80% of women choose their bras wrong. Some people buy very large models in volume that have small cups. The table and certain measurements help to determine the size of bras correctly.

Learning to measure correctly

Many mistakenly believe that the cup in bras with different volumes is exactly the same. However, it is not. Its size depends entirely on the volume of the product.

First you need to decide how the bra should sit correctly. To do this, attention should be paid to the density of the strip that encircles the chest. The gap between it and the body should not exceed two fingers in thickness. The fabric of a quality product never sticks out of the cups. The strip that is between them should not cut into the body and cause discomfort. If the cup is very small, then the breast begins to fall out. This product is not suitable.

So, the table will help you correctly determine the size of the bras, which must be carefully studied before you go shopping. But in differentcountries, the values are completely different, so it is worth familiarizing yourself with all possible indicators in order to make the right choice.

Pay attention to the shape of the breasts

So, we learned how to determine the size of the bra, the table told us the correct value, but the bra still does not fit well. He probably just doesn't fit. Here you need to pay attention to some nuances. For a small chest, it is better to choose a balcony. This bra has a soft cup and will look good. For sagging, bumpy breasts, an underwired model is needed. Separated cups fit the chest well, but it is better to refuse soft cups.

Different measurement systems

We are used to what helps to determine the size of the bra table. But there are different meanings because there are two measurement systems.

Modern measurements are made in this way. First you need to take measurements under the chest. At this time, the hands should be lowered. If the value is odd, then you can choose a model either smaller or larger. For example, having received a result of 78.6 cm, you can choose a bra in size 76 or 80.

Next, you need to calculate the cup. To do this, you need to lean towards the ground and take measurements in the middle. You can ask someone for help. Next, you need to subtract the result from the volume of the chest. This indicator contains a table for determining the sizebra.

0	AA	10-11
1	A	12-13
2	B	13-15
3	С	15-17
4	D	18-20
5	DD	20-22
6	E	23-25
6+	F	26-28

Leading UK manufacturers often use FF, G, GG, H, HH, J, JJ, K, KK, L, LL in addition to the above. American manufacturers - DDD and DDDD. In fact, this is the equivalent of E and F. Traditional measurement also involves first measuring under the bust. Next, 10 centimeters must be added to the integer, and 12 to the odd. Now you need to measure the chest itself while standing and again subtract the volume of the chest from the value that was obtained above. Now you can determine the cup size.

A	2.5cm
B	5cm
С	7.5cm
D	10cm
DD	12.5cm
DDD (E in UK)	15cm
DDDD/F (F in UK)	17.5cm
G/H (FF in UK)	20cm
I/J (G in UK)	22.5cm
J (GG in UK)	25cm

Today manufacturers mainly use the modern system, but there areand those that use the traditional one. It is very difficult to find out exactly which one is used in a particular model. In the store, everything is much simpler. You can just try it on and make your choice. But what if you buy online? It is necessary to choose sites that have a flexible return system.

Let's go shopping

Don't go to a department with a small assortment. Often, sales assistants of such establishments try to sell you the thing that fell into their hands, and not at all what you are looking for. Before you go for a fitting, you need to clarify whether there are products of larger and smaller sizes. It is necessary to immediately go for a new thing to a large shopping center with a good assortment of goods. It is better to take measurements in two ways, so as not to make a mistake with the choice. Measurements must be taken without a bra. If your modesty does not allow you to do this, then you can wear a T-shirt on your naked body that will fit your chest well.

Does it sit well?

The table will help you find out the correct bra sizes, but fitting is still necessary. The bra should be put on correctly so that the chest does not fall out. Do not worry that the hooks are very difficult to fasten. So the figure can be made visually slimmer.

Now you need to adjust the straps so that they do not cut into the body. The chest should not hang down freely. A gap of one finger between the back and the bra is allowed. Do not tighten too much so that the product does not lose elasticity. Cupshould not be half empty, but the chest should not fall out of it. Now you can put on top of the top and evaluate how it looks with your new thing. Do not listen to other people's advice. If all measurements are taken correctly, then choosing underwear will not be a difficult task.
