- The “War on Plus Four” continues with a new study from the University of Portsmouth detailing the issues with the traditional bra fit method. Among other things, the study found that the plus four method was especially inadequate for larger-breasted women, which is what Linda the Bra Lady alluded to in our article on bra fit formulas.

- Catwalk Queen cited The Lingerie Addict in another article on the plus four method, and emphasizes that there’s nothing like trying your bras on to be sure they fit. Her article also has a chart correlating your dress size to your band size. If you’re new to the debate or wondering why it matters, this is a good place to start.
- Curvy Kate’s “Star in a Bra” Competition is set to America any day now. The “Star in a Bra” search finds a natural, D+ cup woman (i.e. no implants) to become the literal face and body of the brand, appearing in all their campaigns, advertisements, and PR promotions. Without invoking the tired “Real Women” debate, I am extremely happy that Curvy Kate uses real customers in their ads – everyday women who actually wear their bras.
- Richard, from Lingerie Talk, wrote a piece for Lingerie Briefs all about how to protect your intimate photos. With the popularity of boudoir and pin-up photography soaring, the ever present use of cell phones, and easy access to thousands (if not millions) of people through Facebook, Tumblr, and other social media platform, this is a must read article if you’ve taken intimate photos of yourself or are thinking of taking such photos in the future.
