Quick Answer

To get the right fit from the Maxine moulded bra, focus on the band, underwire placement, and cup coverage—then adjust straps for a secure yet comfortable hold.

Why Moulded Cups Need a Different Fit Approach

Unlike unlined bras, a moulded cup keeps its shape even when the bra is off. That means the fit depends less on the fabric stretching to you and more on choosing the correct cup size and band combination.

The Maxine features a seamlessly flexible and lightly padded cup with full coverage and supportive underwires. Because the cup is pre-shaped, a too-small band or cup will be more obvious—causing spillage or gapping—so take time to assess both.

Understanding the Maxine's Final Sale Status

Before you order, note that the Maxine is final sale with no returns or exchanges. This makes getting the fit right the first time even more important.

If you are between sizes, consider ordering the suggested replacement style, Zora (B1212), which is available for standard returns. Otherwise, double-check your measurements and use the fit steps below before committing.

Step-by-Step Fit Checklist for the Maxine Moulded Bra

  1. Measure Your Band and Bust: Use a soft tape measure to get your underbust and bust measurements. The band should sit level and snug, and the cups should fully contain your breast tissue without spillage or gaps. If you are between band sizes, choose the tighter band if the cups fit well, since bands stretch over time.
  2. Check the Underwire Position: The underwire should lie flat against your ribcage and encircle the entire breast, not dig into the tissue or sit on top of it. Raise your arms to see if the bra shifts—if it does, the band is too loose. The center gore (between the cups) should touch your sternum; if it floats, the cup size is likely too small.
  3. Adjust the Straps: Tighten the straps so they are snug but not digging into your shoulders. The straps should stay in place without slipping, and the cups should not gap at the top. If the straps need to be very tight to get support, the band is probably too loose—recheck the band fit.
  4. Test the Full Coverage: The Maxine offers full coverage, so the cup should cover the entire breast with no bulging at the sides or top. Move around, bend, and twist to ensure the bra stays in place. If you see spillage when you lean forward, try a larger cup size rather than a larger band.
  5. Care for Your Maxine: Hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry to preserve the moulded cup shape and underwire support. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying, which can distort the cups. Rotate between two or three bras to extend the life of each one and maintain consistent support.
