Women's Size Guide

Your breasts should be completely enclosed in the cups with a smooth line. There should be no bulging over the cup or baggy cups.

If you're wearing a wired bra, the underwire should sit flat against your ribcage to your armpit and the wire to the centre should sit flat against your chest.

If your back band is rising up this means it's too big and isn't giving you the correct support. Put your fingers under the band and pull it away from you, it should not stretch more than 4cm / 2 inches.

Solution: Try a smaller back band size (up a cup size too) until the band sits horizontally around your body and fits firmly.

When your bra is fastenend on the middle hook and eye and it doesn't feel comfortable or digs in, your band size is too small.

Solution: Try a bigger back band until it sits comfortably and firmly around your body.

The back band and cups should give you 80% of support, so if the straps are digging in this is a sign your bra isn't fitting correctly. Your shoulders are taking most of the support so your back band could be too big.

Solution: Try a smaller back band size and a bigger cup size, making sure your straps aren't tightened too much.

Your straps should sit comfortably on your shoulders when you have the correct band and cup size.
