Women’s Bra Size Guide

Bras don't use the same size logic as the rest of your wardrobe, a bra size is a band and cup measurement, not an alpha or dress size. Enter your band and bust measurements below to calculate yours, shown in US sizing first with the UK and EU equivalents right alongside. Looking for panties instead? See our Panty Size Guide.

Measuring tips for your bra size

  • Band: measure directly underneath your bust, wrapping snugly around your ribcage. Keep the tape level and parallel to the floor.
  • Bust: measure around the fullest part of your bust, tape level, wearing a non-padded bra if you can.
  • Cup size comes from the difference between the two, not from the bust measurement alone.

Band & Cup Size Reference

Band size in US/UK and EU, plus how the cup letter is read from the difference between your bust and band measurements. Systems match up to a D cup, then diverge.

Fit Tips for Bras

Numbers alone don't guarantee a good fit. A few things worth knowing before you buy:

Band Fit
The band does 80 to 90% of the support, not the straps. It should sit level all the way around, front and back, and feel snug on the loosest of the three hooks when the bra is new, so you have room to tighten it as it stretches with wear.
Cup Fit & Coverage
There should be no spilling over the top or sides, and no gaping or wrinkled fabric in the cup. If there's an underwire, it should sit flat against your ribcage, fully encasing your breast tissue rather than resting on top of it or digging into the side.
Straps
Straps should stay in place without digging into your shoulders or sliding off. If you're tightening them constantly to stop the band riding up, the band is likely too large, adjust that first.
Between Band Sizes?
Try sister sizing: go down a band and up a cup for roughly the same volume with a snugger band, for example a 36C and a 34D are close equivalents. Useful if the calculator result feels loose in the band or tight in the cup.
Everyday vs. Going Out
Everyday t-shirt bras favor smooth, lightly padded cups for a seamless look under clothing. Going-out styles like balconette or plunge shift the coverage lower and wider, worth trying a size either side of your usual if the style is very different from what you normally wear.
Wired vs. Wire-Free
An underwire should encircle your breast tissue and rest flat against your ribcage, not dig into it. Wire-free styles rely more on the band and fabric structure for support, so band fit matters even more in these.

About This Tool

Our Bra Size Calculator works from your band and bust measurements to find your band and cup size, since bras use their own sizing logic rather than the site's general alpha sizing used elsewhere.

  • Covers US/UK bands 28 to 46 and cups AA to I
  • Works from band and bust measurements
  • Converts between inches and centimeters
  • Shows the full band and cup reference chart alongside your result

How to Measure Yourself

Please note: These measurements and size conversions are intended as a general guide only.
