LUXURY AT IT'S FINEST

DO I NEED TO BOOK AN APPOINTMENT? No but...from how a bra should fit, to different styles and what to wear them with, to what works best with different body types, there is a lot of information to absorb. Coup de Foudre bra specialist is your personal bra resource. At Coup de Foudre, we always keep size and style preferences for each customer on record, so if you have a question after your visit, feel free to drop us an email. The appointment ensures you are treated to an experience where bra shopping isn't a chore. It's important for every woman to have well-fitting, supportive bras that she feels comfortable and happy in. At Coup de Foudre, we form relationships with each of our customers so that she can have those wowza moments. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST FOR A FITTING? There is no fee charged for a bra fitting. While there is no committment to buy but why wouldn't you want to leave feeling comfortable and confident and support your local bra whisperer? Booking your fitting appointment to find out what your bra size is and purchasing your bras somewhere else or online is seen as disrespectful. We spend years honing a skill and to have you take our time and not buy is disheartening. DO I LEAVE MY BRA ON? After being greeted, me or another skilled fitter will direct you to the fitting room and ask you to dress down to your current bra. This is so the bra fitter can get an accurate measurement and find the best fit for you based on the shape and age of your breasts. Don't panic about having to stand around in your undies. There is always a clean robe in the changeroom for you to be comfortable. HOW DO YOU MEASURE? Coup de Foudre fitters are trained with the old fashioned tool of a measuring tape. As our experience lead us, we now mostly eyeball your ribcage (for the band) and fullest part of your breast (cup size). The goal is to fit you snugly and have all of your breast tissue in the cup. HOW COME I WAS A 38D AT THE OTHER STORE? Most department stores carry up to a DD, so we have a tendancy to think that anything above that must be outrageous. But here's the thing: Cup size is relative to the band size. The letter of your cup might sound scary because you're used to wearing a band that is too loose. For example, let's say you're used to wearing a 38D. You wear the bra at the tightest hook, it might move around a little, but the cup fits. I will likely measures you at a 34 band, and brings in a 34F. Naturally, you might find yourself thinking, "An F cup? No way, I was a D cup!" Here's what happened. The fitter put you into a band that you can wear on the most loose hook (instead of the tightest hook, like you were used to). Because cup and band size are proportional, when you go down in the band, you go up in the cup. So, an F might sound much bigger than a D, but it really depends on the band size! At the end of the day, the number doesn't matter. Your comfort level is the most important factor. CAN I BE ANOTHER SIZE? Yes. Because your comfort level is of utmost importance, you may be more comfortable in the "SISTER SIZE" which is a band higher and cup smaller. Different bra companies and each and every style will also be different in sizing. Still confused? Leave the fitting to us! ONCE SIZE AND STYLE ARE DETERMINED, WHAT'S NEXT? Once you have the bra on, your fit specialist will discuss the fit with you. We may ask to adjust your breast tissue in order to modify the way you are fitting in the bra. If you are not putting yourself into your bra properly (trust me many women shout with happiness when they realize they have been doing it wrong for years) You may feel awkward to talking about your breasts with a complete stranger but, breasts are what we do best. WHAT IF I WANT THAT PARTICULAR BRA?We work with women every day to address their needs and find bras best suited to meet them. Your Coup de Foudre specialist will discuss what style they are giving you and the whys. Bras are highly functioning & purposeful with decades of research. Plenty of development goes into each one for different body shapes and breast tissue density. With over 52 sizes, not each bra is made for everybody but every body can expect comfort.
