Sister sizes (same cup volume): 70C and 80A in EU sizing. Band rounded to 5 cm, cup from the difference (EN 13402-3).

How the size is computed

The band is your underbust rounded to the nearest 5 cm (EN 13402-3). The cup comes from the difference between bust and underbust: AA for 10 to 12 cm, then one letter for every 2 cm more.

Other systems follow from the EU size: French bands are 15 more, Italian bands count from 0, UK and US bands are in inches, Australian bands are the UK band minus 22. Cup letters split differently after D: UK goes DD, E, F, FF; US goes DD, DDD, G.

Sister sizes keep the same cup volume: one band down and one cup up, or one band up and one cup down. This is the calculation Find my size runs in Ruban Size on bra charts.

How to measure

  1. Underbust

    Tape snug and level right under the bust, breathing out.

  2. Bust

    Tape level across the fullest point, not pulled tight, wearing a bra without padding.

  3. Read both in cm

    Or in inches: the calculator switches units for you.

Questions

Why do UK and US cups differ after D?

Both start AA, A, B, C, D. Then UK sizes go DD, E, F, FF, G while US sizes go DD, DDD, G. The same cup can carry two letters.

What are sister sizes?

Sizes with the same cup volume on a different band: 75C has 70D and 80B as sisters. Useful when a band feels too tight or too loose.

Should the band feel tight?

Snug: the band carries most of the support. If it rides up at the back, it is too loose; try the sister size with a smaller band.

Does this work for sports or maternity bras?

Sports bras are often sized S, M, L from the same two measurements, as in the sports bra template of Ruban Size. Maternity and nursing bras: measure again as your size changes.
