About the Episode

In this episode Nina explores "Caring for your Boobs with the Right Bra". Nina shares her trip to the Town Shop in NYC. The Town Shop is family owned and located on the upper west side of New York City. It was founded in 1888 and has a great history. They have over 100 years of providing the bra fitting experience.

What You're Gonna Hear

  • The Role of a Bra Fitter
  • The Anatomy of a Bra (Extra Oomph)
  • How Long A Fitting Actually Takes
  • The Biggest Complaints When It Comes to Bras
  • The Care & Maintenance of a Bra

This was Nina's first experience and she found a new appreciation for bra's. She found herself confessing to Danny Koch (store owner) her inability or knack to select the right bra. Alba Salas helped Nina with her fitting. Alba was featured on the Meredith Vieira Show for expertise in bra fitting. Alba explains to Nina the anatomy of a bra. Nina learns that her bra size is actually between a C and a D, not just a C.

The Town Shop's process emphasizes that it's about the fit and finding the right size for their customers. Buying a bra is like shopping for jeans. No pair of jeans is the same exact fit. It is the same way with bras. Every bra is different.

Most of know our bra struggles and girlienation chimes in to share their personal struggles. Nina explains her embarrassing confession, which she calls "Bra and Makeup Syndrome". She has some bras (as well as makeup) she has kept for years. Nina admitted to having one bra that was bought in London15 years ago.

Nina reminds us "It's all about the experience." It's about taking care of you & your "girls." Going to a bra fitter or specialty store staffed with experts makes total sense to me now. I get it!
