" When your favorite bra has lost its snap, it&amp;#039;s time to go shopping.   &amp;quot;But don&amp;#039;t assume you&amp;#039;re the same size you always were. Having kids, losing or gaining weight and exercising can change your shape,&amp;quot; says Pattie Ficorilli, director of merchandising services with Maidenform Inc. Here&amp;#039;s how to find the perfect bra:   \u2022 Average-sized women can wear any style, but fuller breasts need underwires (skip demi cups or half-cups, which don&amp;#039;t offer sufficient support).   \u2022 Straps should be comfy; they&amp;#039;re designed to stabilize the bra, not hold everything up. If they&amp;#039;re digging into your shoulders, you need a different style with deeper cups.   \u2022 Make sure hook-and-eye closures are covered with fabric so they don&amp;#039;t rub against your skin.   \u2022 Do a mirror check. If you&amp;#039;re spilling out the top or sides, try a larger cup size.   \u2022 Always try before buying; even the same style in another color may fit differently because dyes can stiffen fabric.
