Quick answer
To get the best fit from the Jacqueline Contour Perfection Bra 25S1, focus on the band, underwire, and cup placement—this bra is designed for a narrow-set shape, so check that the wires sit flat against your sternum and the gore touches your chest.
Why the Jacqueline 25S1 fits differently
The Jacqueline Contour Perfection Bra 25S1 is built with narrow underwires that gather and lift, creating a soft, feminine silhouette. Unlike wider-set bras, the cups are positioned closer together, so the fit check starts with the gore (the center piece) sitting flat against your breastbone.
Because the bra uses rigid embroidery lace and a sheer tulle overlay, the fabric has less stretch than typical everyday bras. That means the band and cups will not "give" much over time, so the fit you feel on the first wear is close to the fit you will get later.
Step-by-step fit check
- Check the band level: Put on the bra and fasten the loosest hook. The band should sit horizontally across your ribcage, not ride up in the back. You should be able to slide two fingers under the band, but no more. If the band rides up, go down a band size.
- Position the underwire: The underwire should encircle your breast tissue completely and lie flat against your ribcage. The center gore must touch your sternum without pressing painfully. If the wire sits on breast tissue, try a larger cup size.
- Fill the cups without spillage: Scoop all breast tissue into the cups. The fabric should be smooth, with no bulging at the top or sides. Because the lace is rigid, a little gap at the top can mean the cup is too large. Spillage means a larger cup; gaping means a smaller cup.
- Adjust the straps: Tighten the straps just enough to feel support without digging. They should stay in place on your shoulders and not slip off. Straps that slip often mean the band is too loose.
- Move and re-check: Raise your arms, twist your torso, and bend forward. The bra should stay in place and return to its original position. Re-check the gore and underwire after movement. If the bra shifts, the band size is likely wrong.
