How do I find my correct bra size?

To find your correct bra size, measure your underbust (band size) and your fullest bust measurement. Subtract the band size from the bust measurement — each inch difference corresponds to a cup size (1 inch = A, 2 = B, 3 = C, etc.). The Bra Shop Australia stocks bras from size 10A to 36K, so our team can help you find the perfect fit.

What bra sizes does The Bra Shop stock?

The Bra Shop Australia stocks an extensive range of bra sizes from 10A through to 36K, including full-figure, plus size, mastectomy, maternity, and sports bras. We specialise in hard-to-find sizes including DD, E, F, FF, G, GG, H, HH, J, and K cups.

How often should I replace my bra?

Most bras should be replaced every 6–12 months with regular wear. Signs it's time for a new bra include the band riding up, straps constantly slipping, wires poking through, or the cups wrinkling or gaping. Rotating between a few bras extends their lifespan.

What is the best bra for everyday wear?

The best everyday bra depends on your size and preference. T-shirt bras with seamless moulded cups are ideal under fitted clothing. For larger cup sizes (D and above), an underwired bra with wide straps and a wide back band provides the best all-day support. The Bra Shop stocks everyday bras from brands including Triumph, Naturana, Berlei, and Finelines.

How do I wash and care for my bras?

Hand washing in cool water with a gentle detergent is the best way to care for bras. If machine washing, use a lingerie bag on a delicate cold cycle. Always air dry — never put bras in the dryer as heat damages the elastic and underwire casing. Fasten the hooks before washing to prevent snagging.

What plus-size bras does The Bra Shop stock?

The Bra Shop Australia specialises in plus-size and full-figure bras from sizes 14 through to 36K. Brands include Naturana, Sculptresse by Panache, Lady Emprezz, Glamorise, and Trulife. We stock underwired, wire-free, minimiser, sports, mastectomy, and maternity styles in larger sizes.

What is a minimiser bra and who should wear one?

A minimiser bra redistributes breast tissue to create a smaller, lower profile — it can reduce the appearance of the bust by up to one cup size. It's ideal for women who want clothes to fit better across the chest or who prefer a less prominent silhouette. The Bra Shop stocks minimiser bras from Naturana in sizes up to 24DD.

What plus-size swimwear does The Bra Shop stock?

The Bra Shop stocks plus-size swimwear from sizes 16 to 30, including one-pieces, tankinis, and swim shorts. Brands include Genevieve, Today's Woman, and La Sculpte, with features like underwire, tummy control panels, and chlorine resistance. We also stock plus-size rash tops and swim shorts for extra coverage.
