To measure cup size, follow these steps:
- Measure the band size:
- Use a measuring tape around your ribcage, just under your bust.
- Keep the tape level and snug but not too tight.
- If you get a fraction or an odd number, round up to the nearest even number (e.g., 33.5 inches rounds to 34).
- Measure the bust size:
- Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust.
- Keep the tape level and not too tight.
- Calculate cup size:
- Subtract the band size measurement from the bust measurement.
- The difference in inches determines the cup size, with 1 inch corresponding to an A cup, 2 inches a B cup, 3 inches a C cup, and so on.
Example: If your band size is 34 inches and your bust size is 37 inches, the difference is 3 inches, which corresponds to a C cup, making your bra size 34C.
