How do you put your bra on?

I do the same as you but I know someone with a larger bust finds it easier to ensure everything is encased if they put it on and swivel round.

I do it your way. my mum always did it the other way.

you'd think i would have learned from her, wouldn't you?

I put it on back to front then swivel it and put my arms through. I always took ages trying to catch the hooks when I put it on and tried to do it up at the back. ? I need to see the hooks! lol

I do have quite big boobs though so perhaps that's a factor!

I put the cups upside down on my stomach, and put my arms round the back to fasten it. Then I pull the straps up & it rolls over into place.

I put it around me, do it up at the back (in the right place) and put my arms in. I have big boobs too!

Oooh, LTP & Kat you've added more variations. I am small of boob so maybe that has something to do with it. Hmmmm.

I'm a back to front then as well

Do up the hooks at the front, turn it round, arms into straps.

I'm big boobed.

I'm also feeling a little odd as I've never done it up at the back .....?

I always have it the wrong ay round and then swivel it and put my arms through. I thought everyone did it like this.

I'm with LTP on this one - do it up behind my back, can't be doing with all that swivelling; but upside down, then arms into straps and hoick it up. easier to get everything arranged that way!

Just to add to the mix, I put it on backwards but upside down with outside against my back, then swivel round and flip up and put my arms through my straps if the bra has them.

I do a normal bra your way, but a sports bra the other way. I just can't do the sports bra without seeing it! Don't know why.

My doctor told me you should always put your arms in, lean forwards slightly to pull the cups over your boobs, then straighten up and do it up at the back. Something to do with posture. (I have back problems; I don't just randomly discuss bras with my doc! ?) When I mentioned this at my slimming class they were all horrified - I was the only one who already did it that way, the rest did it up at the front then swivelled it and put their arms through.

I put it on and fasten it at the back, I am very large of breast.

You shouldn't put it on and swivel as it stretches the elastic, which is not good.

I do my up atthe front then swivel it round and then put my arms through. I used to wear bra that fastened up atthe front, which I suppose is why I got used to doing htat way, plus I also have a large chest. IK've tried fastening it at the back but just can't get the hang of doing up the clasps without seeing them

I have big boobs too and always fasten at the back and then stick my arms in. I have a feeling I used to do it the other way but then my boobs got bigger and the underwire was annoying when I tried to twist it around. The only annoying thing about it is my shoulders clicking every morning when I put my arms behind me to do it up.

I'm maahoosive of bust. I put my arms in first, hoik things generally into place, fasten at the back and then adjust lol. I might try something else tomorrow just for the change ?

I fasten at the front and spin. I always have done, but now I have big boobs. I never got the hang of fastening from the back. I always feel as though my arms are going to dislocate!

I have big boobs so I do it the way the bra lady in M&S told me to when I went and got measured.

I lean forward slightly ensuring my saggy boobs are no longer scratching my belly? put the shoulder straps on as normal, drop my boobs into the cups and then fasten at the back. Voila thus ensures the boobs, cups and straps are in the correct position making it more comfortable and saves any of the elastice being streched or pulled.

I have to admit its quite hard to get the hang of but once you do its like riding a bike!

My mother who also had big boobs fastens at the front then swivels, she can't stretch her arms round the back as she's partially disabled.

Hmm, I do it at the front then spin it around, then sort of scoop them out and rearrange ?

I have pathetically weak elbow joints and the faff of trying to find the clasp without looking would probably make them ache for days.

I do mine at the front and then swivel round my arms dont seem to be long enough to reach round my back ?

I do mine at the front and swivel round.

The bravissimo lady said that was wrong but I can't do it the other way!

I've always been a fasten at the front and swivel girl (oo-er) ?

I wish I could show this thread to my MIL because she told me categorically I was wrong to do it that way and that her way was right and she'd never known anyone do it my way before. If we were still talking, I'd go and stand outside her house and do the I was right dance ?

I'm glad I'm not a lonely freakoid who is the only person in the world to do up her bra this way, although we probably keep the bra companies in business due to the fact that we have loose elastic <twangs imaginary bra strap> ?

Another vote for fasten at the front then swivel round. Bend forward and let my boobs fill the cups then put the straps on!

Front and swivel for me too

I put arms through loops, let boobs fill cup spaces, reach round and hook together, i've never been a swivler ?

I really cannot fasten a bra at the back. It kills my arms after a few minutes and it takes much longer than that to get it fastened. Esp. when it's a 3 hooker like all mine are ?
So I fasten at the front and swivel.

Arms in, boobs in, fasten at back and a quick juggle to make sure all comfortable! I've relatively small boobed and don't remember doing it another way.

Another swiveller here, unless I get dressed in front of people, in which case I'll fasten at the back as I think it looks better- daft eh!

Straps on, lean slightly to get boobs in then do up round back.

never realised there was so much variation?

I loop the arms through then lean forward, pull the wire right under my boobs. I straighten up, jiggle a bit and shift things to be comfortable/sit properly then pull the arms up before fastening at the back. I then run my index fingers along the cup rims, from the middle to the edges.

WSS.

I have tried to put my bra on the right way around on occasion but it always takes me ages (I lack coordination!) and I get really hot and bothered at my inability to do it, so for my own sanity I don't usually try. ?
