How to Measure Bra Size: Step-by-Step Guide
1. Measure Your Underbust (Band Size)
- Wrap a soft measuring tape snugly around your ribcage, just under your bust.
- Ensure the tape is level all the way around.
- If it's an odd number, round up.
2. Measure Your Overbust (Bust Size)
- Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust.
- Keep it flat and not too tight.
- Subtract band size to determine cup size.
