Bra Size Chart & Calculator

Enter two measurements for a fast starting size, or use six measurements for a more considered estimate. Then convert, compare sister sizes, and check the fit.

From label to real fit

How to measure and use a bra size chart

The number is a band reference. The cup letter describes a volume step relative to that band. A useful fitting process measures, tries, isolates the problem, and changes one variable at a time.

01

Measure on bare skin or a thin, unpadded bra

Keep a soft tape level and untwisted. Measure the underbust directly below the breast root. For bust measurements, pass the tape around the fullest point without compressing tissue.

02

Start on the loosest comfortable hook

A new band should sit level and feel secure on the loosest hook, leaving room to use tighter hooks as elastic relaxes. The straps should fine-tune the fit rather than carry most of the support.

03

Use conversion as notation, not a fit guarantee

International charts can align band and cup steps, but they cannot make two brands use the same wire width, cup depth, stretch, or grading. Check the exact product chart and returns policy before buying.

04

Compare a size and a shape

Gapping does not always mean the cup is too large, and tightness does not always mean the band is too small. A cup that is too shallow or too small can pull the band tight; a tall or open cup can gap despite adequate volume.

Measurement guide

Current measurement

Snug underbust

Measure directly under the breast root with the tape comfortably firm and level.

  • Use the same unit for every field.
  • Keep the tape parallel with the floor unless the position guide says otherwise.
  • Repeat a measurement that looks surprising; small differences are normal.
  • Do not pull to the point of pain.

Method, sources & limitations

What the calculator does

Quick mode selects the nearest supported even band from the snug underbust and compares the standing bust with that band. Detailed mode considers loose, snug, and tight underbust measurements, then combines standing, leaning, and lying bust measurements with a robust weighted estimate when they are widely spread.

The calculator does not automatically add four inches to the underbust. When an input is near a band or cup boundary, it shows another starting size rather than pretending the estimate is exact.

How conversion works

Each size is stored as a canonical even band plus a cup-volume index. Display labels are then generated from explicit US, UK, and continental cup sequences. This avoids treating DD, DDD, E, and F as if they meant the same thing in every system.

Italy and Japan have especially brand-dependent labeling and availability. Treat every conversion as a comparison point and verify the brand’s own chart.

What the calculator cannot know

Measurements cannot fully describe tissue distribution, breast root width, center spacing, cup projection, fabric firmness, wire shape, sensory preference, or a manufacturer’s grading. Two bras with the same label may fit differently. This tool is independent, informational, and not affiliated with the sources below.
