Measuring Guide


We recommend that ladies come to visit us for a proper fitting as there is no such thing as a definitive bra size. Ultimately this depends on the style and fabric of the bra.

However, we realise that coming to see us is not always possible so we do sell our products on line.

To determine your correct size please use the following guide.

Whilst wearing a supportive bra take the following measurements in centimetres:

Step 1.   Making sure the tape is flat, measure around your body    
directly under your bust.  Note the number in centimetres.
This is Measurement X.

Using measurement X determine your band size from the table below:

Step 2.
Measure around the fullest part of your bust and note the number in centimetres. This is Measurement Y.

Step 3. Take Measurement X away from Measurement Y. This gives you your cup size as in the table below.

12 – 14

A Cup

14 – 16

B Cup

16 – 18

C Cup

D Cup

20 – 22

DD Cup

22 – 24

E Cup

24 – 26

F Cup

26 - 28

G Cup

 

Example:   

Measurement X (band size) is 91cm. On the first table this equals Band Size 40 (GB).

Measurement Y (cup size) is 108cm.

Take Measurement X, 91cm away from Measurement Y, 108 cm.
108 – 91 = 17.

This is 17cm which equals cup size C. Therefore, the bra is size 40C.


Bra Care Guide

 

  • A bras’ elasticity is only good for about 9 months.
  • If you wash your lingerie in the machine expect to shorten its lifespan by around 3 months.
  • Never tumble dry your bra.
  • Always remember to do your new bra up on the loosest hook, you then have two more hooks to use as the bra gets older – this ensures your bras will last as long as possible.
