Henry Lingerie Reminders: Why I Always Wear It Wrong

Women suffer from inappropriate bras, such as stinging skin from exposed underwires, streching of the skin by shoulder straps and lower edge straps, and shoulder straps slipping. In more severe cases, it can lead to poor posture, as well as pain in the chest, back, shoulders, and neck. If the shoulder straps carry too much weight, the wearer may also experience muscle tension and fatigue, neck pain and tingling in the arms. Why are you always wearing the wrong thing? Don't swallow the big pattern of grievance. The fault of Chinese women wearing bras is the primary responsibility for the design defects of the bras themselves. In 1974, China began to use the direct measurement method for the production of bras. At present, the national body type database has not been established. The classification of bra sizes and the design of bra structures can only rely on the bust and under-bust in international standards. The size of the bra is the difference between the bust and the lower bust as the bra size.

      This method of measurement and specification is too simple and has no regional specificity, so it cannot provide a perfect basis for scientific and reasonable bra structure design. Female breasts have various shapes, such as conical, hemispherical, disc, etc., which cannot reflect the three-dimensional shape difference of female breasts. The body shape of different regions in China is quite different. Even if the difference between the bust and the under bust is the same, the breast height and breast spacing are also different.

      Bra production needs to deepen the basic understanding of female breast anatomy, so as to determine the relationship between body shape and bra fit, but compared with the continuous promotion of new measurement methods abroad, such as three-dimensional anthropometric technology, China still focuses on traditional measurement methods. Bra patternmakers are also often limited to years of production experience, and only use continuous fitting and error correction to improve the fit of the bra.

      In addition to the imperfect classification and production standards, China's current bra industry, like most other industries, is still a "porter" of "Western learning". Although some powerful brands have conducted anthropometric measurements and body shape analysis for domestic women and then researched the shape, most of the brands still choose to learn from or copy foreign ones in terms of style design. modified.

      Of course, apart from the bra itself, most Chinese women don't really know much about the bras they wear every day. According to a survey of some female college students at Jiangnan University, more than half of them have little knowledge of the basic knowledge of bras, such as the question of "understanding the meaning of size (34B or 75B)", only 35.35% of them clearly know, while some 12.10% did not understand at all. Most women are also too specific, unaware that breast size and shape can change with life cycle stage, reproductive stage, menopause and hormonal changes, always choosing to buy the same bra size.

      Knowledge changes fate, bra knowledge changes the fate of breasts, education about bra knowledge is very necessary... Three researchers from an Australian university distributed an expert-made educational manual on bra knowledge to 115 teenage female athletes. A group of women without a manual was compared. It was found that these people had very little understanding of bra knowledge, comfort, and chest support, but after four months, the women who received special education had improved significantly, and compared with the other group of women, the amount of bra knowledge increased by 19%.

      For a long time, Chinese women have preferred super thick bras with large lace or lace details. In recent years, young Chinese women's bra consumption concepts and behaviors have begun to change. In addition to style and style, they have become more concerned about the lightness of the bra. , health, comfort and quality fabrics. However, this small change still cannot hide the lack of knowledge about bras among Chinese women. In those places where the color of the breasts is changed, it is difficult for you to educate and popularize the knowledge about bras.
