Expert Bra Fitting and Luxury Brands in Hexham
The Band
The Straps
The Straps
The band provides most of the support.
- It should sit straight across your back
- Feel firm, but not tight
- Stay in place without riding up
If your band is riding up, it’s likely too loose.

The Straps
The Straps
Straps should support, not do all the work.
- They should sit comfortably on your shoulders
- Not dig in or leave marks
- Not slip off
If your straps are doing all the lifting, your band isn’t doing its job.
The Cups
The Centre (Between the Cups)
The Centre (Between the Cups)
The cups should fully contain your bust.
- No spillage over the top or sides
- No gaps or wrinkling
- Smooth, natural shape
Every brand and style fits slightly differently - which is why trying options matters.

This is often overlooked and more important than most people think.
- Should sit flat against your chest

This is a key sign your bra is fitting correctly.
When Should You Get a Bra Fitting?
We recommend a bra fitting if:
- You haven’t had one in the last 6–12 months
- Your weight has changed
- After surgery or medical changes
- You’re buying a different style (strapless, sports, swimwear)
- You’ve never had a professional fitting before
Or simply… if something doesn’t feel quite right.
