Even my boyfriend noticed, and he knows nothing about bra fit. However, the white one definitely fits me better. Once the straps are adjusted to the right length (which differs for both bras), the bras feel the same. The white bra has more room at the top edge of the cup, whereas the pink bra digs in to my tissue a bit. The other big thing that stands out to me - and you may have noticed in the last two photos, if you looked carefully - is that the two bras fit differently. So, if you recently “discovered” that you wear something like a 28D or 30F, but are having a hard time finding affordable bras in those sizes, I would recommend trying your “old” size at a retailer like Walmart. All of the budget brand bras I’ve tried for TLA (reviews coming up!) fit like this. If someone is telling you that the +4 method doesn’t work, they don’t buy budget bras. The fit of this bra, combined with my experience wearing other budget brand bras, also tells me something about bra fitting methods. If this bra was made in the size I usually purchase, it would be far too small in the band. The “+4 method” is a bra fitting method where you measure your underbust, add 4” to it to get your band size, and calculate your bra cup from there, adding 1 cup size for every inch difference.
The band is quite snug for a 34 band bra, and it’s clear to me that Fruit of the Loom fits bras using t he +4 measuring method. Since this bra starts at a 34 band, I sister sized up and purchased a size 34DDD. I know most people throw this kind of bra in the washing machine and dryer, but I would absolutely follow the care advice for this bra, which states to hand wash it in cold water and hang it to dry. This is a very cheap bra, so that is to be expected. The bar tacks seem like narrow afterthoughts to me. The overall stitching looks fine, but nothing has been extra reinforced. The straps are fully adjustable with sliders in the front, making it easy to fix the fit after you have the bra on. The opening has four rows of hook-and-eyes, which gives the bra more longevity as it stretches out. The front gore is underlined with stiff mesh, but the back band is one layer of jersey. All the findings are dyed to match the fabric perfectly. The foam cups are covered in the same jersey knit as the band. There are no bows, no ribbons, no decorations. This bra is the very definition of a basic contour t-shirt bra. The Fruit of the Loom T-Shirt Bra is available in sizes 34-38 A-DDD, 40C-DDD, and 42C-DD.
