But here's what she said, it's great because it lifts the bust up off the belly, so she does not sweat under there any more. Plus, she said her posture was much better and I could tell this too. She was probably lifted at least 3".
Also, think about this ladies, once you get the bust lifted to the natural bustline. You have more torso, giving you a longer leaner look. Ok now, there are no more excuses for not having a great fitting bra. Believe me your back will thank you.

I am a 38 DD and 175lbs. It is very hard to find a good supporting bra for real breast. I love this bra, I own 3. I alternate them all week. I have had them for over a year. They have not lost their shape, they have not frayed, they have not stetched. The give me a nice shape in the front and no rolls in the back.
The thick cups give shape not bulk. I will never buy another bra again. It was worth the $100 investment to have great bra's all year.

This bra is a must for those of us who have been overly blessed up top. You do need to go to Le Mystere's web site, measure yourself according to their sizing, and then order the bra. The sizing is just a little bit different. Also, at first the band of the bra will seem to fit too snugly, but that is actually the way bras are supposed to fit for better support. And, they do stretch some after wear. If you're tired of having a saggy look, the headlights showing, or the muffin top, then try this bra. It's expensive, but you'll spend a lot more in your search for a better one in the end. Quit buying those cheap bras from the local WMart. You have never been pleased with them in the past, and it wont be any different now. I have bags full of old ones to prove my point. BUT, DEFINITELY GO BY THEIR SIZING ON THEIR WEBSITE BEFORE ORDERING!

I first purchased this bra in a specialty bra boutique for 139.00CA. I know it's a lot for a bra, but I was too happy that I found a bra that fit great. Up until that day I wore a 36D or 36DD, after getting fitted I am now a 32 G. You have to understand that I hate shopping for bras, I never found the right one and always walk out of the store thinking that I should get a breast reduction.
This bra is the one that Oprah wears and loves. Now it is my favourite thing.
I have to agree with the other customers that it is not the prettiest bra if you are a bigger chested gal like my self, but you forget about that when you put a t-shirt or blouse on, because you really do look 10 pounds thinner around the waist and you chest is where it should be.
If you are a bigger chested gal, I would suggest before buying this bra, if you are not too sure what size you are, go and get fitted at a proper store....a specialty store. Most stores only sell bras in the A-DD cup, that is why you should go to a specialty store, the sales women know a lot more.

This is a wonderful bra, especially if you are large busted. It is comfortable and supports beautifully. I would recommend a professional fitting before you buy. I normally wear a 34DD but in this bra I wear a 36E. Gives a nice shape with no visible lines or pinching. This is now the only bra I will buy. I am ordering my 4th.
