Two bras, same size, same brand - one fits and the other doesn't!

[monsterad]

Aibu to think that a brand should have standardised sizes in their own damn products!!

Yanbu. Have you contacted their customer services?

Nothing does. Looking at you H&M

Is the smaller one black by any chance? I always find black things in the same style are slightly smaller.

Nope! Both black. Freya idol bra in a 32E fits, Freya deco bra in a 32E doesn't fit!

Wtf.

Regardless, bravissimo are sending out a 32F in the deco. Keeping the idol

It's the change in style.different cut and shape.

It's shit isn't it? Although I do find some styles are more able to hold my boobs in a smaller size than others but I am right on the measurement between cup sizes.

Yeah.. but really, Freya should accommodate the differences in style and size accordingly

I bought two the same in different colours from H&M. One is definitely tighter than the other and has been from the start! I wear the black one when I'm feeling fatter/PMS

Seriously??? I think you're right though!

I have the same bra in two different colours one being black. The white one is a perfect fit but the black one is a bit too small!

Different styles work for differently shaped boobs though. I can't wear certain styles at all and can be different sizes in other styles.

It may depend on the shape rather than size IYKWIM, both of your boobs and of the cut of the bra.

But yes, sizes are generally a joke... I am now buying my favourite bra from eBay as it is no longer generally available. What I will do when that source runs dry, I don't know . I'm already limited to dodgy colours

Yeah, I genuinely think it's something to do with the dying process and the elastic.

I usually find Freya ones the best.

To be fair I stick with the deco as I know that’s what fits me best. Other brands in the same size don’t fit me... but I’ve got a strange shape 😬🤣

The deco is such a lovely bra. Just need a size up and it'll be perfect. The idol is nice, slightly higher cups, nice shape

@Prettybluepigeons is right - it’s to do with the shape - I always find I need to go up a size in balconette bras.

I bought two bras from the same shop, same size, similar style but one was D and one DD, didn't have them both in the same cup size . The D fitted perfectly the DD was too small!
