It is always a question for us to know what my bra size is... What are the available ones, and what is perfect for me?

There are many bra sizes available, which start from A to L and also from 26 to 58. What you need to figure out is which one is suitable for me and how to find the right one.

An A Bra Size—It is the smallest cup size, ideal for women with a 1-inch difference between the band and bust measurements.

B Bra Size – Slightly fuller than A cups, B cup bras are designed for women with a 2-inch difference between band and bust.

C Bra Size – A common size offering balanced support and shape, suitable for a 3-inch difference.

D Bra Size – Fuller bust size with a 4-inch difference, offering more support and coverage.

DD Bra Size – Also known as E in some brands, DD is for a 5-inch difference and offers enhanced support.

E Bra Size – Equivalent to DD in most cases, ideal for those with a 5-6 inch difference between band and bust.

F Bra Size – Fuller bust with a 6-7 inch difference requires specialized support and wide straps.

G Bra Size – One of the larger sizes, designed for a 7-8 inch difference, offering maximum support and comfort.

Next is to find the one right one. For that you can use the help of a bra size calculator

Part of Bra	Fit Check
Straps	The straps should rest comfortably on your shoulders without digging in or slipping off. If they dig in, they may be too tight, or the band may be too loose.
Slider	The slider is used to adjust the strap length. Ensure that it is positioned so that the straps provide lift without causing discomfort.
Upper Cup	The upper cup should sit smoothly against your breast without any gaping or digging in. Gaping means the cup might be too large; spillage indicates it’s too small.
Apex	The apex, where the straps meet the cups, should lie flat against your skin without pulling or puckering.
Center Gore	The center gore should lie flat against your sternum. If it lifts away, the cups might be too small or the band too loose.
Side Seam	The side seams should sit comfortably along your torso without twisting or digging in.
Cup Side	The cup side should fully encase your breast tissue without any spillage on the sides or under the arms.
Underwire	The underwire should sit comfortably around the base of your breast without digging into your skin or sitting on top of breast tissue.
Cup Seam	The cup seam should not create discomfort or visible lines under clothing and should help shape the breast naturally.
Under Cup	The undercup should provide support, especially for fuller breasts, ensuring the breast tissue is fully encased without spillage.
Underband	The underband should sit level around your torso, parallel to the ground, and be snug enough to provide support without digging in.
Wing	The wing should lie flat against your sides without bulging or causing discomfort, providing smooth support along the torso.
Back	The back of the bra should sit level with the front and not ride up. If it does, the band is too loose, and a smaller band size may be needed.
Ring	The ring where the straps attach to the bra should be secure and not cause irritation or dig into the skin.
Hook & Eye	The hook & eye closure should be fastened on the loosest hook when new, allowing for tightening as the bra stretches over time.
Raised Edges	Raised edges, especially along the wings or band, should lie flat and not create bulges or discomfort.
