How To Measure Your Bra Size

All the lingerie experts tell us that the majority of women are wearing the incorrect sized bra. This leads to problems with even the right size dress hanging incorrectly spoiling the look. If that dress is your wedding dress it is even more devastating.

Here is the way you should take your measurements at home for perfectly fitting bra.

Step 1: Find your band size
Standing in front of a mirror, wrap the tape measure snugly around your chest, just under or at the crease beneath your breasts and flush against your back. Check in the mirror to make sure the tape measure is parallel to the floor and flat across your back. You may need a friend or partner to help. Record this measurement in inches and write it down. Now you'll need to do some basic math to find your proper band size.

Step 2: Find your cup size
Now, standing in front of the mirror as before, wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of your breasts (at the nipple). The tape measure should be straight, parallel to the floor and flat across your back.

Example: If your Band measurement is 35, and your new measurement, from the fullest part of your breast is 38, the difference is 3, and your cup size is "C".
