Measure Your Bra Size
How to Measure your Bra Size (Size in Inches)
Always use a mirror to ensure your
tape measure is even all around the body.
Band Size
To determine the band size, stand with your bra on, and
measure the rib cage directly under the bust. Pull the tape about as snug as
the bra should be.
Measure Your Band
Size
Step1: Stand
straight without leaning your body anywhere. Take an inch tape and wrap it
around your under bust (Below your bust) to identify your band size. The tape
measure should sit where an underwire would go on a bra and be close fitting
around your body.
Bust Size
With bra on, measure around
fullest part of the bust. By comparing this measurement to the bra size, you
determine the cup size.
Measure Your Bust Size
Step2: Measure around your bust at the fullest point. This is generally directly over a woman's nipples. Double check to make sure the tape measure goes straight around you and isn't too tight.
How the Bra Size is determined
To the band size measurement add 5
inches. This gives you the bra size.
Bras are sized only in even
numbers (32, 34, 36), if the bra size is an odd number, go to the next
even number. (i.e add 1)
Example 1:
If you have Band Measurement of 29 inches
your Bra size is : 29 + 5 = 34 inches
Example 2:
If you have Band Measurement 30 inches,
your Bra size is : 30 + 5 = 35 inches
but since Bras are avilable in even sizes only,
your Bra size would be : 35 + 1 = 36 inches
How the Cup Size is determined
Measurement Difference |
Cup Size |
1 inches |
size A |
2 inches |
size B |
3 inches |
size C |
4 inches |
size D |
Example :
If your Bra Size is 32 inches and you measure 34 inches around the fullest part of the bust, thats a 2 inches difference, so you will need a B cup.
