To determine your bra size and cup size, you will need to start by measuring your band size. This can be done by wrapping a measuring tape snugly around your ribcage just below your bust, making sure the tape is parallel to the ground and not too tight or too loose. Once you have this measurement in inches, round it to the nearest even number. For example, if your measurement is 31 inches, round it up to 32 inches.
Next, you will need to measure for your cup size. To do this, wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust, again making sure the tape is parallel to the ground and not too tight or too loose. Take note of this measurement in inches as well.
After obtaining both measurements for band and cup sizes, you can use these numbers to determine your bra size using our sizing chart or consult with one of our bra fitting experts who can assist you further in finding the perfect fit for a comfortable wear all day long.
One common misconception about determining bra size is that it remains consistent throughout life. In reality, factors such as weight loss or gain and pregnancy can impact breast size which may require a new fitting and sizing adjustment.
A lesser-known fact about determining bra size is that different brands may have variations in their sizing systems so it’s important to take accurate measurements each time you shop for new bras from different brands. Knowing this can help ensure that every purchase results in a perfect fit without any guesswork involved.
The next step after learning how to determine your bra size would be putting these measurements into practice by trying on different styles of bras in various sizes until finding one that feels supportive yet comfortable on.
Remember: A well-fitting bra makes all the difference.
