The idea that being professionally measured is the only way to get a good fitting bra is misleading. Follow our Tips to ensure a great fit and you can tell for yourself if the fit is right just by how it feels.

Take this second measurement minus the first measurement and use the difference in centimetres to find your cup size from the table below. The strap around your body should be firm yet comfortable. The band should be level all the way around.
