Dispel ‘Bra Size’ Myths

Confused about your bra size? This is not as uncommon as you may think - 80% of women tend to wear the wrong size! With this fabulous guide, it is now oh-so-simple to measure yourself from the comfort of your seat. After using a tape measure to check, it is easy to convert your size through the chart located below. 

There is nothing easier than this - all you need to do is:

Measure under your bust and if the number is even, add 4.

If the number of inches is odd, add 5.

This should give you a number such as 32 which is your band size.

To find out your cup size:

Measure the fullest part of your breasts. The difference between the two measurements gives your bra size.

+ 1 inches means you are cup size B so you would be a 32 B

+2 inches means you are a cup size C

+3 inches means you are a cup size D

+4 inches means you are a cup size DD

+5 inches is a cup size E

And so on through to a G cup.

This is a great starting point to finding out your size. Try a couple off bras on to make sure and at Lingerie Please we don’t mind if you try on a couple of our bras and let us know what you think of this fabulous chart!

If you are located in Europe or the Australia, do not despair! We've included a size chart below so that you can measure as indicated, then convert the measurement for your understanding.
