 Measurements
What size are your breasts?
Preparing To Measure
For best results, measure yourself wearing an unlined or lightly lined bra.
Step One: Band Size
Using a soft tape-measure, measure around the ribcage directly under the bust.
The tape should rest on the lower band of your bra. Be sure the tape is snug,
smooth across the back and level with the front.
Add 5 to this measurement to obtain your band size. For example, if your ribcage
measurement is 29" + (5) = 34" band size. If the resulting band size is an odd
number like 33", you can usually go to the next even band size (34"), but you
may also want to try the next lower band size (32").
Step Two: Cup Size
Measure completely around the bust at the fullest point, holding the tape
measure straight but not tight. The difference between this measurement and your
BAND size is your cup size. Each inch of difference is equal to one cup size.
For example, if your band size is 34" and your bust measurement is 35", you wear
an "A" cup.
if the difference is:
less than 1 inch =AA cup
1 inch =A cup
2 inches =B cup
3 inches =C cup
4 inches =D cup
5 inches = DD cup
While this method is generally reliable, every woman's figure is different and
results may vary slightly. We recommend that you try several sizes and styles to
find the fit that works best for you. You can also visit a
