Description
Fabulous new old stock bullet bra from the 1960's. Others have these listed as 1950's, however there is polyester in the content which wasn't a thing until late 1959. These are model 526 lace, no underwire design. Most of my selection will appeal to full figured ladies in those hard to find cup sizes. Comes with pink informational brochure with fit and care instructions. The photos of this paperwork and of the bra tag are for informational purposes only.. each bra comes with sizing correct info. listed on tag and paperwork. This bra is designed to adjust for the band/shoulders but then the cup can be opened once worn, to adjust the breast within the cup. This unique design would also make this an ideal maternity/nursing bra. These are clean with no odors however there may be light yellowing from storage here and there that should wash out with a little BIZ in the sink. I have read that the band on these run small, so here is a sizing guide that I found on the internet.Finding the BEST FIT: Figurette Custom Fitted Bra:
Starting Size (best guess)
Band Size in inches:
Note: the Figurette Band is approximately the measurment under the arm;
where as the Cameo Band is approximately the measurment on the rib cages just under the bust.
Measure around chest below arm pit at the bra line, just above the bust.
If the measurement is odd, subtract 1 inch
Cup Size:
With a properly fitting bra on:
Measure around the Bust in inches with a bra on.
Subtract the Band Size from the Bust Size.
The difference is the approximate Starting cup size starting with "A"
STARTING GUESS CUP SIZE For the Figurette:
Bust - Band = Difference in inches = approximate cup size
To calculate the Figurette knowing the Brantly/Cameo size:
For the Figurette, go
down one to two cup letters from the Brantly/Cameo and
increase the Band approximately two inches.
In some instances, a person can wear the same size in the Brantly/Cameo as in the Figurette.
Due to Differences in Body shapes, and tissue distribution, a person can wear a different size than another person with identical measurements.
STARTING GUESS (for Figurette only): CUP SIZE: Bust - Band = Difference in inches
