Numbers are just a starting point; the mirror tells the truth. Look for these signs of a good fit:
They should stay put without digging in. Remember: the band provides 80% of the support, not the straps. Pro Tip: The "Swoop and Scoop"
Subtract your calculated band size from this bust measurement . Each inch of difference represents a cup size: 1 inch = A 2 inches = B 3 inches = C 4 inches = D (and so on) 3. The "Fit Check" (The Most Important Part)
When you put on a bra, lean forward and use your hands to pull all your breast tissue from the sides into the cups. This ensures you’re actually sitting in the bra correctly before you judge the fit.
Your breasts should fill the cups without "quad-boobing" (spilling over the top) or gaping (extra space at the top).
If the number is even, add 0. If it’s odd, add 1. (Example: 31" becomes a 32 band). 2. Measure Your Cup Size
It should be level all the way around. If it arches up your back, the band is too big. You should be able to fit two fingers underneath it.
Wrap a measuring tape snugly around your ribcage, directly under your bust. Keep the tape level and parallel to the floor.
