Underbust Measurement _____________

Step 2: Upper Bust Measurement to Verify
Bra Band Size Hold the tape snugly above the bust under the arms.
Note the measurement in inches. This measurement should equal your bra
band size calculation without adding inches; however, if the measurement
is an odd number add an inch. Note: Larger measurement=broad back, Smaller
measurement=small back.
Upper Bust (no inches added) = Lower Bust (with
inches)= Band Size
Step 3: Full Bust to Determine Bra Cup Size
Hold the tape loosely around the fullest part of the bust. Do not let the
tape droop in the back . Use assistance when finding your bra cup size or
the help of a mirror. Subtract the bra band size from this measurement
(Step 3 - Step 1).
