Bra Shopping Online Vs. In-Person: Which Is Better?

Disclosure - this is a collaborative post. 

It is challenging to find the best wireless bra, strapless bra, or any bra for that matter. It is a common struggle among women to find the right bra. No matter the measurements or equations or test fits, it seems that finding the perfect bra is beyond reach. Still, you must try.

There are more opportunities than ever before to find the best bra for your bust. The number of retailers both online and in-person is always expanding. That said, what is the best way to shop for a bra? Is it necessary to see and feel the bra in person or can you rely on consumer reviews? There are pros and cons for both shopping options.

Online Shopping = Convenience

You can type in a search for the best t-shirt bra and find plenty of online reviews and retailers proclaiming the definitive bra. The question you have to ask yourself is can you trust the information?
Online shopping is convenient, personal, and for the most part stress-free. You can browse the collections of numerous retailers in a matter of minutes, not hours, allowing you to assess a variety of bra styles and reviews.

While online shopping is convenient, you want to be careful about the sites you trust and purchase from. Always check the authenticity of an online retailer and make sure that they use proper security measures to protect your payment and identification information.

You should also check sellers against different licensing bodies and consumer protection agencies. A legitimate business should have a license and an excellent standing in the industry.
If it is a newer business without a lot of background information, look for consumer reviews. Don't just look for glowing recommendations or negative reviews. You want to read through several reviews and take note of specific issues with products, customer service, and transactions.


In-Person Gives You an Accurate Fit

The primary issue with online shopping is that you don't get to see or experience the bra in person before you buy it. Bras are not one-size-fits-all. Your measurements and body shape play a significant role in how the bra fits.

Online shops may have resources like guides detailing what is my bra size. The guides are helpful for at-home measurements, but mistakes can happen. 

Shopping at a brick-and-mortar location gives you access to the salespeople. Most lingerie stores hire and train sales associates, helping them become experts in sizing. Being able to talk to an actual person and seek advice from someone knowledgeable can make all the difference when shopping for a bra.
If you have purchased your fair share of bras over the years, you may not have a problem buying a bra online. That said, if you are new to the bra shopping experience or are still developing, buying a bra in person at a store is the best way to go.

Are you ready to buy your next bra? Visit a local retailer or check out a popular website to see the options and talk to a knowledgeable salesperson.
