Bra Measuring Instructions and Sizing |
- Use a standard dressmaker's tape measure.
- For best results, have someone else measure you.
- If between sizes, buy the larger size.
|
|
1. Band Measurement: |
- Take a snug measurement around your rib
cage, |
under your bust and shoulder blades. |
- Add 5 inches. Example:
30" + 5" = 35" |
|
2. Determine Even Band Size: |
- If you get an even number in Step 1, this
is your Band Size. |
- If you get an odd number in Step 1 (like
35), |
round up one (to 36) to
get your Band Size. |
Example:
35" + 1" = 36" |
|
3. Bust Measurement: |
- With bra on and clothes off, take a loose
measurement |
around the fullest part of your bust. |
Example:
38" |
|
|
4. Determine Cup Size: |
- Subtract Band Measurement (from Step 1)
from |
Bust Measurement (from Step 3). |
Example:
38" - 35" = 3" |
- Use the chart below to determine your Cup
Size: |
Example:
3" = C Cup |
|
If difference is: |
1'' |
2'' |
3'' |
4'' |

then Cup Size is: |
