Some tips on how to measure bra size
What you should remember choosing your lingerie
Not only does every woman feel craving for looking beautiful but also she desires to enjoy some comfort while wearing her lingerie. So you should never be in a hurry choosing your future bra. You shouldn’t grab lingerie off the sales rack (no matter how cheap it is) without even trying it on. Otherwise, you will discover later on that your lingerie doesn’t feel right, or doesn’t look very good under clothing. Remember that your lingerie apart from being beautiful should be well-constructed because it supports and enhances the body; it is something you are wearing next to your skin. Almost your second skin! Is it worth buying if this “second skin” is not comfortable at all?
Need the right size?
The hardest part while choosing your lingerie is to get something that will fit you well. The models vary in fabric, style and size so it’s up to you to decide what to buy. I just want to give you some tips how to choose your right size as it is the first step to your comfort and beauty. There are a lot of factors that can affect your bust measurements, for example, pregnancy, exercise, birth control pills or weight fluctuations. The average woman wears six different bra sizes throughout her life. Accordingly, you should know how to measurer bra size.
Some tips on how to measure bra size
First of all, you should measure for band size. Keeping the measuring tape parallel with the ground, measure around your bra directly under your bust after expelling all air from your lungs (this measurement should be as small as possible). Round all fractional measurements to the nearest whole number. If the measurement is even, add 4″, if the measurement is odd, add 5″.
Secondly, you are to measure for cup size. Standing straight, with your arms at your side, measure at the fullest part of your bust (while wearing a non-padded bra) making sure the measuring tape is parallel with the ground and not binding. Round all fractional measurements to the nearest whole number.
And finally, you are to calculate your bra size. Subtract your band measurement from your cup measurement. Generally, for each inch in difference, the cup goes up by one size.
An example for you
Just to settle an example.
1) 34″ under measurement +4″ = 38″ band
2) 40″ over measurement
3) 40″ - 38″ = 2″ or Cup “B”
Your size would be 38B
You also should remember that this measuring system tends to become less accurate when the cup sizes go above a D. That is why some manufacturers name larger cup sizes differently. Have a right choice!
