How often should I have a bra fitting?
We recommend having a professional bra fitting every 6 to 12 months. Your body changes more than you might realize — weight fluctuations, hormonal shifts, aging, pregnancy, nursing, and changes in activity level can all affect your bra size and the styles that work best for you.
If you've experienced any significant body change — weight loss or gain, pregnancy, surgery, or even starting a new fitness routine — it's a good idea to come in for a fresh fitting rather than waiting for your next scheduled visit.
Bra fittings at Allure are always complimentary. Just walk into any of our seven locations — no appointment needed.
