How to measure yourself for a bra ?
To get good support, you must get the right size.
1) Using a tape measure, take your chest measurement just below your breasts.
Chest measurements | 68 / 72 | 73 / 77 | 78 / 82 | 83 / 87 | 88 / 92 | 93 / 97 | 98 / 102 | Size | 70 (Eu 32) | 75 (Eu 34) | 80 (Eu 36) | 85 (Eu 38) | 90 (Eu 40) | 95 (Eu 42) | 100 (Eu 44) |
Example: between 73 and 77 cm = size 90. 2) Take your chest measurement around the tips of your breasts. This is to measure your cup size. | Cup A | Cup B | Cup C | Cup D | Cup E | Cup F | Size | | | | | | | 70 (Eu 32) | 81 / 83 | 84 / 86 | 87 / 89 | 90 / 92 | 93 / 95 | 96 / 98 | 75 (Eu 34) | 86 / 88 | 89 / 91 | 92 / 94 | 95 / 97 | 98 / 100 | 101 / 103 | 80 (Eu 36) | 91 / 93 | 94 / 96 | 97 / 99 | 100 / 102 | 103 / 105 | 106 / 108 | 85 (Eu 38) | 96 / 98 | 99 / 101 | 102 / 104 | 105 / 107 | 108 / 110 | 111 / 113 | 90 (Eu 40) | 101 / 103 | 104 / 106 | 107 / 109 | 110 / 112 | 113 / 115 | 116 / 118 | 95 (Eu 42) | 106 / 108 | 109 / 111 | 112 / 114 | 115 / 117 | 118 / 120 | 121 / 123 | 100 (Eu 44) | 111 / 113 | 114 / 116 | 117 / 119 | 120 / 122 | 123 / 125 | 126 / 128 |
Example: between 89 and 91 cm = cup B. Therefore you need a 90B Advice for trying-on: 1) Cup: If the cup cuts into or flattens or the breast: try a larger cup size. If the fabric in the up folds: try a smaller cup. 2) Underwiring: If the underwiring does not touch your rib cage: try a bra with a larger cup. 3) The back: If the back of the bra rides up: lengthen the straps. Othwise try a smaller chest size. 4) The straps: If the straps cut into your shoulder or fall off: try a style with wider straps or adjust the straps.
