Let’s start with the basics of bra sizing. The alphabetic sizing system (A, B, C, and D) is the backbone of the bra size system. But what does this alphabetizing system of bra sizing actually mean? In a nutshell, A stands for a cup volume that is very small and size D showcases a very large cup volume. However, selecting the proper A, B, C, or D cup size is just the beginning as it only offers a general sizing and does not factor in the chest circumference or your width measurement.
But don’t worry, because there is an accurate bra sizing system that showcases all the available sizes to fit your unique body type, style, and preferences. Through taking certain measurements and understanding the measurement variables of bra sizing, women are now in control of finding their perfect fit. All you really need is a handy measuring tape and few expert tips to get a good handle on how to identify and understand your bra sizes.
The number component of the bra size is all about measuring the circumference of the ribcage. It is typically represented as a number ranging from 28-48, or even higher and shows the area to be measured around the chest. For example, if your chest or ribcage measures 33 inches, then you would be a 34 size.
The letter component of the bra size system showcases the cup size. As mentioned above, it includes A, B, C, and D sizes as well as further sizes such as DD, DDD, G and H cups. To find your cup size, you should measure the fullest part of your bust and subtract the number of your chest measurement. For example, if the fullest part of your bust measures 36 inches and the circumference of your chest measures 33 inches, then the difference is three. Three is the size of a C cup. That means 34 C is your bra size.
But why go through the hassle of understanding, measuring and demystifying your bra size?
