What bra size am I?

[Attraversiamo]

I measured myself the other day and it came out at 30inch for under my bust and 33inches for across it. According to an online calculator I should be wearing a 32C (I was wearing a 30D, but have gained some weight recently). The 32C is quite tight though around the band, should I be wearing a different size?

Thanks

30C would be the starting point.

Was the Overbust measurement taken bending over?

If you scoop breast tissue into your existing bra do you get overspill?

Is that not smaller than a 30D or 32C? Both are too tight

No I just took the measurement across the way, they don't overspill either but the cup doesn't cover all of my boobs at the side though

thebetterbracampaign.blogspot.co.uk/p/fitting-advice.html?m=1 -measure according to this guide

sounds like the cup isn't big enough. what bra did you buy?

Try the bending measurement described in the link, it makes a huge difference for some people

Aw ok, it was one I bought from ASDA. I can't take another day of it riding up/hurting me so I'm going to go and get a cheap one tonight to see if it fits and is comfortable for tomorrow (hopefully!)

If its riding up then that suggests the back size is too big.

It sounds to me like you need a bigger cup than you measure. Try a 30D/DD.

Yup, riding up is definitely too big, you need to try a 30 and, if the 32C is tight probably a DD at least
