Finding the perfect fit with the right lingerie size guide is the key to feeling confident and comfortable this Valentine’s Day. The day’s celebration comes with a package of excitement. It’s a day of showing love, no matter what the name tag of that relationship is. With the waves of love, romance and happiness, what we girls need is the perfect outfit for this day. Whether you are hanging out with your girlfriends, partner, fiancée, or husband, Valentine's outing should be all about confidence and comfort. The outfit should shine; to complement that, you need the perfect lingerie size guide to find the right fit.
Lingerie fitting is something we all tend to find confusing. More often, we end up buying the wrong size—either the bra doesn’t fit the bust area, the underbust feels too tight, or the cup size is incorrect. To make your lingerie shopping easier, we’ve put together a how-to- measure guide to help you find the perfect fit with an accurate lingerie size guide.
Understanding Your Lingerie Size
How to Measure Bra Size
How to Measure Band Size?
Use a measuring tape and measure around your ribcage, just under your bust area. Make sure the tape is snug but not too tight. Round it to the nearest whole number and if it is an even number add 4 inches or if it is an odd number add 5 inches to get your band size.
How to Measure Bust Size?
Now, move the tape up and measure around the fullest part of your bust. Make sure to measure evenly around your chest. These two measurements will help determine your correct cup size.
How to Calculate Cup Size?
Subtract your band size from your bust size—the difference in inches determines your cup size:
- 0-1 inch = AA cup
- 1-2 inches = A cup
- 2-3 inches = B cup (and so on).
Now, it’s time to check your size chart. Your exact bra size depends on your underbust band measurement and cup size.
E.g., If the bust is 34 inches and the band is 32 inches then 34-32= 2, Means the bra size is 34B.

If you're between sizes, this lingerie Size Guide Might Help:

3. How often should I replace my bras?
