Under your arms, into your side, under your breast tissue—wherever it happens, this is a common problem if you're in the wrong size. Our first suggestion is to get remeasured. But this could also be an issue with the style you wear. If your new size still digs, then give a non-wired or bralette bra a try.
Straps That Slip Off
A simple tweak might be the answer. Start by tightening them to see if they stretched or loosened with wear. Next, move your bra to a tighter hook. A loose band can cause your straps to dig or fall off. If these adjustments don't work, give racerback straps a try. This style is especially beneficial if you have narrow shoulders.
A Frame That Won’t Sit Flat
Your solution for this issue depends on what part doesn't sit flat against your body. The "gore" is the little triangle of fabric at the front of your bra between the cups. If this piece doesn't sit flat, there could be a couple of things wrong. First, adjust your band to a looser hook. Your cups may be too small if this tweak doesn't work. If you resize and still experience this problem, a front-close style can make this gap less obvious.
If the entire underwire is sliding up onto your breasts, then your band is likely the wrong fit. Start by remeasuring to ensure your bra isn't too big or too small.
