Get Fit & Feel the Difference
The benefits of a By-Appointment-Service:
- Purchasing a bra should be like getting a good haircut.
You need to schedule time for yourself to look great and to receive the full attention of your bra fitter. If your hair stylist ran in and out of the room during your appointment, cutting other people’s hair, who knows how you would end up. You go to a professional hair stylist to keep your look updated, find the best style to bring out your features and to ensure that the back looks as good as the front.
- Shopping for a bra should be as much fun as working with a salon’s top stylist.
If you randomly walk into a hair salon/bra store, you’re at the mercy of who’s available. It may be a stylist right out of beauty school or a bra fitter who has only a month of experience. It’s anybody’s guess how it will end up. Do not take that risk! With an appointment, at La Bratique, you are guaranteed to work privately with an expert who will get to know you personally and be able to update or change your look from season to season or throughout the course of your life.
- Selecting the right bra is as important as your stylist choosing the right hair color.
Just as the right hair color can hide signs of gray, add depth for fullness or help you out of a mental doldrum, so can the right bra. A poorly fitted bra is like graying prematurely or leaving your look flat and dull. A properly fitted bra, along with the right shape for your silhouette, will make you look taller and leaner, improve your posture and may make the bust look smaller. In order for our bra fitters to make the best bra and fit recommendations, we need to see how each and every bra fits as you try it on.
- Building a bra wardrobe should be like adding brushes, curlers, straighteners and other tools to change your look.
At La Bratique, our experts work individually with each client to create a 3 bra minimum wardrobe, which should be rotated daily. No one bra, style, color or shape will meet the diverse needs of your lifestyle or wardrobe; therefore, we offer a variety of options.
For your convenience, we keep records of past purchases, wish list items for future purchases and offer gift certificates as well.
The Science of Support
Our fitters spend considerable time learning about fabrics, bra construction and fit to understand how each and every style in the store is unique. Just as no two bras are alike, no two women are either. As professional fitters, it is our job to understand how your individual silhouette comes together with a bra’s unique construction to ensure proper fit. We can help when your schedule an appointment. GO
