These signs and frequent adjustment of your bra indicate that you need a better fit. For our full-figured customer who needs more coverage and support, WE HAVE YOUR SIZE TOO! Check out our full-figured styles in expanded sizes and look for these features: boning on the sides; underwire or wide bottom band; wide, rigid straps; full, supportive cups.

Please consider this when ordering. Note: select garments will fit an average to slightly fuller or longer torso due to the stratchability of the fabric and/or the hook-and-eye adjustment. These features will be indicated in the item description.
Long Legs and Briefs
Order by WAIST SIZE. To make sure WAIST SIZE will also fit hips, subtract your WAIST SIZE (C) from your HIP MEASUREMENT (D). Then refer to the item description for "Fits hips (number of ") larger than waist". Please consider this when ordering.
