Understanding Bra Measurement in India

Finding the right bra size is crucial for comfort, support, and overall breast health. In India, bra sizing generally follows a system similar to the UK/US, but with some nuances in measurement and fit preferences. Many women wear the wrong bra size, leading to discomfort, poor posture, and even health issues.

Why Accurate Measurement Matters

• Comfort: A well-fitting bra prevents digging straps, gaping cups, and a band that rides up.
• Support: Proper support reduces strain on your back and shoulders, especially for larger busts.
• Appearance: The right bra enhances your silhouette and makes clothes fit better.
• Breast Health: Good support can help prevent ligament stretching and discomfort.

How to Measure Yourself Correctly

You'll need a soft measuring tape and ideally, a non-padded bra that fits well (or no bra at all).

1. Underbust Measurement (Band Size):
   • Stand upright and exhale fully.
   • Wrap the measuring tape snugly around your rib cage, directly under your bust. Ensure the tape is level all around your back.
   • Read the measurement in inches. This is your underbust measurement.
2. Bust Measurement (Cup Size):
   • Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust (usually across the nipples).
   • Make sure the tape is level and not too tight or too loose.
   • Read the measurement in inches. This is your bust measurement.

Calculating Your Indian Bra Size

Our calculator uses these two measurements to determine your estimated bra size. Here's how the calculation generally works for Indian sizing:

1. Band Size Calculation:

• Take your underbust measurement.
• Round it to the nearest whole number.
• If the rounded number is even, add 4 inches. If it's odd, add 5 inches. This gives you your band size (e.g., 30, 32, 34).
• Example: If your underbust is 30.5 inches, it rounds to 31 (odd). Add 5, making your band size 36. If your underbust is 30 inches (even), add 4, making your band size 34.

2. Cup Size Calculation:

• Subtract your calculated band size from your bust measurement.
• The difference in inches corresponds to your cup size:
  • Less than 1 inch: AA
  • 1 inch: A
  • 2 inches: B
  • 3 inches: C
  • 4 inches: D
  • 5 inches: DD/E
  • 6 inches: DDD/F
  • And so on, with each additional inch typically corresponding to the next cup size.
• Example: If your bust is 38 inches and your calculated band size is 36 inches, the difference is 2 inches, which corresponds to a 'B' cup. Your estimated size would be 36B.

Important Considerations for Indian Bra Sizing

• Brand Variation: Bra sizes are not universally standardized. A 34B from one brand might fit differently than a 34B from another.
• Sister Sizes: If your calculated size doesn't feel quite right, you might try "sister sizes." For example, if you're a 34C, your sister sizes are 36B (looser band, smaller cup) or 32D (tighter band, larger cup).
• Professional Fitting: While this calculator provides a great starting point, nothing beats a professional bra fitting. Many lingerie stores in India offer this service.
• Body Changes: Your bra size can change due to weight fluctuations, pregnancy, hormonal changes, or age. Re-measure yourself periodically.
