Measuring for bras and all-in-one garments

1. Under your bust and shoulder blades, take a snug measurement around your rib cage and then add 5 inches. If the number you come up with is even, that is your Band Size. If you get an odd number such as 45 just add an inch to find your size.

2. Remove your top and leave your bra on. Measure loosely around the fullest part of your bust to get your measurement.

3. To determine the cup size, subtract your band measurement from your bust measurement.

For example if you are between 5 4 and 5 8, and weigh between 115 and 140 pounds, you would wear a size medium or if you were between 5 9 and 6 0 and 160 to 180 pounds, a size tall/extra tall. The size charts are online so you can pick the correct size for you. Make sure that you accurately measure both your height and weight to get the correct size. If you are uncertain, only order one item in the size you think will be correct, and then actually try the piece on before ordering more.
