buying a bodas bra

Our simple guide for self-measuring will help you work out your correct bra size in 3 easy steps.
If you don't like the fit of your bra when it arrives, simply return it to us and we'll either send you a replacement in a different size or style, or give you a credit note, or a refund. You choose.

how to find your correct bra size

You need two simple measurements:

1. Underbust - Measure your bust in inches to determine your back size, eg. 32, 34, 36 or 38
          (i.e. The band measurement of your bra).
2. Overbust - Measure the full part of your bust.
3. Now enter both measurements into our size finder below to find your Bodas size.

In general, your cup size can be calculated by subtracting your Underbust measurement from your Overbust measurement:

the importance of fit

Any problems with fitting a bra can easily be solved by changing either the band size or the cup size, or both. Many women wear bras with the band too loose and the cup too small. In general, we suggest that if in doubt, you take a cup larger than you would normally. At Bodas we do everything possible to ensure consistent sizing, however, please note that size and fit will vary slightly between underwear styles and fabrics.

The most common problems with bra fitting, and how to resolve them:
1. If the breasts are bulging over the bra - go up a cup size.
2. If the bra rides up at the back - go down a band size.
3. If the straps are digging into your shoulders (the straps are having to do all the work because although the cup might fit, the band is not tight enough) - go down a band size and up a cup size (this will give you a tighter fit around the body, with the same cup size as previously).
4. If the front of the bra does not sit flat against your chest - go down a band size and you may need to go up a cup size.
