Hey ppl. Sorry this is a really noob question.
How do you guys choose the right bra? I mean yea I know cup size and all, but how do you girls determine the right cut and all that? Different brands sizes different right? Does padding add to cup size? Is it that if you have to tighten the straps to make it fit then it doesn't actually fit you?

Haha I know I've been a girl all my life but I'm just so clueless somebody help me!

you may go to xixili boutique and they will tell you everything you need to know. they will even teach you the correct way to wear bra and to teach you what is there to look into in order to see if it's the right bra for you.

all my mum teach me is must buy full cup bra instead of half cup because half cup look ugly in the outer part especially with a tight t shirt
for me
i don't like to add padding in...i feel uncomfortable...
i don't know about others

i myself prefer half cup bra, because when we wear low neck shirt, the cup won't be visible from the top.

the only thing that concern me when buying bra is the durability...i hate buying brand such as pierre cardin, but after a few washes, the bra look out of shape with dented padding...

so far, i'm satisfy with xixili as well....not too expensive also

Hmm I guess its good to have both full and half cup depending on what top you're wearing.

How much are xilili bras normally? Any other recommendations for other brands like lasenza, sloggi, triumph etc?

There are many types of bra, just go into any lingerie shop and speak to the sales person and they can do the measurements for you.

It depends on what type of bra you like and also how your breasts size are. Push ups are great for certain tops but t-shirt bra is better for t-shirts. Padding doesn't 'add' cup sizes, it just helps with the push up effect. The sales person will be able to tell you more. There's also lace bras and cotton bras and those with underwire and those without. Important thing is to always try on the bra before buying it.

What recommendations are you looking for? Xixili bras are pretty awesome and quite reasonable. Cheap bras like Scarlet can never last. Sloggi and Triumph are under the same company just that one cater for younger girls and the other for older women.

you should be putting it in a bra bag and/or set wash cycle on delicate.

How abt Audrey's bras? Any good?

Audrey's bras are good n affordable. shud buy during offer to save money. hahah. currently they have promotion buy 2 free 3. u shud check them out

usually the sales lady would help me measure and choose. for me different cutting sometimes different size.the lady would tell me guide me on which is suitable. That's how I go about choosing bras. Look for the lady with the measuring tape! I rely solely on them -=_=
