If you want to measure bra size correctly, there are a few do’s and don’ts that could come really handy.
| ✅ Do’s | ❌ Don’ts |
|---|---|
| Wear a non-padded bra. | Pull the tape too tight or keep it too loose; keep it snug. |
| Correct your posture; stand straight. | Wear an ill-fitted bra during measurements. |
| Breathe normally during measurements. | If you get a fraction on tape, such as 31.5, don’t round down the size; always round up. |
| Keep the measuring tape flat on your skin. |
Alright, you have done it all right and got a bra size that you are so ready to go ahead with. But how do you know the bra fits you correctly? Here is what you need to know about the cup size, band size, and the straps!
| The Cups | The Band | The Straps |
|---|---|---|
| The cups encapsulate your breasts with no spillage or gaping. | The band snuggly sits flat against your body with no digging or loose fit. | The straps comfortably stay in their place, no digging or slipping. |
| They don’t have any creases or wrinkles. | It feels firm and secure on the loosest hook, without riding up. |
It may include a little hassle, but you need a string and a ruler for bra measurement with a measuring tape. Simply calculate your bust size and band size, but using the string. Then, measure them against a ruler and calculate the difference to determine your size. However, we strongly recommend that you use a soft measuring tape.
It's a good idea to re-measure every 6-12 months, or after significant weight change, pregnancy, or surgery.
If you get an uneven size, i.e., are in between, go a size up, or you could try its sister size.
The number (32, 34, 36, etc.) in your bra size represents your band size, and the letter (A, B, C, D, DD, etc.) is for the cup size.
Your cup size is the difference between your chest size and your bust line measurement, while your bra size is your band size with your cup size.
