Life Hack: How to measure yourself to find your correct bra size

Over 36% of women in Ireland have not had a bra fitting in over five years

Wearing the wrong bra size can lead to issues like back pain, so it's surprising many women are wearing the wrong size, not getting measured regularly, or even avoiding a bra sizing altogether. Earlier this year, research commissioned by Marks and Spencer Ireland found that over 36% of women in Ireland have not had a bra fitting in over five years, and 21.5% have never been fitted at all.

The survey was part of the brand’s BraFit campaign, urging customers to get regular bra fittings. While many shops like M&S offer in-store fittings, many people would prefer to measure themselves at home for various reasons. With that in mind, here are some tips for finding your own bra size from the comfort of your home.
