“I’m naturally a very confident person,” says Melissa Thomason, owner and founder of Breakout Bras. If you’ve ever met her in person, you know she means it. “I was very confident when I was fat. I’m intelligent, I’m successful. I was like, ‘Whatever,’ I couldn’t care less about being fat.”
You may already know part of Melissa’s story. She started Breakout Bras out of her living room in 2000 to help women find bras that actually fit, and the rest is history. What you may not know is that Melissa recently lost about 150 pounds, and she had to find bras that fit her all over again.
Today, Melissa sat down to talk about weight loss: the benefits, the troubles that go along with it, how it can affect a person’s confidence, and, of course, what it does to your bra size.
“I want to talk about my experience because a lot of women go through it,” she says. “Any kind of gain or loss can change the consistency of your breast tissue and the way your bra is going to fit. We get customers in the store every week who have gone through really drastic weight change.”
Today, Melissa weighs right at 200 pounds. Five years ago, at her heaviest, she weighed 352 pounds. Then, in her late thirties, she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. She immediately changed her diet, got her blood sugar under control, and lost seventy pounds over the course of a year. After that, she couldn’t lose any more weight, no matter what she did.
“For two and a half years, I was stuck at the exact same weight, give or take a pound or two. I felt like I was broken,” says Melissa. “My doctor felt I was a perfect candidate for surgery because I had lost the weight, I had changed my eating habits, and I just couldn’t lose any more. I was really adamant about doing it myself, and I did as much as I could, but my body totally refused to keep going. I had to make the hard decision to go forward with the surgery.”
Melissa was presented with three options for weight loss surgery: a gastric bypass, a lap band, or a gastric sleeve. She and her doctor decided on the sleeve because it’s a minimally invasive procedure with a high success rate and a lower risk of complications.
Since the surgery, Melissa has dropped an additional eighty pounds, for a total of 150. That’s more, she points out, than her teenage daughter weighs. Such extreme weight loss has its perks, but Melissa is more interested in discussing the aspects no one mentions.
“Of course there are obvious positives,” she says. “I can fit into so many clothes now. I buy clothes all the time. I’ve gained better health, a better body, and I do feel much better. There are downsides, however. There are things people struggle with. I don’t feel like that part gets talked about enough.”
Something as simple as going out to dinner with friends can become a stressful situation that can make people feel self-conscious or isolated. “There’s a social aspect to eating,” says Melissa. “I couldn’t go out to a restaurant and do the same thing my friends were doing. After the surgery my stomach could only handle very small portions. It makes going out with friends a very different experience.”
Weight loss can affect sexual health too. People often find they feel more sexual after radical weight loss, partly because they feel better about their bodies and partly because of changing hormones. The opposite happened to Melissa, and she points to the dramatic changes in her breasts as the reason.
“I’ve always had pretty big boobs, even when I was young and thin,” she says. “Now they’re mostly skin. I’ve had problems with sex since the surgery because I’m not confident about my boobs anymore. I don’t like for my husband to really even touch them now.”
Her husband, she says, has been incredibly supportive from the beginning.
“Jim met me when I was young, tall and hot. He’s been with me the whole time,” she says. “He was there through the weight gain and he was very patient through the process of losing it. He never made me feel less attractive. He’s been an awesome support system for me.”
One of the biggest challenges Melissa faced was finding a bra that fit her new body shape. She started Breakout Bras because she had trouble finding her correct size in department stores. In order to feel better about her breasts, she once again needed to find a bra that fit. She had worn the Panache Tango II almost exclusively for years, but after she lost the weight, the Tango didn’t work for her anymore.
“Before I had the surgery, my cup size was technically bigger than a K, and the Tango was the only bra that could really accommodate me,” she explains. “Afterwards, I had no mass left in my breasts, and the Tango was just too full at the top. It didn’t have enough support on the bottom of the cup. I needed a bra that really jacked me up.”
What came next was a period of trial-and-error. Even though Melissa has been a professional bra fitter for the better part of two decades, it took her quite a while to figure out what worked for her new body shape.
“I’ve been in the bra industry for seventeen years. This is what I do. If it was a challenge for me to figure out what was going on with my body, I can only imagine how hard it might be for someone who isn’t quite as familiar with the fitting process.”
Her advice to women struggling to find a bra after extreme weight change—be it loss or gain—is to think outside the box.
“What you were doing in the past is not necessarily going to work for you now,” she says. “You might have to go for a style that hasn’t worked before, or something completely different from what you’re used to. ”
It’s a lesson she learned the hard way. At first, Melissa was determined to stick with her trusty Tango. She tried moving to a smaller cup, hoping to fill it up better, but still wasn’t getting the results she wanted. Then she tried changing band sizes with little success. Even in the correct band size, the Tango was no longer doing a good job of supporting Melissa’s breasts. She was forced to try other styles.
“I ended up in a Panache Jasmine, which had always been painful for me before. It just wasn’t a good everyday bra for me before the surgery. Now it works. It’s all about the shape. The Tango spreads me out and makes my chest look bigger, but not in a flattering way. The Jasmine gives me the lift I need, and it’s containing enough on the sides.”
And what does Melissa want people to learn from her experience?
“Start from scratch. Seriously,” she says. “I was convinced I should stick with what had worked for me before, and it took me forever to find something that worked. Don’t try to adjust your old measurements. Get new ones.”
Moreover, Melissa wants people to know that numerical measurements are not the ultimate indicator of a good fit. Because the shape and consistency of a woman’s breasts is so intrinsically linked to her weight, it’s often a question of style.
“Roughly every 30 pounds lost is a band size,” says Melissa. “Women who experience rapid weight loss—say 60 or 90 pounds within a few months—usually don’t lower their band size enough. At my heaviest, I wore a 36. When I started losing weight, that number dropped way faster than I expected. I tried a 34 and a 32 when I really needed a 30. Even then, the Tango didn’t work because my boobs were different than before.”
Melissa wore a 36K before her procedure. She is currently in a 28JJ or 28K depending on the style (though the Jasmine stops at a 30 band), but says she’ll need a much smaller cup in the future.
“I’ll eventually have my breasts done,” she says. “I don’t want implants or enhancements, I just want to get them lifted and have the excess skin removed. Right now, I’m filling maybe five cup sizes with nothing but skin. After corrective surgery, they’ll be significantly smaller, probably in the GG area.”
“I have a lot of excess skin,” she continues, holding up her arms to demonstrate. “It’s here, it’s on my legs, it’s on my stomach. Being 5’11” helps me carry it pretty well, but I’m going to get a lot of it removed. People who have that follow-up done are more successful long-term with keeping the weight off.”
Melissa has been off diabetes medication for a year and a half, and she hopes to see a change in the way physicians diagnose diabetes.
“They could have told me I was diabetic twenty years earlier if there were different criteria for diagnosing it,” she says. “My blood sugar was normal, but my body was producing huge amounts of insulin to keep it that way. That’s a red flag.”
Unusually high insulin levels may indicate insulin resistance, a symptom of prediabetes, but only a handful of specialized physicians diagnose this way. If it’s caught early, prediabetes can be reversed before it develops into type 2 diabetes. Had Melissa known she was at risk, she could have implemented lifestyle changes sooner and avoided a diagnosis altogether.
“I got past the point where I could heal myself,” she says. “In the future, I’d like to start some sort of campaign so other people don’t get to that point.”
In the meantime, Melissa and her team will continue helping women everywhere figure out their fit, no matter how their bodies change. “I had to get out of my comfort zone to find something that worked,” she says. “That’s what I want to help other people do.”
Most women have spent years settling for less in their bra shopping experience. You might visit a big-box store that offers a wide selection but lacks knowledgeable staff who can help you understand that the band you've worn for a decade is actually two sizes too big. Alternatively, you could go to a specialty shop that understands how to fit you properly but doesn’t carry many, if any, options in your size. This leaves you with the frustrating choice of which part of the problem you'd rather live with.
At Breakout Bras, you don't have to choose. Because of our larger online presence, we're considered too big to be a specialty bra store but too specialty to be a big-box retailer. That in-between space is precisely where the good stuff happens. We call it the hybrid advantage, and here’s what it means for you.
Too big for a boutique: the selection
Think of the difference between a dedicated running store and the shoe wall at a big sporting-goods chain. The running store fits you properly but stocks a fraction of what you might need. The big chain has walls of options and no one to help. Most shops sit at one end or the other. We’ve built Breakout Bras to sit in the middle, with the depth of a large retailer and the knowledge of a small one.
That depth is real. We carry roughly 25 to 30 brands across our store and online, in a size range that runs from 26–56 bands and AA–T cups, plus dedicated mastectomy, nursing, and sports bra options and shapewear. That’s not a range you’ll find on a big-box wall, and it’s more than most boutiques can hold. It’s why we can fit the full-bust and plus-size customers, the petite-band customers, and the hard-to-find bra sizes that other stores can’t.
Carrying that range takes more than shelf space. It takes volume, and our combined in-store and multi-channel sales let us place forecasting orders for a season that’s still six to twelve months out. I’ll be honest. Committing to orders that far ahead is a little nerve-wracking. A lot can change between now and then: the economy, what customers are looking for, and what’s trending. But that volume is also what earns us a spot that most boutiques never get. Vendors treat us as a hybrid account, which means we’re often placing orders a month or more before trade shows, giving us early or exclusive access to new releases. I flew to New York back in March for early previews of the collections debuting this upcoming spring to provide my feedback and flag any fit concerns before production. The scale gets us in the room. The curation is still all about the fit.
Too specialty for big box: the fit
Selection is only half of it, and it’s the half everyone talks about. The part that actually started this business and still matters most to us is the fit.
We do true band-and-cup, sight-based professional bra fitting in the store. No tape measure. If you’ve ever been “measured” over your clothes with a tape and sent off with a number that felt nothing like your body, you already know why we don’t do it that way. A professional bra fitter reads what she sees: the shape of your back and ribcage, asymmetry, breast tissue distribution, how they fill the cups, and so much more. That’s how you get a bra that supports you instead of one that simply matches a measurement.
That same expertise shapes what we buy for the website, but with one honest caveat: what sells online is very different from what sells in the store. Online customers often haven’t had a proper bra fitting yet, so they’re far more likely to purchase the wrong size or style for them. Our best-selling sizes and styles online look almost nothing like our best-sellers in-store because they’re two genuinely different sets of customers. We buy for both on purpose.
Big-box stores will never provide the extensive range of sizes we offer, nor will they train their staff to fit customers the way we do. This represents the specialty aspect of our hybrid approach, and we're not willing to give it up.
What the hybrid advantage means for you
The real magic happens when you combine the two halves. Because of our online volume and the inventory that comes with it, the customer who walks into our store has access to a far larger selection than any traditional boutique could keep on hand. And the customers shopping online are choosing from an assortment curated by fitters who work with customers every day. You get the selection of a much larger retailer and the personal, knowledgeable service of a genuine specialty bra store, at the same time. That’s the whole idea.
Whether you’re local and want to come in for a fitting, or you’re shopping with us from across the country, our team is here to help you find your size and your style. Book a professional bra fitting with us, in person or virtually, and experience the difference that real selection and real expertise make.

We interviewed our maternity and nursing bra sizing expert and a recent mother herself, Arielle, to give you the scoop on "What to Expect When Maternity Bra Fitting".
Arielle has been with Breakout Bras since 2005! So, she definitely knows her stuff when it comes to bra sizing. She's received extensive and thorough bra-fitting training from Breakout Bras’ owner, Melissa Thomason. In addition to her training and years before becoming a mom herself, she even read "What to Expect When Expecting", to give her a better understanding of how to explain the changes that happen during pregnancy to her customers. Talk about dedication! Even with all that knowledge, Arielle’s own pregnancy and motherhood journey has surprised her with new information and provided her with even more insight to help out our customers.
So, Arielle, when would you recommend getting fitted for a maternity bra?
"I recommend coming in to get sized for a maternity bra whenever you start to feel uncomfortable in your current bra. I see a lot of women trying to make their old bras work for as long as possible, but why would you want to be uncomfortable? Get one that feels good throughout your pregnancy. You'll be glad you did.
Maternity bras are non-nursing, stretchy bras with light to moderate support. However, most of those styles aren’t going to give you the same level of support you're used to. So, keep an open mind for trying different, non-maternity options. In fact, we fit the majority of our customers in regular bras for their pregnancy. They provide better support, containment, and shaping." Not all regular bras will work, though. We choose styles that are flexible, and almost all of them will have stretch lace to accommodate your changing body.
So how would you size a customer for a maternity bra?
"Well, I would have the bra band on a tighter setting, so they can make it looser as their ribcage expands throughout the pregnancy. If their ribcage expands more than expected, we also offer extenders. I find that most women end up not needing them, though. I would also fit the bra to be bigger in the cup size. Generally, one to two cup sizes up, depending on their current size and if this is their first kid. For most women we've helped over the years, we've found that during their first pregnancies, their breasts tend to get much bigger and much earlier compared to subsequent pregnancies. Women who have multiple pregnancies close together tend not to change much after the first one."
That’s some pretty interesting information! What about getting a nursing bra while you’re pregnant?
"I don’t usually suggest getting nursing bras until later in pregnancy. Their bodies are going to change so much, and the bra will stretch with them too. So, when it’s time to deliver, they likely won’t be able to use that nursing bra because it’s too stretched out. They're going to get a much better fit if they get a regular bra sized for maternity use. They can get the nursing bra when it's actually time to start breastfeeding.
However, if they really want a nursing option during pregnancy, they can choose to wear a soft-cup nursing bra that's stretchy and has light support. Then, after delivery, they can use that bra as a sleep bra. I would recommend the ‘Blossom’ by Royce and the ‘Body Silk’ by Bravado. Being fitted for a soft-cup nursing bra during pregnancy usually works better for customers who have a petite frame and are smaller in the bust. A regular bra will generally serve most women best, but especially if the customer is larger in the bust and has a smaller band size."
You mentioned getting a nursing bra later in pregnancy. How late should they get one?
"A month or so before their due date is when I would recommend a transitional nursing bra. A transitional nursing bra is one that comes in a size range and isn’t cup size specific. They’ll need this style because there isn’t a way to anticipate how much milk they're going to make or how much their breast or band size is going to fluctuate. On average, four to six weeks after delivery is when things have settled down enough to get a size-specific style, but you'll need a good transitional bra in the meantime. These styles work great for the last month of pregnancy when things are getting pretty uncomfortable, at the hospital when you need something to nurse your newborn in, and then afterwards as a sleep bra at night or when hanging around the house. Transitional bras are an investment well worth making.
Bravado Body Silk and Bravado Body Silk Full Cup are great bras that come in different size ranges. ‘Kiera ’by Goddess works really well for women with large breasts and a larger band size. The ‘Blossom’ by Royce is ideal for women with large breasts who have a smaller band size. If you’re opting for an underwired nursing bra, make sure the wire goes far back enough, past your underarm, so there's no wire pressure on their breast tissue. It's also best to choose styles made with stretch lace, so there will be room for growth and fluctuation."
That’s some very helpful information, Arielle! One last question: what if the customer can’t come into the retail store to get fitted?
Not a problem at all. Breakout Bras has helped women all over the country for over 20 years get fitted for their nursing bras via phone and email. I would recommend starting on the website with Breakout Bras’ Comprehensive Sizing Guide at www.breakoutbras.com/pages/fitting-guide. Then call or email Customer Service at 864-627-0200 or service@breakoutbras.com. We’re always happy to give style recommendations and sizing advice."
Great! Thanks again, Arielle, for passing along your knowledge on maternity bras! I look forward to hearing from you in Part II, "What to Expect When Nursing Bra Fitting"!
Melissa Thomason welcomed a new baby into the world in 2000, but the difficulties she faced in attempts to find nursing bras that fit added an element of discouragement to her excitement. Melissa’s experience inspired her to give other women struggling to find correctly fitted bras the opportunity to purchase them, and Breakout Bras was born.
Originally an online only business, the company emerged from Melissa’s own garage, and since then it has grown to include a retail location that opened in 2002, warehouse space, office space, and staff of almost 20 highly trained employees. Customers at Breakout Bras know they are going to get correct fits, the best selection of products, and quality customer service experiences with every visit and online order.
Breakout Bras’ experienced, in-house customer service representatives, exceptionally well-stocked warehouse, gorgeous showroom, highly trained fitters, and clever marketing team sets the company above the rest. It’s more than a boutique; the Breakout Bras staff handles all its customer service, order processing, and retail procedures from one versatile site.
This multifaceted approach to sales allows each member of the Breakout Bras team to earn a well-rounded understanding of the company’s operations and to help its customers quickly and efficiently with whatever challenges they may face. The company also maintains close relationships with its vendors, creating open conversations that lead to innovative growth and improvement for both parties and creating a better shopping experience for consumers.
Our Atmosphere
Unlike many retail locations and boutiques, Breakout Bras has access to a mass quantity of diverse brands, sizes, and styles of merchandise; this concentrated selection of inventory allows the store’s fitters to choose the best fit to flatter each unique woman hoping to improve her appearance with a new bra. Additionally, Breakout Bras pairs every customer with a designated fitter who walks her through every step of the sizing process, eliminating any potential for feelings of anxiety or dejectedness which classically accompany bra shopping experiences.
Having seasoned customer service agents working under the same roof also allows those fitters to seek counsel and avoid pitfalls that might ordinarily lead to frustrations or returns. The atmosphere at Breakout Bras is relaxed; maintaining a casual space allows the company’s customers to feel at ease as they get fitted for bras which can often be an intimidating experience. The store strives to create a welcoming environment for women of all walks of life by making sure both the showroom and staff members are approachable and relaxed.
The Breakout Bras entryway window showroom displays a balanced collection of bras, intimates, and specialty items. Mannequins model new merchandise, and the store’s staple favorites line its walls. A comfortable seating area bathed in natural light adjoins eight spacious fitting rooms and decorative touches, like seasonal flowers and paper lanterns, add visual interest to the store’s casual aesthetic. Twice a month, the showroom undergoes a total transformation as featured items like sports bras, swimsuits, maternity wares, and vendor displays are exchanged to highlight the most relevant products possible.
Holidays and other special occasions also give Breakout Bras staff an excuse to give its retail location a mini-makeover by adding a few festive decorations to its interior and a catchy phrase to its sidewalk sign. There’s never a dull moment or set theme; Breakout Bras likes to mix things up and keep its displays exciting for new and loyal customers.
Breakout Bras actively strives to build relationships with its customers and its community. The store’s marketing team engages its followers on social media while its retail staff works to provide in-store clients with positive, uplifting experiences. Fitters do their best to educate the women they serve, so customers can understand not only which bras they bought but also why those bras flattered their bodies best. Breakout Bras consistently shows customers appreciation through rewards programs, giveaways, and updates about incoming products and upcoming events.
Recently, the marketing team invited community members to host pop-up shops in its lobby in hopes of giving clients a more enriched buying experience and giving rising artists a platform to showcase their merchandise. The company even sends ambassadors to partner with local businesses and offer trunk shows, and it advertises through local radio stations and print magazines.
Breakout Bras is also committed to collaborating with vendors and serving its community through participation in charity events because this store is about more than making a profit; for Breakout Bras, everything is about improving women’s’ lives and self-perceptions. The store’s staff has participated in 5K races for multiple charities and donated bras to a local charity that provides prom dresses and accessories to underprivileged teens.
Breakout Bras is a measuring tape free zone; fitters size by sight meaning they evaluate a customer’s correct size by assessing imperfections in the fit of her original bra, weighing them against prior fitting experiences and trainings to pull a range of preliminary sizes and styles to try. From there, the fitter narrows her client’s options by taking her preferences into consideration and using a set of specialized criteria to pull styles that accentuate her client’s body as well as her unique personality. Because Breakout Bras is dedicated to finding each customer a perfect garment; managers check the fit of all items before checkout.
The store’s sizing professionals have years of experience; they are highly knowledgeable and have even been certified through vendor programs like Anita Care to properly assist women recuperating from surgery. Customers who are unable to visit Breakout Bras’ retail location can contact its customer service representatives via phone, email, or chat for the same dependable advice and informative explanations of product nuances.
Anyone who is familiar with Breakout Bras will know that the company always has a lot to say because its founders are passionate about their responsibilities to improve the lives of their customers, not just make profits. It offers women difficult to access UK sizes in a comfortable environment. Breakout Bras is not a lavish boutique, and for that reason, the store recognizes it is somewhat of an underdog in the running for these awards; however, Breakout Bras makes decisions based on the women it serves. Many of these women might feel intimidated if they entered a showroom decked in marble details and modern furniture pieces.
The casual atmosphere at Breakout Bras invites clients from all walks of life to embark on their self-improvement journeys without fear of judgement. Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, and that's what Breakout Bras know each customer is going to find each time she visits whether she’s searching for a new sports bra, swimsuit, post-surgery garment, or nursing accessory. Our valued customers know Breakout Bras to be a company built on its relationships with its vendors, distributors, and customers—not on appearances alone.
