The battle of bra

Top lingerie company exec says 96% Indian girls don't know their cup size. Hot Delhi girls respond


He should concentrate on his briefs first. The girls are becoming aware with time about what they are wearing and what is right for them. It's just a derogatory comment on not only Indian women but women as a whole.

- Tina Chatwal, model


I agree there are many Indian women who don't know how to buy the right lingerie. But surely this number cannot be as high as 96 per cent. We are getting more aware with each day.

- Amanpreet Wahi, model


I think the number of women who wear the wrong kind of bra could be even higher, say something around 98 per cent. I totally agree with it.

- Monikangana Dutta, model


I don't agree with their figure. It is just a stunt to gain publicity. Though I agree a number of women don't know about their right bra size but the knowledge is increasing.

- Krishna Somani, model


The figure is very high. I reckon it would be around 40-60 per cent. Forget about the girls walking on streets, even 20 per cent of the models don't know their cup sizes.

- DJ Barkha Kaul


Ninety-six per cent of women in India are wearing the wrong size of bra, so we want to educate the Indian consumer about their size. We will measure the consumer and tell their right size

Cup it: While the lingerie company claims most Indian women are not aware of the right bra size, our girls think the figure is exaggerated
