How to measure for bra size

You can begin by measuring the ribcage.

Measure directly underneath the bust, swinging around the ribcage. Round the measurement to the nearest even number shown to determine the band size. The band size is your ribcage measurement.

Next, we'll look at measuring the bust.

Hold the measuring tape parallel to the floor while measuring around the back, starting at the fullest part of the bust. Then, round to the nearest whole number to receive your bust size.

Finally, you can measure bra cup size at home using the bust measurement you just received.

Subtract your band size from your bust size, and boom = cup size. 

The cup capacity is shown in inches. 

A cup = 1 inch

B cup = 2 inches

C cup = 3 inches

D cup = 4 inches 

DD cup = 5 inches

DDD = 6 inches

Here is a list of bra size measurements and bra size examples for visual reference:

BAND 28 BUST 32 = 28 D   

BAND 30 BUST 35 = 30DD

BAND 32 BUST 36 = 32D

BAND 34 BUST 35 = 34A

BAND 36 BUST 39 = 36C

BAND 38 BUST 42 = 38D

BAND 28 BUST 34 = 28DDD

BAND 30 BUST 36 = 30DDD

BAND 30 BUST 32 = 30B

The Proper Fit

Does the size you received after measuring surprise you? Certain factors can cause you to change bra size, including a gain or loss in weight, a new exercise regimen, pregnancy, and a fluctuating diet. If you ever need to go down a cup size for a proper fit, you should go up one band size.

The bra brand could also slightly change the size you require. When this happens, a brand often provides a "sister size" to compensate as an alternative. Unfortunately, these sizes are often too large in the band area and too small in cup size leading to unnecessary discomfort. However, through a bit of trial and error, you should be able to discover the size that works best for you. Contact us today with any questions you may have!
