What 1,147 Messenger Conversations Taught Us

The short answer: Forty-three percent of you open with a size question. Forty-one percent with the price. A quarter ask about colour. We read every thread, and this is what 1,147 Messenger conversations taught us.

Between June and July 2026, our team read through 1,147 Messenger threads. Not to sell, but to understand. What do women actually want to know before they buy a bra?

What you ask about, ranked

What these numbers tell us

Size is the first barrier. Nearly half of you start with 'amar size ki hobe?' You do not know your size, and that is not your fault. Nobody has ever measured you. That is why we offer free fittings in every store.

Price is the second. Forty-one percent of you ask the price before anything else. You are comparing to the market bra, and the difference is real. We explain what you get for the price: fabric that lasts 6 to 9 months, a fit advisor who measures you, and an exchange policy if it does not work.

3XL and above is 24% of demand. Nearly a quarter of you are looking for sizes above 2XL. Most styles run M to 3XL, with core styles reaching 5XL and a plus size line to 7XL. Band-and-cup styles come in bands 34 to 44, cups A to DD.

The questions behind the questions

Behind 'price koto?' is often 'is it worth it?' Behind 'size chart ache?' is often 'will it fit me without trying?' Behind '3XL available?' is often 'do you make bras for women like me?' The answer to all three is yes.

Questions women ask us

Where did this data come from?

Our team read 1,147 Messenger threads from June and July 2026 and tagged each one by topic. This is real data from real conversations, not a survey.

Why share this publicly?

Because it proves that the questions women have about bras are normal, common, and shared by thousands of others. You are not the only one who does not know her size. Forty-three percent of everyone who messages us starts there.
