Apparently we’ve been wearing bras the wrong way since puberty

Every now and then life hacks seem to come along and make us think deeply about how we’ve been living our lives incorrectly...
It all started when Brittany Packnett tweeted about one of the tags on her new bras which has basically schooled twitter on how you’re ACTUALLY supposed to be wearing your bras!
.@ThirdLove just told I’ve been putting on my bras wrong for twenty years.

Loosest clasp. Lift and set your breasts. Tighten regularly … Definitely not doing any of that.
Is it just us or does anyone now feel the urge to lift up their tatas and put them in the right place?
Forgive our ignorance but were we too under the assumption that you wear it on the middle clasp and therefore can tighten it as it inevitably stretches or loosen it, if swelling occurs!

Following Brittany’s surprise lesson on how to wear a bra properly, others have come out supporting (pun intended) this bra revelation!
I think it's start on the loosest setting so you have room to go when it invariably stretches out.

Front hooks FTW. Ain't nobody got time for the reach and miss in the morning.

Don’t feel bad. I just learned this same information last year. There’s a whole generation of wrong bra-ing.
