Say goodbye to straps that won’t stay put
Will your straps not stay put? Are you constantly reaching under your shirt to readjust your bra straps? In addition to being bothersome, this bra woe can lead to neck and back problems in the long run – especially if you have larger breasts. Fortunately, the solution is simple. With the clever tips from our Marie Jo lingerie stylists, you can say goodbye to straps that won’t stay put.
Why won't my straps stay put?
Our Marie Jo lingerie stylists have a clever trick to check how your straps fit. Can you fit two fingers between your shoulder and the strap? If so, you’ve found the right fit. If you can easily fit four or five fingers under the straps, they're not tight enough. As a result, they’ll slip off.
The solution to straps that won't stay put
Loose bra straps are one of the most common bra woes. If you have this problem, the first step is to identify the cause. This will help you find the right solution.
Your straps are too long: All Marie Jo styles have adjustable straps that can be lengthened and shortened.
Your bra straps have lost their stretch: Can’t get your straps as tight as you like anymore? Then it's time for a new, premium-quality Marie Jo bra.
Your straps slip off and your cups don't fit: You’re probably in the wrong size. Enlist the help of a Marie Jo lingerie stylist.
Tip: Always check the length of your straps when you put on your bra. The straps can stretch out each time you wash your bra. You can tighten them as needed to ensure the perfect Marie Jo fit all day long.
Discover your perfect bra size
Solve all your bra problems with a Marie Jo bra in the right size. Are you wearing the right bra size? Take the test! Check your band size. Fasten your bra on the middle hook. Does the band lie flat against your back? Can you fit three fingers under it? Then you're in the right size. This is important, as the band accounts for 80% of the support
