Can I get a good bra fit if I have scoliosis?
Yes. Scoliosis and spinal curvature can make bra fitting challenging, but working one-on-one with a professional fitter makes a significant difference. Because every body is different, a personalized approach is especially important when the spine isn't symmetrical.
Often, one strap needs to be adjusted dramatically tighter or looser than the other to close gaps in the cups and achieve a balanced fit. Bras with soft molded cups — such as those with memory foam or spacer foam — tend to be more forgiving and conform better to bodies with curvature.
Our fitters at every Allure location are experienced in working with customers who have scoliosis and other physical considerations. Walk in anytime — no appointment needed.
