HOW TO MEASURE BRA SIZE


Many women are surprised to learn that they’ve been wearing the wrong bra size. There are lots of reasons why women wear the wrong bra size – poor measuring skills, changes in body size, and changes in wardrobe.
Believe it or not, 80% of women wear the wrong size bra. The most common mistake is wearing a band size which is too big, and/or a cup size which is too small. You may have heard that 36C is the “average bra size”. Although the average bra size is often quoted as 36C, most people who wear this size should actually be wearing a 34D or 34DD bra. Cup sizes are relative to the band size, so a D cup, for example, is not the same size in every bra. A 32D is the same size as a 34C or 36B, but on a smaller frame. A 28F is actually 2 cup sizes smaller than a 38D. You may not think of yourself as being busty, but in moving to a smaller band size you will find that you need a bigger cup size.
