Question: How can I choose proper size of underwear in the catalogue?
Regina Olenina, Head of Unique Products Division
Expert: To ensure perfect fit of the underwear, it is necessary to make several basic measurements (see the picture below).
When choosing a bra, wrap the measuring tape under your bust (line 2) and use the table to determine the band size. To measure the bust (line 1), put on a bra which sits well on you (without integrated padding or removable pads) and wrap the measuring tape around your chest so that it crosses over the fullest part of your bust. Use the table to determine the cup size (click the table to zoom it).

When checking the fit, do not forget to do the following:
- use the appropriate row of hook fastening;
- adjust straps as needed for maximum comfort;
- make sure that the breast sits comfortably in cups; put it to the center with hands;
take pads out or put them in, depending on cup tightness (for padded bras).
