Correctly matched bra not onlythe most beneficial way to emphasize what you are awarded by nature, but also prevent health problems that can arise from wearing uncomfortable underwear. How to determine your bra sizeto select the model you want?







Studies have shown that many womenchoose a bra of the wrong size. So, women with big breasts often tend to choose too small lyfichki, and women with small breasts - on the contrary, too large. Wrong bra size can be the cause of health problems, so it is very important to choose the right size underwear.



The size of the bra is marked numbers and Latin letter, for example, 80 C. In this case, 80 is actually the size of the bra, depending on the girth under the chest. And the letter C denotes completeness (the size of a cup of a bra). The size of the cup depends on the difference between the breast volume and the girth under the breast.



When measuring the girth under the breast, a centimeter tape should fit snugly. To find out what size corresponds to your girth under the chest, you can learn from the following table.

Also for choosing a bra is important cup size. As we have already said, it is determined by the differencebetween the volume of the chest and the girth under the breast. The chest circumference should be measured by putting on a perfectly fitting bra (without push-up, foam rubber, etc.). The centimeter tape should pass horizontally and freely adjoin the protruding points of the chest, without tightening too tightly.



Subtracting the girth of the chest girth under the chest, you will be able to determine the size of the cup. Usually cups of bras are marked with Latin letters from A to H (AA and DD markings are also found). For convenience, we presented the cup sizes in the form of a table.

But keep in mind that it is not enough to know your bra size. Even if the size of the underwear you seem to fit, you can not buy it without trying on: every woman's breast shape is individual, and even a bra of the right size can sit ugly or be uncomfortable.





Correctly matched bra should not squeeze the chest either on the sides or in the decollete. The tape under the breast should not crash into the skin too much, the same applies to the straps and bones.



Wearing a bra, pay attention to position of the most protruding points of the breast: they should be exactly in the middle between the waist and shoulder line. If they are biased above or below, such a bra will not work for you.



And, of course, the bra should show your breasts in the most favorable light: wide-set breasts - slightly to pull to the center, low - to lift, too heavy - to support. But you can not sacrifice comfort for the sake of beauty!


Bra size: how to determine?




As you can see, determine the size of the braquite simply. But this is only an approximate guide, which will help you weed out deliberately inappropriate clothes. If you want to choose a good bra - you will have to spend a lot of time in the dressing room, but the result is worth it!!
