HOW TO MEASURE

It's best to measure yourself while wearing tight fitting clothing or nothing.

The tape measure should be snug but not cutting into your body.

Make sure the tape measure is level with the ground all the way around.

BUST: Measure all the way around your body at the fullest part of your bust (usually over the nipples).

UNDERBUST: Measure all the way around your body at the top of your ribcage - just underneath the bust.

WAIST: Measure all the way around your body at the smallest part of your waist.

HIPS: Stand with your feet together and measure all the way around your body at the fullest part of your hips (usually just below the hip bones at the top of the buttocks).

NICO BRAS

TRIANGLE STYLES:

	UNDERBUST	BUST
XS	63-67cm	74-79cm
S	68-72cm	80-85cm
M	72-77cm	86-91cm
L	78-82cm	92-97cm

FULL CUP/UNDERWIRE STYLES:

First measure your underbust - this will give you your band size.

Band Size:

UNDERBUST	BAND SIZE
63-67cm	6
68-72cm	8
73-77cm	10
78-82cm	12
83-87cm	14

Now measure your bust. Subtract your underbust measurement from your bust measurement. The difference will give you your cup size.

Cup Size:

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UNDERBUST & BUST MEASUREMENTS	CUP SIZE
10.5-13cm	A
13-15.5cm	B
15.5-18cm	C
18-20.5cm	D
20.5-23cm	DD

Bra sizing is about the difference in size between the band (the number) and the cup (the letter). The two are relative! That's why cup sizes vary on different size bands. For example the cup volume of a 10B is bigger than the cup volume of an 8B.

When you change just the cup size, it won't affect your band size. However when you change band sizes, the cup size changes slightly too. So you may find that when you go up a band size, you may have to go down a cup size and visa versa.

This also explains what is sometimes called 'sister sizes'. Basically, each bra size has two sister sizes that are very similar in size:

Bra Size	Sister Size 1	Sister Size 2
8A/Small	6B	10AA
8B/Small	6C	10A
8C/Medium	6D	10B
10B/Medium	8C	12A
10C/Medium	8D	12B
10D/Large	8DD	12C
12C/Large	10D	14B
12D/Large	10DD	14C
14C	12D	16B
14D	12DD	16C
14DD	12E	16D

While every body is different, lots of people find they can fit bras within the sister range.
