THE TOP 10 REASONS TO CONSIDER A CUSTOM FIT BRA
Have you ever begun an exercise class only to drop out because your breast ached from lack of support while running or jumping?
Do you have to wear padded bras to give yourself a fuller look?
Does your bust line “bounce” when you walk while wearing your “everyday” bra?
Do your bra straps dig into your shoulders leaving red and painful marks and grooves?
Do you have a drawer full of bras, but none that fit really comfortably?
Does your bra ride up in the back because you tighten the straps to give you added support?
Is there noticeable “cleavage” above your bust when wearing a basic support bra?
Are there “wings” under your arms, which are actually rolls of breast tissue, due to the bust line being pushed back too far?
Do you feel department stores carry “skimpy and sexy” styled bras and not a good selection of support bras?
Does your underwire bra leave grooves in your bust?
THE HISTORY BEHIND THE BRA
Custom fitting of
intimate apparel can be traced back to the Renaissance period where
women would be fitted in specially designed corsets that would uplift
and enhance their bust and minimize their waistline and tummy. Although
the desired effect was achieved, the price they paid was dear. These
contraptions were extremely uncomfortable, restricted movement and
caused poor circulation not to mention a poor disposition.
Marie
Tucek is credited with patenting the actual first 'breast supporter' in
1893. Her foundation garment was similar to the bras sold today, having
pouches for the breasts to sit in.
A 30-YEAR TRADITION
The
Custom Fit Bra Company has custom fitters who have been fitting for
over thirty years. More like Marie Tucek, rather than their
counterparts from the Renaissance period, these custom fitters improve
the appearance of the bust by placing them in the appropriate position
on the chest. They do this through a system of pulling lost breast
tissue into the cup and securing it in a unique triangle where it rests
on a supporting band. This in turn produces a trimmer looking
silhouette. Yet the results are beautiful and oh so comfortable. Now
through the advances of technology and the internet these fitters will
share their secrets so that you can fit yourself in this amazing
“Custom Fit Bra”.
EXERCISE BRAS
