胸衣選得好，胸部沒煩惱

對於很多女性來說，胸衣真是讓她們又愛又恨，穿也不是，脫也不是。一方面，它可以幫助支撐胸部，塑造良好的體態，但另一方面，它也可能讓人勒得難受，甚至引發乳腺疾病。不過專家表示，出現這種不適感是因爲你沒有選對正確的罩杯。那麼，怎樣選擇合適的胸衣？一起來學習一下吧。

Many of us will be familiar with the relief that comes with taking your bra off at the end of the day - however, experts say this shouldn't have to be a relief.
許多人都很熟悉一天結束時脫下內衣的解放感，但是專家表示，這種解放感本是不應該出現的。

Lyn Lewis CEO of Journelle and Teddies for Bettys founder Ashley Kelsch have revealed their little known tips for selecting the perfect (and most comfortable) bra every time.
Journelle首席執行官林恩•劉易斯和Teddies for Bettys創始人艾希莉•凱爾茨透露了她們選擇完美且最舒適的胸衣的祕訣。

Speaking to Brit+Co the lingerie experts recommend following these simple tips to avoid pinching bra straps and gaping cups forever more.
爲了避免內衣帶太緊和罩杯太大的問題，這兩位內衣專家向Brit+Co推薦了以下一些簡單的竅門。

USE THE SCOOP AND SWOOP METHOD
“掏挖式”穿法

Many of us will be familiar with the idea that once we have our bra on it is necessary to lift and pull the breast forward to reposition it in place.
衆所周知，當我們穿上胸衣的時候，必須向前提拉一下胸部，將其位置擺正。

However, close attention should be paid when trying on a bra the first time as to how the breast sits after using the so-called 'scoop and swoop' method.
但是一定要注意，當你第一次穿一件胸衣時要注意用“掏挖式”穿法時胸部所在的位置。

Ashley Kelsh told Brit+Co: 'The underwire or mold should hit just below your underarm and all your breast tissue should be pulled forward'.
艾希莉•凱爾茨對Brit+Co表示：“胸衣內的下支撐線或鋼圈應該就在你的腋下，你的整個胸部應該被拉向前。”

If you notice any skin escaping from the front or sides of the bra then it is likely you need the next size up.
如果胸部從前面或者側面漏出來，那麼你能需要大一號的尺寸。

PAY NO ATTENTION TO CUP SIZE
不要在意罩杯

Few of us will mention our chest measurement when recalling our bra size and will refer to ourselves as a certain cup.
當提到胸衣尺寸時，我們很少會想到自己的胸圍，而是會提到自己是某個罩杯的。

But, according to experts, this is where you are going wrong when bra shopping with cup size redundant when it comes to the perfect fitting.
但是，據專家介紹，根據罩杯購買胸衣是錯誤的，這樣比最佳尺寸大。

Lyn Lewis explains: 'The breast-tissue-mass of a woman wearing a 32D is equivalent to the breast-tissue-mass of a woman wearing a 34C and a woman wearing a 36B'.
林恩•劉易斯解釋道：“一個罩杯32D的女性的胸部和34C、36B的女性的胸部一樣大。

This is good news for those who have a common bra size and struggle to find a style in their measurements - simply alter the size according to Lewis' guidance.
這對於罩杯普通且想要知道自己的尺寸的女性來說是個好消息——你只需要根據劉易斯下面的指導改變尺寸。

DIFFERENT STYLES = DIFFERENT SIZES
風格不同=尺寸不同

There is no one size fits all according to Kelsch who says that different styles of bra and where you purchase them could alter what size you need to buy.
據凱爾茨稱，胸衣的風格不同，你需要購買的尺寸也會有所變化，沒有固定的胸衣尺寸。

She explains: 'Some brands are made for full cups and would swallow a woman who doesn’t have a lot of breast tissue on top or on the sides.'
她說：“有些品牌的胸衣是整杯式的，如果女生的胸前或側邊的乳房組織不是很多，那麼會被完全罩住。

FIVE CHECKS FOR THE PERFECT BRA FIT
檢查胸衣是否十分合身的五種方法

1. Underband – should be parallel to the floor and secure enough that only two fingers can fit under the elastic
1. 下圍——應該與地面平行，且確保鬆緊帶下只能容下兩指

2. Centre front – should sit completely flat against the sternum
2. 正面中心——應該完全平貼胸骨

3. Side wire – this should be flat against the ribcage and never digging into breast tissue
3. 側邊鋼圈——應該完全與胸腔貼合併不會擠到乳腺組織

4. Cup capacity – breasts should sit fully into the cup without any spillage
4. 罩杯大小——胸部應該完全位於杯中，沒有擠在外面

5. Straps – these should be adjusted to just fit two fingers on top of each other, which will give the right pressure for your shoulder
5. 肩帶——肩帶應該調整到剛好在每條肩帶下容納兩指，這樣肩膀受到的壓力正好
