Measure your bust

Measure your waist
Place the tape measure around your natural waistline, generally the narrowest part of the torso.
Measure your hips
Place the tape measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.

Choosing by product type
Full-coverage bras
The cup should fully encase the breast without spilling over or leaving gaps.
Minimizing bras
Choose your usual size. The cup should distribute the bust comfortably without compressing it.
Molded and spacer bras
The cup should mold to the breast without folds, gaps, or spillage.
Wire-free bras
The band should remain horizontal and provide stable support without constriction.
Sports bras
Choose the size that holds the bust close to the body while allowing you to breathe freely.
Post-mastectomy bras
Check the cup size, pocket placement, and band fit according to the prosthesis being worn.
Panties and shapewear
Choose your size based on your fullest measurement. Do not size down to increase the sculpting effect.
Loungewear and sleepwear
Use the corresponding clothing size and your waist and hip measurements for a comfortable fit.
How to recognize a good fit
The band
It remains horizontal, stable, and comfortable without riding up the back.
The cups
The bust is fully encased without spillage, wrinkles, or gaps.
The straps
They stay comfortable without sliding or leaving deep marks on the shoulders.
The center gore and underwires
The center gore rests against the sternum, and the underwires surround the breast without pressing into it.
