Try The Lingerie Diet http://www.the-lingerie-post.com/2011/01/need-assistance-building-a-lingerie-wardrobe-try-the-lingerie-diet/ http://www.the-lingerie-post.com/2011/01/need-assistance-building-a-lingerie-wardrobe-try-the-lingerie-diet/#comments Wed, 19 Jan 2011 13:16:47 +0000 Kelly http://www.the-lingerie-post.com/?p=16540 Lingerie can be a wild, wonderful, and confusing world, especially if you’re new to the whole thing. That’s why Margaret Shrum has created The Lingerie Diet, which is a complete lingerie consultation resource. Shrum has over twenty years of experience as a fine lingerie expert and stylist in New York City, and she is passionate about helping women find their beauty and build their confidence through lingerie.

The main part of The Lingerie Diet is the tele-seminars, which help women build a complete lingerie wardrobe. The seminars help you select lingerie that fits and flatters. The seminars include 4 one-hour sessions each month. As a participant you will go through a 30 Day Challenge which takes you through the steps of building a lingerie wardrobe that matches your personal style, and choosing to wear beautiful lingerie every day. You can ask questions, share experiences, etc. on the calls. You also get homework that includes lingerie shopping (the best kind of homework I’ve ever heard of!).

Shrum has also authored an e-book, Secrets of the Lingerie Diet, and built an online lingerie community called The Circle with a forum where women can ask questions and read articles, tips, and interviews. For those in the NYC area, Shrum offers personal shopping as well. To get a taste of The Lingerie Diet, you can sign up for 30 Day Challenge emails for free.

For more information about The Lingerie Diet, or to sign up for the tele-seminars, visit TheLingerieDiet.com.

We have touched on this topic in our bra sizing guide, but Michelle discusses this specific aspect in-depth.  First, she tackled the basics and started her readers out with a quiz.

Question #1: Which of these bras is bigger in cup size?

Bra Set #1

Bra Set #1

Question #2: Okay, which of these bras has the bigger cup size?

Bra Set #2

Bra Set #2

Question #3: How about these bad boys?

Bra Set #3

Bra Set #3

Think you know the answers? You may be surprised! Head on over to The Pretty Year’s post Size Chart Woes: The Naked Truth About Bra Sizes to check your answers and to learn more about the band/cup relationship, the myth of “sister sizing,” and cup size illusions.

Then, in a follow-up post, she said,

…there seems to be a major discrepancy between What We Were All Taught about bra sizing and Bra Reality.

Basically, we were told that cup size is determined by the number of inches difference between our underbust and bust measurements– 1 inch = A cup, 2 inches = B cup, and so on. Based on this, many of us assumed this meant that all A cups were the same size/volume (i.e., “1 cubic inch” or some such), all B cups were the same size/volume, etc., and that the only difference between, say, a 32D and a 36D was in the band. But nay, as our own photographic evidence suggests, this is not true. Your 36D has significantly more volume in the cup than your 32D, in addition to being wider in the band itself.

Nothing too expensive for Amy who’s been spotted in a bright yellow and blue Sloggi before: the Flirt is available online at Figleaves UK for just £26.
