General
Bra Fitting Guidelines
Finding
your bra band size.
Measurements should
be taken while wearing a bra. The measuring tape should
be held snug, but not tight while measuring. Begin by
measuring around the ribcage directly underneath the
bust. If the measurement is even add 4" and if
it is odd add 5" to result in a whole number for
the band size. For example: If you measure 30"
add 4" and your band size will be 34. If you measure
31" add 5" and your band size would be a 36.
Finding
your bra cup size.
To find your cup
size, measure gently around the body across the high
point or fullest point of the bustline while wearing
a bra. If this measurement is one inch more than your
band size your cup size is an A. Two inches more than
your band size is a B cup. Three inches more and your
cup size is a C and four inches more is a D cup. These
are general guidelines for establishing a good starting
point; sizes will vary depending on what style of bra
you are wearing.
