Thanks for pointing this out! We are looking into a stronger monitoring system, so that we can alert women when they have said a false size. We already have a system in place that doesn’t allow these women to go into the recommendation filter ( so they are exempt from giving recommendations in the personal shop)

As said before, we are so thankful for releasing Fit Or Not when it’s in early stages, as we have had such wonderful feedback from women, like all of you that have commented (positive and negative!) so we can really improve this feature…So watch this space!

For instance, there’s a “Victoria’s Secret Balconnette” in a “34FF”. And an “Aerie Balconnette” in a “28C”. Neither of those brands make those sizes. So, based on that – all the women on there who have a photo and say they’re wearing a 36A, but it looks alright (certainly not as bad as a 36A would on a sub-28 band), I’m guessing the information is wrong. Dead, completely wrong. How is this supposed to help women when they’re mis-representing sizes?

Definitely watch this space! Brayola WILL make your bra shopping wishes come true (and fitting issues!)

P.S Thank you for taking the time out to write such a detailed comment, we will take everything you have said on board and you will see changes soon!

Since it seems like folks from Brayola might be reading these comments, I’d like to add that what I really really would LOVE MOST to see on that site is a really clearly marked page that lays out the VERY BASICS of what actually constitutes a “fit” (ie: what list of things are these experts looking for when they evaluate the ‘fit or not’ photos) since clearly a huuuuuuuuuuuge amount of women taking interest in the ‘fit or not’ game have no idea what to look for and think a bunch of these awfully fitting bras count as ‘fit’. I’m talking the very basics with a few clear drawings or photos, so things like ‘center gore lies flat’ (with explanation of what the ‘gore’ is!), ‘band doesn’t ride up on back,’ ‘cups not cutting into breast-tissue/causing ‘quad-boob” etc. Women using this ‘game’ and site wouldn’t be doing it if they weren’t somewhat interested in bra fitting– this is the PERFECT platform to have really easily available education to people who are already interested!

If users don’t have any idea what criteria your ‘experts’ are using to decide if a photo is a ‘fit or not’ then as good as your intentions are, you’ll be missing out on helping these thousands of people rating the photos (and many of the people submitting them, those who don’t get an explanation but just a ‘fit’ or ‘not’) learn anything about what a properly fitting bra looks like. It does the majority of your users absolutely no good to keep what makes a bra a good fit a mystery that only the experts can decode. I look forward to seeing where this goes in the future, it seems like a really exciting idea and I bet you could do a lot of good once you add some solid education to the mix.

Apologies for the long-windedness!
