To get the most accurate top bust measurement, measure with a well fitting bra on, an underwire can be the best here as it gives you the most lift, but must not have any padding or foam. So with this comfortable and well fitting bra (as you own), and standing on even surface, measure you top-bust. 

I have allowed for ease (space to breath) in the designs, so you don't need to allow for a relaxed fit. Just get the accurate measurement of your chest. 

1. UNDER-BUST

Your UNDER-BUST is where the band of your bra fits around your ribcage.

This is the number part of a bra size, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 (= band size)

2. OVER-BUST

Your OVER-BUST measurement is the fullness of your breasts.

This is the LETTER part of a bra size, A, B, C, D, E, F, G (= cup size) 

Calculate Your Bra Size

Finding your ECO INTIMATES Bra size is super simple! We design our Bras around CUP sizes, so once you know what cups size you are you only need your under-bust measurement when choosing your size.

UNDER-BUST You want to get the a snug fit with your measuring tape, as our fabrics are stretchy and sizing is based off your actual true measurement here.

OVER-BUST When measuring your over-bust you are looking for the fullest part of your bust when you are wearing a bra. For some this is nipple level, and for others is lower. Just measure a few spots to see which is the most full. 

Once you have these 2 measurements, write them down so you can't forget! 

In this chart below, find your under-bust measurement (first 2 rows) and in the bottom row you will find your equivalent size. This BAND SIZE is the size you will be wearing in many of my pieces. TIP: If you are on the tail end of any size and like a relaxed fit, go up a size.

WORK OUT YOUR CUP SIZE
(THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR UNDER-BUST & OVER-BUST)

With your OVER-BUST measurement, minus your under-bust measurement, will give you a number that is used to calculate your CUP size. 

With these 2 measurements, minus your UNDER-BUST from your OVER-BUST. You will then have a number that is the difference amount between the two - and this amount shows your cup size.

CENTIMETERS 3-5 6-7 8-10 11-13 14-16 17-19 20-22
INCHES 1-2.5 2.5-3.5 3.5-4.5 4.5-5.5 5.5-6.5 6.5-7.5 7.5-8.5
= YOUR ECO CUP SIZE B C D DD E F

 

EXAMPLE

UNDER-BUST: 72cm  OVER-BUST 84cm 84 - 72 = 12

The difference is 12cm Choose size 10DD

Simple

2 Measurements

For all our Crops, Bralettes and Bra styles you only need 2 measurements: your UNDER-BUST and OVER-BUST and all you need is a tape measure to calculate these.
