How to Take Bra Measurements
Finding the perfect bra size is essential because an ill-fitting bra can completely ruin an otherwise flawless outfit. Worse yet, it can lead to breast pain, backaches, or discomfort from sore, achy breasts, especially for those with large breasts. Whether your band size or cup size changes due to the natural fluctuations in our bust caused by genetics, time, or phases in life it’s worth the effort to ensure you are wearing the right undergarments.
Start by learning how to measure your bust and rib cage with minimal tool a tape measure and some free time at home. Wrap the tape snugly around your circumference just below your bust to find your band size in inches, typically an even number ranging from 28-52. Next, measure around the fullest part of your bust and subtract the band size from this number. This difference determines your cup size, represented by letters A to K. For example, a C-cup or D-cup may shift over time due to growth, shrinkage, or even washings.
If this process feels daunting, consider virtual fittings or using bra size calculators offered by various lingerie brands like Fleur du Mal. By managing irregular cup sizes and focusing on a perfect fit, you all ensure that your undergarments provide the support you need for any day no more pinch, no more joke.
Measure Your Band Size
To find your perfect band size without guesswork, start by standing braless or wearing a non-padded bra for accuracy. Wrap a measuring tape around your torso, placing it directly under your bust and ensuring it sits snugly but comfortably on your ribcage. The tape should be level all around your body and not slip out of place. Check that it sits straight across your back and that you can fit two fingers beneath the tape comfortably. Take deep breaths to ensure the measurement is not too tight, which allows the band to sit securely when worn.
Now, round this measurement to the nearest whole number. If your measurement is even, add four inches; if it’s odd, add five. This calculated sum becomes your band size.
For Example
- if you measure 33 inches, rounding to the nearest whole number would give 34.
- Adding four inches results in a band size of 38.
- A Good Housekeeping product analyst from the Textiles Lab suggests that this traditional calculation method helps the band fit comfortably beneath fitted t-shirts and clothes.
Measure your bust
When it comes to measuring your bust accurately, its essential to know the best way to do it right for a comfortable fit. Start by taking a measuring tape and wrap it loosely around your back and shoulder blades. Run it from the back to the front, bringing it across the fullest part of your chest at nipple level. Make sure the tape stays parallel to the ground for an accurate reading. If its too tight or too loose, the result might be off, so aim for a snug but comfortable fit. Note the number you get and round it to the nearest whole number for a clean measurement.
A well-measured bust size helps your bra fit well and ensures that the values you get are perfect for your shape. Keeping the tape at the right level and measuring without pulling it too tight can help capture an accurate result. When you are ready to choose your next bra, these details will make all the difference in comfort and style.
Calculate to find your cup size
To find your cup size, start by using a bit of bra math. there are 2 steps
- Take your band size from
- Your bust measurement.
Now, subtract the band measurement from the bust to get the difference in inches. This difference is what typically corresponds to your cup letter on a chart.
For Example
if your bust measures 37 inches and your band is 34 inches, the difference is 3 inches, which means a C cup. So, you would refer to the chart to see that 3 inches equals a C cup size, making your bra size 34C.
Each number on the Three table below represents a cup size:
- 1 inch is an A cup
- 2 inches is a B cup
- 3 inches is a C cup
Be sure to measure the fullest part of your bust for accuracy, and use the calculated difference to determine your perfect fit. This method ensures you’re wearing a bra that fits well, without any gaps or discomfort.
