Find your size at home

All you need is a soft tape measure. Two measurements give you a starting size, and the notes below help you adjust from there.

  1. 1

    Underbust

    Wear a bra without padding. Wrap a soft tape measure around your ribcage, directly under your bust. Keep it level and snug, then breathe out and read the number in centimetres.

  2. 2

    Bust

    Stand relaxed and wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust and across your back. Keep it level and not tight.

  3. 3

    Compare

    The band size comes from your underbust, rounded to the nearest 5 cm. The cup comes from the difference between bust and underbust: about 2 cm per cup step.

Signs the fit is off

  • The band rides up your back: go down a band size and up a cup.
  • The straps dig in: the band is probably too loose and doing too little of the work.
  • Breast tissue spills over the cup: try one cup larger.
  • The gap in the cup: try one cup smaller.
