Gretta's Got It: Gretta's Got It! Bra fitting
Gretta Monahan
"Ladies, now hear this! That bra that you're wearing right now is probably the wrong one, so we're going to get rid of that bad bra because it's time to get one that's fit for a queen."
Susan Nethero has committed her life to giving women a boost!
Susan Nethero, Intimacy founder
"About 85 percent of all women are wearing the wrong size bra."
She trained under the Queen of England's bra fitter, and has help lift the likes of Oprah, and former supermodel Veronica Webb. Susan says so many women make the mistake of wearing bras that are stretched out, worn out, or just wrong.

"Just like those jeans from high school. Your bra size changes too."
Susan Nethero, Intimacy founder
"About 6 times in a woman's life she'll either need a different size or a different shape of bra."
The reasons are everything from getting older, losing or gaining weight, or the biggie, having a baby.
Gretta Monahan
"If the under-wire hurts, the shoulder straps fall down, you get back fat or you under or over fill the cup, then your bra is busted! So get rid of it."
Your bust should be lifted and centered midway between your shoulder and your elbow. To get that perfect position you'll need a fitting.
Susan Nethero, Intimacy founder
"Your bra is riding up your back and giving you back fat...and I am sure what is happening through the day this is falling down."
Vanessa has always worn a 36C. But today is learning it's just too loose.
Susan Nethero, Intimacy founder
"So we are going to get you lifted up here the line is midway between your shoulder and your elbow so this is firm here so you are actually getting lift and support. Great!"
A quick fix and a new size...
Susan Nethero, Intimacy founder
"So what do you think?" "I love it" "You have gone from a 36C to a 32E. What we are seeing now is your bra is not shifting on your body and you are getting breast support and gives nice definition."
Side by side, the difference is unmistakable. Vanessa's true size--- one she never knew was available.
Susan Nethero, Intimacy founder
"A lot of people think that A to D cup are the only cup sizes there are out there."
So once you have the right fit--it's time to stock up.
Gretta Monahan
"Just like a closet full of great clothes, build a bra wardrobe that's top shelf or should I say top drawer."
Susan Nethero
"Start with 3 and then work your way into your wardrobe. Ideally 7 to 10 bras would be the best."
The basic bra styles every gal needs in her collection: strapless and or convertible, a t-shirt, a cleavage, a classic lace and of course everyone needs one that's sexy. Different styles work with different outfits!
So always give them a "road test" with your clothes first.
Gretta Monahan
"So now that we know how to accentuate your assets, burn that old bra, but make the here are some tips to make them last. Always wash your bras in lingerie wash, never put them in a dryer, and just like your favorite threads, don't be afraid to get them tailored."
