How do you find out your bra cup size?
The most simplest way to determine an estimatedcup (and bra) size is this:1. Remove all clothing from your torso up (no shirt, no bra, etc.)2. Grab a cloth measuring tape.3. Take the measuring tape, and wrap it even around your ribcage, underneath your breasts. Pull the tape snugly.4. Record that number.5. Take the measuring tape and wrap it evenly around the fullest part of your breasts.6. Record that number.Now, take the number from Direction 4 (ribcage)and subtract it from the number you got in Direction 6 (bust).Example:Bust: 35 inchesRibcage: 26 inches35-26=9There is a 9 inch difference between ribcage and bust.Now you know the number part (the band size) of the bra size is 26, and you need to figure out the cup size. Since there is a 9 inch difference, you need to count up to the 9th bra letter. You can use the chart below or the one on this website: http://bustyresources.wikia.com/wiki/Bra_sizing_by_country#USUK cups: A B C D DD E F FF G GG H HH J JJ K KK L LLUS cups: A B C D DD/E DDD/F DDDD/G H I J K L M NThe 9th cup is bolded in both the UK and US cups, so our example person now has a starting cup size of a UK G or a US I, or a bra size of 26G (UK) and 26I (US). Unfortunately, no US company makes I cups in 26 bands (or any band under 34), or even makes 26 bands, so our example peson would want to stick to their UK size of 26G.However, this simple method in pratice only gives a one-dimmensional take on your bra size. To get a much more accurate estimate, you will need to take 5 different measurements. For more in-depth reading, I recommend going through these websites as they have a wealth of information about determing bra size:http://bustyresources.wikia.comhttp://reddit.com/r/abrathatfitshttp://bratabase.comIt must also be noted that you do not add inches to your ribcage measurement, and do not measure for a band size underneath your armpits. This is incorrect and will cause you to come up with an inaccurate bra size, which can cause numerous health issues (back pain, underwires digging, scabbing, sores, breast pain, blocked milk ducts, damaged breast tissue, etc.) In the correct size you not be painfully aware you are wearing a bra (no stabbing, nothing), and you should also get a great lift and shape.
