How to Properly Wear a Dance Belt:

Below, you’ll see guidelines on how to properly wear a dance belt;

Step 1 – After stepping into the dance belt and bringing it up to the waist like standard underwear, it should be snugger than regular underwear due to its supportive functionality. 

Step 2 – Adjust your genitals accordingly (NEVER TUCK DOWN). As you reach into the pouch, pull everything upwards and make sure the testicles are at the front with everything else pointing upwards. Your penis should be facing upward (12 o’clock) against your lower abdomen.

Step 3 – Gently pull downward and lift the back to fit the dance belt; the thong should sit comfortably between the buttocks; if needed pull the waistband up higher to keep tension in the thong. 

Step 4 – Try some simple moves to test the dance belt; adjust if the belt moves or doesn’t feel secure. Picking a dance belt resembling your skin tone is important, that way it will blend against the skin and allow you to wear tights or pants without it being noticeable. This is why we do not recommend a white dance belt. 

Once you feel comfortable, it’s time to show the world what you can do. At first, you might feel a little discomfort but you’ll soon adapt and find the right tightness for you.

How To Measure Your Bra Size:

• Get Ready - Put on a bra without padding. This will help to generalize shape ever so slightly as well as lifting the breast so as to access the ribcage better.
• Ribcage Measurement- Exhale, releasing the air from your lungs, and wrap the measuring tape snugly just below the breasts around the ribcage. Write down this number.
• Cup Measurement- Loosely wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your breast. Write this number down.
• Doing the Math– Subtract your ribcage measurement from your cup size measurement.  We start counting Cups at B. 

Remember, the cup size measurement is a starting point, and not written in stone. Breast tissue firmness, fullness and shape are variables that change with each individual.  A common example of mis-measuring might have a shallow breasted woman measuring at a smaller cup size than is truly ideal for her body. Also note, that each brand has a multitude of styles, and they might be for petite, average or full figures, so each style will fit slightly differently even though they are the same size.  Some brands also offer full busted styles and sizes, which accommodate petite to average band sizes with ample  cups. 

Nonetheless, below is a size chart which will tell you what you are measuring at in cup size after subtracting your band from your cup measurement. The below chart is based upon US and French sizing.   (UK sizing is different, and offers larger cup sizes than most US or French brands. A UK G cup is the equivalent of a US I cup. Best to consult with someone who has knowledge of these sizes and brands for the best fit.) 

Difference:

1″ - B    

2″ - C     

3″ - D    

4″ - DD/E       

5″ - DDD/E/F            

6″ - DDDD/F/G                

7″ - FF/H 

This should give you some idea as to where to start your bra fitting journey.  If you find yourself in New York City, come see us, and we’ll help you figure it out in a NY minute! 

Not All Cup Sizes Are Created Equal!

When placing an order for full busted sized bras, we work according to UK  cup sizing.  If you order a bra for someone who says they wear 32F, please try to ascertain the brand,  so we can determine the proper cup size.  A UK F equates to 4D.  A U.S F is only 3.  If reading from a tag, please locate the UK size. 

Lifespan of a Bra:

The average lifespan of a bra is 6-12 months, and is wholly dependent on how you wear and care for them. We advise you to have, at the very least, 2 bras in rotation to preserve and prolong the life of each. It’s OK to wear your bra more than once before washing, barring any messiness that might necessitate it — heavy sweat, spills, heavy perfumes. Our bras work hard to support us, and if we take care of them, they will take care of us. We Recommend Forever New Lingerie Wash, or the new, rinse free Soak.
