It's time to have FUN finding the perfect fit—fashion expert Jené Luciani is here to help.

In 2009, The Bra Book helped countless women find the right bra. Now, Luciani, known as "Dr. Oz's Bra Guru," returns with this updated edition of her one-and-only guide to all things underneath.

If 85 percent of women are wearing the wrong bra, what else in their undergarment drawers doesn't fit as well as it could?

Luciani continues her mission to arm women with the knowledge they need to find the right fashion support. From the best bra for every outfit to important information about bras and breast health from puberty to retirement, from the physics behind bra design to how you can best ensure a proper fit, The Bra Book: Second Edition is still the ultimate resource on bras for women everywhere.

Lucky for us, Jene has expanded the book to include new and updated, yet essential, information from the ever-changing world of intimate apparel. In the era of "smooth is better," thanks in part to the "Spanx movement," The Bra Book: Second Edition now features a guide to the often overwhelming world of shapewear and swimsuits. Luciani eliminates confusion with her friendly guidance on finding the perfect fit and even tackles the uncomfortable questions, such as, "What really causes sagging?"

Discover new ways to best flatter your figure—and have fun shopping for that perfect fit. The Bra Book: Second Edition doesn't just tell women how bras and shapewear work; it shows them how to make those garments work for them!

Jene Luciani's "The Bra Book" is a must-read for any woman who's ever struggled to find the perfect bra for any occasion. (I think that's all of us!) The Bra Book is, not only, jam-packed with important and useful information, but that information is also packaged in a beautiful design. This book is a keepsake, a special token for a girlfriend, a holiday gift, and a personal "encyclopedia" on all things "bra." From the 'Herstory' of bras to Bra Faux Pas, and the Future of Bras--it's all in this book! Enjoy the read as much as I did...and pick up a copy for everyone on your holiday list.

Honestly, I wasn't sure what to expect from this book but I was pleasantly surprised! There is a ton of really good information on breast type, bra styles, fit and a bunch of other stuff...highly recommend this to anyone who is struggling with knowing exactly what to really be looking for in a bra, especially if you have had body changes for whatever reason (pregnancy, surgery, etc.)

Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2013

While the writing style is fun and not intimidating, the level of information given is extremely basic, so you won't get anything out of this book if you're an experienced bra researcher/shopper.

I would go so far as to say the "how to find your bra size" chapter was leading women in the wrong direction because it still promotes the outdated rule of "add 4-5 inches to your underbust to get your band size!" Before back pedaling and saying that doesn't work for a lot of women. She also mentions Victoria's Secret pretty frequently in the same breath as solutions for busty women. As a 32H, the "help" I've gotten from VS salesgirls over the years leads me to believe they ride the short bus to bra fitting school.

The formatting and editing errors are also kind of annoying, I'm probably going to try to return this book.

This book is a great resource for those who have trouble finding bras to fit. Understanding bra style and using fitting experts can help a lot. I refer to this book a lot and I also get a lot of insight out of it. Great book to understand and help figure out the ins and outs of bras.

2.0 out of 5 stars Recycled content and terrible in electronic format
Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2011

While I wasn't expecting to be completely blown away by 'ah ha' revelations, I found little that was new in this book. I was disappointed that it contained much content recycled from other sources, and a lot of 'self advertizement' for the author's own company (I'm sure they have wonderful products, and I will check them out, but still...)

I haven't seen the physical book but it was obvious by the seemingly haphazard formatting that it wasn't reformatted for electronic consumption (at least on a Kindle). Side panels, tips and tricks, images and associated descriptions were hard to follow. And the constant switching from left aligned to centered, initially thought to be showing different sections, just ended up appearing to be random. Missing spaces, typos, truncated text all detracted from a smooth reading experience. Even after adjusting my reading font size to a smaller size (which improved a few things but of course made it harder for me to read), it just wasn't worth it.

The scary thing about this is I happened upon the book as a result of watching an episode of "Mad Fashion" which was about the author having a grand launch party for the electronic release of this book! I thought that implied some effort to actually make an electronic rendition.

All I can say is that it was barely worth the $3.00. If you want this book, I suggest you look at the physical version.
