Bikini Boot Camp BLOG

Join us for our fabulous programs beginning in March!

For years I thought I was a 34B. After all, that is what my mom bought for me at Sears when I asked for my first bra. That is what she wore and our body shapes were similar. I was busty for my 5’2” frame and when I was the first girl to develop in school this made me all the more self conscious. So off I went into 34B land. The bras were ‘ok’ but it seemed like I was always adjusting, tightening, tugging. Often I would wear a medium shirt because I felt this better fit over my chest. Tensoring or double bras were not uncommon during dance practice and performances.

Fast forward into adulthood. Bra fittings, sizing, measuring at specialty stores, department stores and just trying off the rack. $100’s of dollars spent on ill fitting bras, wearing undershirts under my clothes to help with support. 34B, 34C, 34D, 36B wonder bras, pushup bras, miracle bras, I tried them all.

On my first visit to SHE Apparel Bankers Hall and I walk right in to one of the owners, Brandon as he was just leaving. I was a bit taken aback because the first question he asks is what my size is. 34B I tell him and he says “No way you are.” But I have been fit at a specialty bra store. And he replies, “Yes I am sure you have but have you been fit at OUR bra store? You look like a 30 and 28, like my wife.” I am surprised and had no intention of being fit, I just wanted to pick up my new standard 34B but then I decided what do I have to lose?

Into a room I go with the female Manager. “The reason why you have been put in a 34 is that most places do not carry smaller sizes except for a few styles, so even if you need something smaller, they will put you in the next size up because that is the closest size they have.” What?!? All the years of searching for a fit only to find out it has all been an untruth!

“We carry size 28 to 48 here and for styles that we don’t have the correct size we can alter them to custom fit you.” Whoa?! Custom fit? So after a try on of a 34 she instantly knows that I am not this and brings in a 30D. Eureka! She brings in others to try and alters them to fit my shape and again, Bam! I am a new woman. A week later I pick up my 4 new bras, yes 4, and I STRUT out of the store.

Over the summer I gained a new found freedom that I never knew before. Gone were the ever present undershirts I wore under tshirts to make me feel more held in because I felt held in, well shaped AND confident without them. Even my man noticed. “Wow, nice hooters!” he said. The ultimate vote of confidence.

Bra or bathing suit shopping or fittings are not my favourite thing to do but SHE Apparel has made it a bit more enjoyable. They have helped me find my fit and I have finally made friends with my breasts!
