How to Take Accurate Measurements
- Wear a non-padded bra or no bra for the most accurate measurements.
- Band/Underbust: Measure directly under your bust where a bra band would sit. Keep the tape measure snug and parallel to the ground.
- Full Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust (typically at nipple level). Keep the tape measure parallel to the ground.
- Stand straight with your arms relaxed at your sides during both measurements.
- Take each measurement twice to confirm accuracy.

What Is the Bra Size Calculator?
The Bra Size Calculator is a tool that helps you determine your ideal bra size based on your underbust and full bust measurements. By combining this data with your region, body frame, and preferences, it provides a recommended size, alternative "sister sizes," international equivalents, and fitting advice.
Formula Used for Bra Sizing
Band Size: Rounded or adjusted value based on underbust measurement and region.
Cup Size: Difference between full bust and band measurements.
Example: If Full Bust = 36", Underbust = 32"
Cup Difference = 36 - 32 = 4 inches โ Cup Size = D
Resulting Bra Size = 32D
