My bra size, help i got measurments?

Question

hello, well i need to find my bra size, basically the last time i was measured i was told im a 34 D, in some shops it fits me nice, and in others its too big... ive just measured my band and it's 30, and the measurement around the fullest part of my breast is 34, how do i get the size now? i've tried wearing a C cup and they hang out of it but i dont feel big enough or look like a D cup, something isnt right!?

Answer 1

Bras are pretty confusing.

Sometimes you just gotta wear what fits right, even if it's not your size.

Try a 36C.

Answer 2

You should go to a boutique or a department store that specializes in ladies lingerie. They will be able to properly take your measurements and help you to find a bra that fits comfortably and that offers support.

Answer 3

i say go to a boutique that specializes.i went to lasenza and those girls had no idea what they were doing.i was told i was and 34A.so was my friend.that same day we went to lasenza express and were told i was a 34B.wow.....haha.bras fit sometimes even if they are not your size.thats why you should try them on before you buy it.but if ur not feeling comfortable a boutique will give a supportive and good fitting bra.good luck!!

Answer 4

Is the band 30 inches after adding 4? If so you'd be a 30D. A 30D is the same as a 32C or 34B, which is average size.

Answer 5

According to your measurements you would technically be a 36 C. Which is the same cup size as a 34 D, but the larger band size should assist you in feeling a little more comfortable. You're actually between a 34 D and a 36 C which is why you're experiencing problems when trying to find the perfect bra! My advice would be that when you find the perfect bra at your favorite store, buy it in every color, and stick with it. You're not alone, a lot of women are inbetweenies ;)

edit: Actually, your measurement around the fullest part of your bust for a 36 C would be 39 inches. So I think you might be holding the tape more than a little snug.... by the measurements you've given, you would be less than an A cup.  Make sure you're measuring around the fullest part of your bust and that you're holding the tape at a right angle across the side.

Answer 6

I've got exactly the same problem. In some shops, a 34D fits me, while in others a 34C fits me and a D Cup isn't the right size; it's too big. However, I know I'm 34D because I've got fitted and that's what they say I am. When neither a 34D or 34C fit me - which isn't often, but does happen - I always jump down to a 32D or 32C. If that still feels uncomfortable, then I'd go and get fitted again but maybe not at the same place as you normally go; a second opinion is always worth it.

However, maybe your b*****s aren't going fully into the cup or something so that's why the D cup isn't fitting you. When I got fitted I was told that the breast goes around to just before your armpit (odd I know) and so you have to kind of cup it and push it into you bra cup, so it fits you well. Apparantly, people who don't know this are actually wearing the wrong size.

Hope I help
