You'll need a pencil or pen and paper and a soft measuring tape. With the tape measure follow these easy steps to find your right size... Wearing your most comfortable brassiere, take a bra measurement right under your bust, all the way around your chest. Keep the measuring tape straight and parallel to the floor to ensure an accurate measurement. Write this number down.
Round this measurement to the nearest inch. So, for example if you measured 33 1/4", round up to 33"...if you measured 32 1/2", round down to 32". Then write it down. To get the correct bra size (bra band size) take the number you wrote down...if it's an odd number, add 5"...if it's an even number add 4". This is your bra band size.
Ok, so far? For your cup size, take a taut measurement around the fullest part of your bust. Remember to keep the measuring tape in a straight line parallel to the floor, to get an accurate measurement. Round this measurement to the nearest inch. So, for example if you measured 33 1/4", round up to 33"...if you measured 32 1/2", round down to 32". Write it down. Subtract your bra band measurement from your cup size measurement, and write this number down. If the difference is 0-1/2" your cup size is an AA If the difference is 1/2"-1" your cup size is an A If the difference is 2" your cup size is a B If the difference is 3" your cup size is a C If the difference is 4" your cup size is a D If the difference is 5" your cup size is a DD or E If the difference is 6" your cup size is a DDD or F If the difference is 7" your cup size is a G If the difference is 8" your cup size is an H If the difference is 9" your cup size is an I If the difference is 10" your cup size is a J
