BRASSIERE DEBACLE

Once again, I was frustrated watching my friend try to get help from a brassiere salesgirl. She knew absolutely nothing about good fitting and all she said was to try on and see if 'it' doesn't move around too much. This, coming from a supposedly top brand in women's intimate garments.

I am so tempted to take on the job and train these girls once and for all. One thing I've observed about the stores in Australia and the US, the salesgirls there are simply top notch. So to provide some service on my part, this week's video focuses on helping women get their right measurement. It's more dependable than what you would get from any brassiere store in Singapore.

IS YOUR BRA THE RIGHT FIT? (POLL 30)

I am astonished by how many women don't seem to know if the bra they have on is the right fit. But in all honesty, I think that it has to do with how equipped salesgirls are about it. I have often inquired but salesgirls just don't seem to have the proper understanding about how to find a right bra fit for their customers.

I went to a departmental store last month and just out of curiosity, asked the salesgirl about what I should look out for. Her reply was simple - 'As long as it doesn't shake about, it should be fine.'

I wonder what training these salesgirls receive because I am sure - and you will agree - that her reply was far from satisfactory. Of course for the 11% of women who said they don't wear any, that wouldn't matter.

If you want to know more about how to choose the right bra, I like to share this site with you. It is quite accurate and simple to follow.

In the mean time, here are the results from the bra poll held over Nov-Dec 2010.

Is Your Bra The Right Fit?
Definitely: 24 (15%)
I'm not sure: 64 (41%)
The salesgirl said so: 22 (14%)
I don't care: 28 (18%)
I don't wear any: 18 (12%)
Total no. of respondents: 156

ANTI-BOOB GRABBER

I remember when I was modeling back in the day in Jakarta, Indonesia. If I recall correctly, it was the Sari Pacific. We were hired by an apparel company that was doing a mass promotion in Southeast Asia for their new range of products.

So there were five of us models, two from Singapore, one from Malaysia and another two from Indonesia. On the first day, there was this guy, pretty normal looking Asian fella. He was nice and had a pleasant smile. But on the second day, he came up to one of us, the Malaysia girl I think, and we all thought he just wanted to say hi and do the usual, pass his call card or ask us to join him for a party or something along those lines. Instead, he grabbed her tits and walked briskly away.

No one did anything because we were totally shocked. It was in the lobby and there were loads of people around. I remember it well because it was the Christmas season and there was a gigantic Xmas tree up.

It was a three day gig and on the third day, the idiot of a man had the cheek to show up again. We had three runs to do throughout the night. So when we all noticed he was around, we decided to report him to the security personnel on duty but that damn fool told us he was an important guess and VIP of the hotel.

So we decided to take things into our own hands. We got Ina, one of the Indonesian girls who had the biggest bosom amongst all of us. Actually, it was she who volunteered. True enough, the same guy came up to us in the same lobby. But this time with Ina leading the pack, he approached her first and bang on schedule, he grabbed at her tits.

Just when he thought he had stuck the jackpot, he let out an agonising scream. Gosh, he sounded like a chicken with a bad throat. What Ina had done was to fix on several safety pins from the inside of her bra (safety pins are god-sent to models by the way)and left them open. It was kinda risky but she made sure they were pointing outwards.

You should have seen him, bleeding and screaming his way out of the lobby! But if I may, I hope bra manufacturers would consider making anti-boob grabbing bras like the one in the picture (but with nails instead). It might just teach them grabbers a lesson. Judging by friends and the number of women who wrote in with similar experiences, I think its really a timely accessory.

BOOB TYPES

Since we are on the subject of brasseries this week, I thought that this poster would be ideal to share with the fairer sex amongst you. Interestingly, I knew this British gal who used to wear - believe-or-not - water-bras. According to her it gave her perfect support and fitting because it just took to the contours of the natural shape of breasts.

And not that she needed to - she was a 36C - but with it on, you could give the impression it was a NATURAL cup or two bigger just by adding more water to it. And no she wasn't in entertainment or anything like that but an owner of a cleaning company.That was the first time I had ever heard of a water bra? Gosh do people really have so much time?

A friend of mine, well actually, an old colleague of mine had always seemed to have rather high sitting breasts. She wore sports bras all the time and only when we went on a holiday together and were showering did I notice why? Her tatas were so huge that I used to tease that they could knock out a hippo without any problem. She used to complain about never being able to find the right bra in Singapore, or in Asia for that matter. Well now, with the Internet, I'll bet that she dresses them up much better than in an unimaginative sports bra.

Another Singaporean girlfriend has a collection of bras from all over the world. Now how different could a bra from Japan be from a bra in Alaska, one might ask? Well, the structures and basic designs are the same but in terms of access, hooks, material and straps, I was really surprised how varied they really are. But seriously, collecting bras? I guess it's really no different from collecting wines.

THE PERFECT BRA

Check out this week's video of the week. It's about how to do subtle research when it comes to helping a woman find a perfect bra. I have a friend who used to work as a brasserie sales assistant. She is still with the company but has risen to management level but boy has she lots of stories to tell. I'll probably try to feature her in 'Missus Singapore gets intimate with' at some stage.

It's amazing how many women actually don't use the perfect bra that fits them properly. I'm was probably guilty of it before but have since got help fitting them. I suppose sales assistants here are better trained than before. But seriously, if you really want to keep them properly supported for the long-run, its best you pay for quality over the two-for-$10 bargains. Along with upper-body work outs and a properly fitting bra for good support, you'll have them propped for performance and display.

Have a great week ahead you all!
