If your band is too loose, the weight of your breasts will pull down the front of your bra. If you can fit more than two fingers under your bra band, the band size is too big. Try going down one band size and up one cup size. For example, if you are sagging in a size 36C bra, try 34D instead.

Why do I always have to pull up my bra?
If you’re on the tightest setting and your bra still rides up in the back, you either need to go down a band size or your bra has stretched over time and you just need a new bra! A back band that is too large will ride up your back and sit too high up.
Why do my breast keep slipping out of my bra?
If your breasts are spilling out of the bra cup, you’re not wearing the correct size. Similar to side overflow, cup overflow is easy to fix: trade-in for a bigger cup size and give your breasts some much-needed breathing room! If you’re a 34B, trade up a half-size to 34B ½ or a whole cup size to 34C if you need it.
How do you know if your bra cup is too big?
There’s a gap at the top of the cups.
When you look down at your bra do you notice space between your breasts and the cup? If so, it’s too big. If you aren’t able to see any gaps while standing up, try leaning over while looking into a mirror. If there is extra space in your cups it’s time for a new size.
What does it mean when your bra rides up?
When the band rides up the back, it’s an indicator the band is too big. Without providing proper support, a band that’s too large can prompt the breast tissue to weigh down on the cups and pull the band upwards in the back.
What is my correct bra size?
Measure loosely around the fullest part of your bust. Subtract the band size from this measurement. Use this number to determine your cup size according to the table below. Example: if your ribcage measurement is 31, and your bust measurement is 37, your bra size is a 34C: 31+3=34, so 34 is your band size.

Should I go up a cup size or band size?
Proper cup fit is influenced by band size. As the band size changes, so does the cup size. For every band size you go down, you should go up one cup. If you are in a 34D with a good cup fit, but want to go down to a 32 band, you would go to a 32DD for a tighter band with the same cup fit.
How tight should a bra band be?
Your bra band should be snug, but not painful. And if you feel like your bra band is already as tight as you’d want it, remember that you can also increase support from the band by choosing a wider, longline style. A very narrow band can simply cut in, without providing much support at all!
