Step-by-Step Measurement Guide
⭐ Tools You’ll Need
A specialized breast measuring tape:
- Back features a bra fit guide with visuals showing how to measure for a bra.
- Colourful band size zones (e.g., 67.5-72.5 cm = blue, 72.5–77.5 cm = green) make readings clear at a glance.
A mirror (to ensure tape alignment).
⚡Step 1: Measure Your Underbust (Band Size)
How to:
- Stand straight, exhale, and wrap the tape snugly around your ribcage under your breasts.
- Match the tape’s color zone to your measurement (e.g., 75 cm falls in the "72.5–77.5 cm " green section = band size 75).
No calculator needed: The tape’s bra fit guide visually confirms alignment.
⚡ Step 2: Measure Your Overbust (Bust Size)
How to:
- Bend forward 45–90°, wrap the tape around the fullest part of your breasts.
- Check the guide’s bust measurement diagram to avoid squeezing.
⚡ Step 3: Find Your Cup Size
Subtract band size from bust size (e.g., 88 cm − 75 cm = 13 cm).
Use the tape’s cup size table:
- Printed cup size table on the back converts differences to cups (e.g., 13 cm = B cup).

Confirming Your Fit: The At-Home Test
Even with perfect measurements, always test bras physically:
Band: Should fit snugly on the loosest hook—able to slide 1–2 fingers underneath.
Cups:
- No spillage or gaps when moving.
- The center gore lies flat against your sternum.
When to Remeasure
Your size changes with:
⚖️ Weight shifts (>5 kg gain/loss),
🤰 Pregnancy/postpartum,
🩺 Hormonal changes (e.g., menopause, PCOS).
Expert Tip: Measure every 6–12 months or after major body changes.
