Bra fitting tips
The underband of your bra should fit comfortably in the middle of your back and not rise up or down. The underwire should never dig into your breast tissue and should fit snugly under the arm. The underwire should lay flat against the breastbone. The bust should not spill over the top of the cup. If it does you are wearing the incorrect cup size. If the bra straps are digging into your shoulder and feel uncomfortable it means the straps are taking the weight of your bust whereas the underband should be doing this job.
Measurement guide for Legs and Co bras
To establish which size bra will fit follow these 3 steps. The result will be more accurate if you get someone to help you and you are measured wearing a non-padded bra.
Step 1 - Bra Size (Underband)
Measuring in centimetres place the tape measure around the rib cage immediately under the bust. The tape should be held quite tightly but should not feel uncomfortable. Refer to the table below which converts your underband measurement into your bra size.
Underband (cm) |
Bra Size |
63 - 67 |
30" |
68 - 72 |
32" |
73 - 77 |
34" |
78 - 82 |
36" |
83 - 87 |
38" |
88 - 92 |
40" |
93 - 97 |
42" |
Again using centimetres, measure around the bust at the fullest part ensuring that the tape is level at the front and back. The tape should be held firmly. Having established your bra size you can now check your cup size.
Step 3 - The two measurements can then be combined to give your size;
Example: Underband measurement = 75cm = Bra size 34
Cup size measurement = 92cm = Cup size C= 34C
