Navigating the maze of bra sizing can often feel like cracking an ancient code, leaving many in the lurch of lingerie limbo. The core of the sizing conundrum lies in the disparity between methods used, leading to widespread confusion and a staggering statistic: nearly 8 out of 10 women wear the wrong bra size. At the heart of this issue is the fundamental misunderstanding of how a bra should fit, and that's where the BRABAR movement steps ināadvocating for a sizing revolution for the next generation.
The Common Misconception
Take, for example, the sizes 28DD and 32A. Youād be forgiven for assuming that a 28DD is a rare, almost exotic size, while a 32A sounds far more commonplace. Yet, this illustrates the irony of traditional bra sizing. These sizes can actually represent the same breast volume but are distributed differently across the band and cup, revealing why bra sizing can be so bewildering.
Decoding the Math
The global standard, and what BRABAR fervently recommends, is the rib cage method, which involves measuring the underbust and rounding to the nearest even number. If a woman measures 29 inches under her bust, the rib cage method rounds to a neat 30. This same woman measures 31 inches at her armpit level, which traditional methods would round to 32. Yet, her overbust remains a constant 33 inches. The formula, then, is a simple subtraction: bust measurement minus band size equals cup size in inches. With the rib cage method, she's a 30C, but the armpit method reduces her to a 32A.
The Fallacy of the Plus Four Method
The plus four method exacerbates this confusion. If our hypothetical woman takes her 29-inch rib cage measurement and adds four, as per the outdated guidance, her band size balloons to 33 inches, equating her overbust measurement. This matching figure erroneously suggests an A cup, although her actual 5-inch variance points clearly to a DD.
Understanding the BRABAR Philosophy
BRABAR believes a bra should fit snugly around the rib cage, akin to a strapless bra, providing 80% of the support and ensuring the weight is not hanging unsightly from your shoulders. Our best strapless bra selections champion this snug fit, rebuking the hammock-like sag that too often comes with ill-fitting bands and improperly sized cups.
Promoting the Rib Cage Method
Our detailed FIT GUIDE walks you through the rib cage method, advocating for accuracy over approximation. This method guarantees the band fits securely, providing the intended support and ensuring the cups maintain their true capacity and shape.
Why Change is Imperative
The plus four and armpit methods are not just slightly off; they're wholly counterintuitive. They distort the fitting process, leading to bras that neither fit nor flatter. A woman who measures as a 28DD by the rib cage method should not add four inches to her band size, as it misrepresents her actual proportions and diminishes the support she needs.
BRABAR's Movement for Standardization
We are champions of this movement, demanding a standardized sizing system that recognizes the importance of a true fit. Itās not just about comfort; itās about health, posture, and self-esteem. Every bust size deserves to be accurately represented and catered to, with a vast array of sizes of bra readily available. Our collections are designed to embrace every woman with the measuring bust technique that honors her true dimensions.
BRABAR is more than a brand; itās a clarion call for change in an industry long overdue for a sizing overhaul. It's time for the lingerie world to embrace this standardized, logical, and inclusive approach to bra sizing, ensuring every woman can confidently say, "This is the bra near me" that I've been searching for. Join the revolution, and letās fit the future together.
Continuing from where we left off, let's dive deeper into the world of bra sizes and the mathematics that underpin a fit so precise, it feels custom-made. BRABAR's mission is to ensure every woman can find her perfect match within the wide array of sizes ranging from 28AA to 38DDD/F.
A Spectrum of Sizes
Imagine a size for every body and every stage of lifeāthis is the heart of BRABAR's collection. From the dainty 28AA, often a starting point for many young women, to the fuller and equally beautiful 38DDD/F, each size has its place. In between, every increment is significant, from 28A to 28B, 28C all the way through 28D, 28DD, and 28DDD/F, each woman can find her fit.
As we move through the spectrum, the numbers and letters tell a story. Take, for example, a 30B and a 32C; their cups hold a similar volume but are designed for different body frames. The journey continues through 34D, 36DD, and beyond, ensuring no one is left behind.
Mathematics Behind the Measurements
To elucidate the math, letās examine some examples. If a woman's underbust measures at 29 inches, we round to a 30 band per the rib cage method. Suppose her bust measures 33 inches. The bust minus the band size (33 - 30) leaves us with a 3-inch differenceāindicating a 30C. However, should we fall prey to the plus four method, her band size would falsely inflate to a 34 (29 + 4), which against a 33-inch bust suggests a non-existent cup size.
Consider another scenario: a woman with a 27-inch underbust, which rounds to a 28 band. If her bust measures 31 inches, the subtraction gives us a 3-inch difference. This points to a 28C. But if she mistakenly adds four inches, she'd be shopping for a 32 band, potentially ending up with a bra that fails to provide the snug, supportive fit that's crucial for about 80% of the bra's functionality.
The BRABAR Movement for Sizing Standardization
Why is this standardization crusade essential? Because wearing a bra that doesn't fit is more than just uncomfortableāit can lead to back pain, poor posture, and a compromised silhouette. The plus four method and armpit measuring are artifacts of a bygone era, one that didn't recognize the diversity of women's bodies.
BRABAR advocates for the rib cage method because itās logical, straightforward, and respects the natural variance in women's bodies. It's a call to move beyond the archaic and embrace a system that sees women for who they areāunique in every way.
By embracing the rib cage method detailed in our fit guide, we say goodbye to the guessing games of the past. No longer will the 28DDs of the world be shrouded in mystery, nor will the 32As be the default for the uninformed. Instead, every woman will have access to a bra that fits snugly, supports adequately, and celebrates her body, just as it should be.
It's time for a sizing revolution. It's time for BRABAR.Ā Discovering how do you measure cup size on a bra is crucial for achieving the perfect fit, and BRABAR's E-Z Fit Method is designed to simplify this process for you. Ensuring your bra fits securely around your ribcage, like a strapless bra, rather than depending on the shoulder straps, is essential for both comfort and confidence. Measuring yourself at home is straightforward with our guide.
Step 1: Measuring Band Size
Begin by measuring your ribcage directly under your bust. Wrap the measuring tape around your ribcage and round this measurement to the nearest even whole number to determine your band size.
Step 2: Measuring Bust Size
Next, measure the fullest part of your bust (over the nipples) and round this number to the nearest whole number to find your bust size.
Step 3: Finding Your Bra Cup Size
To find your cup size, subtract your band size from your bust size. The difference in inches corresponds to your cup size, where 1 inch equals an A cup, 2 inches a B cup, etc.
This approach ensures your breasts are comfortably accommodated, preventing the discomfort associated with bras that are too tight or too loose. Remember, the correct cup size is integral for a bra that provides both comfort and support.

Regular measurement of your bra size is recommended every 6 months to a year due to possible changes in your body. Key indicators of an ill-fitting bra include visible cup wrinkling or gapping, breast spillage, a back band that rises, pinching straps, and more. Correcting these issues is key to ensuring daily comfort and confidence.
