Measuring for the Right Bra
The Correct Bra Size
With your bra on, measure underneath
from the center of the breast bone around the body where the natural breast
tissue joins the body. Take a snug measurement.
Add five inches to this measurement. Example: 33” +5” = 38”. This is a size 38
bra. 39” +3” = 42”. This is a size 42 bra.
If there is an uneven measurement, with the added 5”, go up or down to the next
even size.
The Correct Cup Size
Measure over the fullest part of the remaining breast from the
center of your chest to the center of your back. Double with
measurement.
Example: 19” X 2 = 38”.
If this measurement is:
| The same or up to 1” larger than the bra size |
