28 and 30 Inch Bra Bands: Where To Find The Best Bras In Your Size
Supportive bras with 28 and 30 inch bands can be difficult to find. These band sizes are outside of core sizing in the lingerie industry, which is comprised of 32-36 bra bands and composes the majority of the sizing selection you see in most clothing stores. People who wear 28 and 30 inch bands may wear anywhere from an AA to K cup or larger. Small band, small cup sizes (28AA-30B) often struggle the most with finding bras that fit, especially when they’re looking for a t-shirt bra or strapless bra with molded cups. Small band, big cup sizes (28DD-K+) have a larger selection of full-busted bras to choose from. These sizes can be found at many independent lingerie stores and online.
We’re firm believers that everyone who wears bras should have access to beautiful bras in their size that fit – that means bralettes for full-busted people and seamless t-shirt bras for small busted people, too. Fortunately, the lingerie industry is ever evolving and always looking for new ways to make people happy and satisfy their needs and wants.
If you wear a 28 or 30 inch band, you’re in luck. Here are the best places to shop for these band sizes:
Local lingerie boutiques
Before you take your search online, you might just find the perfect bra in your local lingerie shop. Independent lingerie boutiques are very different from the lingerie shopping experience you’re used to from retailers like Victoria’s Secret. Firstly, lingerie boutiques have trained bra fitters that are experts in their craft. These boutiques have strict requirements for fittings and put their employees through a lengthy certification process before they’re able to fit bras on their own. Second, lingerie boutiques have a much larger size range than most chain lingerie stores. They have close relationships with the lingerie brands they carry and stock sizes anywhere from AAA to N cups – ensuring that you’ll get a quality bra fitting from a lingerie expert and bras in the sizes that fit you best.
