How to Get the Right Bra Size?
Finding the right bra starts with knowing our body. When we can’t choose a bra that fits our size, it both affects the fit of our clothes and doesn’t provide comfort throughout the day. Unfortunately, many women tend to wear the wrong bra size. Studies show that 75% of women choose the wrong size when choosing a bra.
So, how can we tell if a bra is the right size? If the back of your bra rides up, leaves marks on your skin after you take it off, the space between the breasts does not fit properly, or the straps fall off your shoulders, it means that the bra is not true to size. Therefore, to find the right bra size, it is important to take the right measurements first. This process only takes a few minutes. If you want to know your correct bra size, follow the steps to determine your ideal size.
How to Determine Bra Size?
To correctly determine your bra size, you need two separate measurements: the cup size and the cup size. The cup size refers to the length of your back and the cup size refers to the volume of your breasts.
For the most accurate results, it is recommended to take measurements without a bra. If this is not possible, you can also take measurements with a well-fitting bra. With the help of a tape measure, you can take measurements while standing in front of a mirror. If you want, you can get help from a friend. Follow the steps below to determine your bra size correctly:
Body Measurement: Wrap the tape measure around your back, just below your breasts. The tape measure should be tight and in line with your shoulders. This measurement is the basis for your bra size.
Cup Measurement: Measure from the fullest part of your breasts, holding the tape measure parallel to your body. This measurement determines the cup size of your bra.
Using these two measurements, you can find the most suitable bra for your size. The right size provides comfort and helps your clothes look better.
Bra Sizes
To achieve the best results when choosing a bra, it is essential to measure correctly. Bra sizing consists of two basic components: cup size and cup size. Cup size (such as A, B, C, D) determines the size of the breasts, while cup size refers to the measurement taken under the breasts.
Cup sizes indicate how much space your breasts take up in the bra. A Cup is the smallest cup size, while E Cup or DD are suitable for larger breasts. Your cup size ensures that your breast fits comfortably in the bra and provides the right support. The correct cup size is achieved with bras designed to fit your breasts snugly and without discomfort.
It is important that your bra perfectly cups your breasts, providing an aesthetic and comfortable look. At the same time, the model of the bra you choose also affects your appearance. Therefore, both the size and the model should be chosen carefully. The right bra not only provides comfort and support, but also affects how your clothes look on you. Therefore, choosing the right bra size and the right model will improve both the way you look and the way you feel.
What do Bras B and C mean?
Bra sizing should be carefully determined to ensure the correct fit of the cup and breast size. Here are the basics on how to determine these measurements:
B Cup: If your cup size and bust size are equally large, for example if your bust size is 90 cm and your cup size is 85 cm, then a “90 B” bra should be chosen. The B Cup is preferred when the cup size and bust size are closely matched.
C Cup: If your cup size is 1 cup size smaller than your bust size, for example, if your bust size is 90 cm and your cup size is 85 cm, then an “85 C” bra would be appropriate. The C Cup is usually used when the cup size is slightly smaller than the bust size.
Correctly determining these measurements helps bras to provide the ideal fit, both in terms of comfort and aesthetics. These relationships between your cup size and bust size provide an important guide to choosing the most suitable bra.
