BRA SIZE FINDER

Two measurements should be taken (Step 1) under the bust around the rib cage and (Step 2) around the bust at the fullest part, please make sure that the tape is held firmly yet comfortably and not for example at an angle around the body so the tape is lower at front than the back. The tape needs to remain horizontal all around. Write down your measurements.

Now you have these measurements please refer to the conversion tables to find your chest band size.

Bra fitment tips:

The under band should fit comfortably and lay flat against the breastbone.

The underwire should not dig into your breast tissue and should also fit comfortably.

The bust should not spill out at the sides or over the top of the cup.

Conversion Tables:

Step 1 Measure under the bust around the rib cage.
