A stylist has taken to social media to explain how bras should be properly worn, as the majority of people are apparently doing it wrong.
It's so important to feel comfortable no matter what kind of underwear you're wearing, and if you're feeling any kind of discomfort from your bra, you could be wearing the wrong type entirely.
That's according to fashion expert Kenzie, also known as @stylingbykenzie on TikTok, who recently posted a video claiming that 80 per cent of people watching her content were wearing the wrong bra size - and offering her tips to solve the problem.
The Mirror reports that Kenzie has racked up a loyal following of over 450,000 people on her styling account, as she often posts helpful fashion and outfit-building content.
She previously worked in a luxury lingerie store, so has built up a wealth of knowledge and tips that have "changed [her] life for the better".
In the video, Kenzie said: "My first job out of college was at a luxury lingerie company where we were trained on how to properly fit women into bras - and I'm going to teach you everything I've learned in that training."
Kenzie's first tip was making sure the bra band fit was accurate.
She said: "The fit of the band should fit parallel around the small of your back and you shouldn't be able to pull it out more than two inches.
"A lot of women get the sizing of the band completely wrong because they're concerned about the snug fit, but over time your bra is going to stretch out, so you want to make sure that when you're trying on a bra for the first time that you're attaching it to the loosest hook and not the tightest.
"Number two - cup size. The fit of your cup is influenced by your band size. As your band size changes, so does your cup size. So, for every band size that you go down, you should be going up in cup size."
You'll know the bra is too small if you notice breast spillage "coming out of the sides" or from the top of the cups.
And if it's too big, it's likely the bra will sag, pucker, or have gaps in it.
Kenzie added: "This may come as a surprise, but your straps are not there for support, it's your cups and your band that are providing the support in your bra.
"Number three - your cup shape really matters. There are over 25 different bra styles and most popular stores only carry five, which means you might be wearing a t-shirt bra right now, but actually, your breast size, your breast position and breast shape are better fitted for a balconette or a plunge bra."
"By wearing the proper bra shape, you'll look more lifted, more smooth, but most importantly, you'll feel more comfortable and more supported," she added.
Kenzie's advice has been highly appreciate by her followers on TikTok, as they flocked to the comments to thank her for sharing.
One person wrote: "This is super helpful! Great video, thank you!"
Another agreed: "Great advice! So true."
A third penned: "I have spillage at the centre of the cup and space at the top."
Kenzie replied: "That may be an indication you need a different style!"
