What care should I take in making a return?
Make sure that all tags are attached and that the item(s) is returned in the same or similar packaging as it was received so that the merchandise is adequately protected and not damaged or miss-shaped in the return. Delicately molded bras will be damaged if not shipped in a protective container. To insure full credit, ship all bras in protective packaging.
Intimate garments containing a crotch cannot, by law, be returned once they have been worn or tried on. To protect the garment and to insure credit if the item is returned, we suggest you try these items on over your underwear.
Please do not wear perfume or deodorant when trying on your purchase. Also, do not try on your purchase in the presence of cigarette smoke. These can leave marks or scents, which will make the item, non-returnable.
We reserve the right to refuse returns on items that do not meet the requirements stated above or do not meet hygiene and health regulations.

Who pays for return shipping?
You are responsible for the cost of returning the merchandise. Your return will be processed and your credit card credited within 1-2 days after the receipt of your return. Please allow a few days for the credit to appear on your credit card.
For an exchange, you are responsible for the cost of returning the merchandise. If you request a replacement item of equal value, there is no charge to ship the replacement item to you. If additional exchanges are required, you will be charged for shipping.
In the unlikely event that you have been sent the incorrect merchandise or if you received damaged merchandise, we will reimburse you for the cost of returning the package to us and you will not be charged for the shipping costs of replacement merchandise.
Back to Top
What is your exchange policy?
We will pay the re-shipping cost of the exchanged merchandise on the initial exchange. Additional exchanges will incur additional shipping charges.

What is the most common mistake women make about their bra size?
The number one mistake women make when a bra is fitting snugly through the cups is to increase the band size instead of the cup size. You may be wearing a 36C and it feels tight so you increase the band size by moving up to a 38C instead of a 36D. Don’t change the band size unless you are unable to get a few fingers under the band of the bra.

What is the number one mistake most full-figured women make when sizing a bra?
The most common mistake among full-figured women is buying a bra with cups that are too small and then compensating by going up to a band size that is too big for them. This is understandable since most women have been buying bras from merchants who are limited in their assortment of cup sizes or they have been buying brands that only offer cup sizes to a D or DD. At The Lingerie Store USA, we offer a selection of beautiful bras that include band sizes as small as 30” with cup sizes to JJ. There is no longer any reason for a woman to compromise fit and comfort in selecting a bra.

I have recently lost weight and my bra is too big around. Do I need to go down in cup size as well as back size?
Due to changes in weight and body condition, it is important to be re-fitted every year. Accommodating changes in your bra size may mean buying a new size entirely. With a decrease in band size, the cup size may change proportionately. Unless you have noticed a change in your breast size, begin by trying the next band size down. This adjustment alone will probably be sufficient.
Back to Top
How do I know if my straps are adjusted correctly?
Slip a finger under your straps. If you can’t or if the straps are digging into your shoulders, you’re wearing the wrong bra size. Usually, the band size is too large and the cup size too small. The straps should only slightly hold the bra in place on your shoulders and not provide the actual support for your breasts. Do the strap test. Slip your straps off your shoulders so that they are resting on your arms. Except for some slight sagging at the top of the cups, a well-fitting bra should stay on without the straps’ assistance.
