For any girl and woman, the bra is the most important part of the wardrobe. This element of underwear is fully responsible for how your breasts will look under clothing.
What do numbers and letters mean
Bra - the same thing in the wardrobe, the choice of which should be approached with extreme caution. Its appearance will create an impression of you, correcting the upper part of the figure and creating an image. With the current abundance of all sorts of types of these clothes, the eyes diverge, you should go to the store.
However, the most important for him is exactly the size. The bra, acquired in size, can ruin the appearance of the breast, deforming it.
And this is not to mention the fact that it will bring discomfort to the girl. But in it you will be all day.
Therefore, you should carefully examine not only the quality and shape of this element of the toilet, but also especially carefully check its size.
In order not to be mistaken with the size of the bra, you should look at the alphabetic and digital values on it. Usually girls take underwear at random, using the method of selection to find the same size. They do not understand what numbers and letters in size.
And, in fact, everything is very simple. Understanding this will make your life easier and will reduce the cost of underwear that you never wear, because it is not your size.
The numbers in the title indicate chest girth under the breast. The letter part is the size of the bodice calyx. It is these data that will allow you to choose the bust that will sit comfortably on your chest, leaving no pain and no marks on your skin.
Bra and Letter Size Chart
To simplify the search for the desired size, you can use the table, which allows you to easily determine the desired size. In most cases, the labels indicate the standard size, the same for the entire globe.
However, in addition to this table, there are also tables that are used in certain countries (such as China, Italy, etc.). If you buy underwear made in another country not for international trade, you should familiarize yourself with the sizes that are used domestically.
How to determine the size of the bra in numbers and letters
In order to know the exact value, take a centimeter tape. Ask a relative to measure chest circumference. This value will be the same figure. Of course, this can be done independently, but, in this case, it is better to do this in front of the mirror, so that the measuring tape makes an exact circle, grasping this area, without making creases.
To determine the letter of your bodice (fullness of the cup), you need to measure the chest girth with a centimeter tape on the most prominent part of the chest (usually, this place goes through the nipples if you have a standard breast shape). Then you need to subtract the circumference under the breast from the chest girth value and use the table:
It is important to remember that the size of the girl's breasts changes over time. Therefore, it will be useful to measure your breasts once a year to control the size of your underwear.
Examples of contiguous bra sizes
Adjacent sizes are needed to define tighter or looser laundry. Thus, using the table, you can choose the size you need.
- To use the table correctly, choose your size from the leftmost column.
- If you prefer more free underwear, then you should choose the right column.
- If you prefer underwear that emphasizes the figure, then your column is central.
Bra sizes by country
As mentioned earlier, some countries use their own labeling for their market. In order to properly buy clothes abroad, it is worthwhile to study this phenomenon and be able to use other people's tables. So you will save yourself from a failed purchase.
To determine the size, you will need to measure the size under the breast. The sizes of cups, the benefit, in all countries identical.
We should also mention the Chinese sizes. For the girls of the Middle Kingdom is characterized by a small chest, so carefully look at the sizes in each proposed store, compare them with your measurements. This will save you from buying malomerki, which are characteristic of China.
Bra sizes on Aliexpress: table of conformity
Often girls buy clothes through the website Aliexpress. This allows you to buy unusual and beautiful clothes at a low price. However, you can often find negative comments in reviews, saying that the laundry turned out to be more or less than the stated size.
Here, again, it is worth noting that Aliexpress, most often, the sizes of linen are Chinese, which means their small size. Therefore, courteous friends of the Far East indicate additional size tables.
Recommendations for choosing the perfect bra
To find the perfect size, you need to consider several factors.
For starters, you should not buy this type of clothing in a hurry. If you are in a hurry somewhere, it is better to postpone the purchase until the next time. Thus, you will save yourself from an error, because of which then you have to suffer or lay out more money for a replacement.
Be sure to try on as many bras as possible. If you feel discomfort, then this option should be immediately abandoned.
The bodice is not a shoe, it does not spread. But it will be with great pleasure to bring you discomfort, throwing the chest out of the cups or sticking into the skin (especially if it has bones).
For accurate selection of size and shape, it is better to move a little hands. This way you can make sure that the chest is firmly fixed.
Do not hesitate, jump in the fitting room to make sure that the chest does not fall out. Walk around a bit, put on some clothes and try to walk around the store in the new lingerie as you usually walk around the city.
If you buy a bra with underwire, be sure to check that they do not look anywhere, and the place of their joint is tightly closed with a durable fabric. Otherwise, they may crawl out and irritate your skin, leaving scratches, sometimes up to blood.
Decide on the appointment of a bra.
Each type of pastime is characterized by its own type. Its main function, color, decoration, the presence or absence of pits, etc. will depend on it.
Consequences of choosing the wrong bra
Every girl has come across the wrong bra at least once. Most often this is a bra, bought in a store with low-quality goods or made poorly. The consequences of wearing such underwear, of course, will not kill you, but there are a number of problems that you may encounter.
First, it is a clear discomfort. A bra, not bought in size, will either hang out on the body, or stick into the skin, leaving red bands and sometimes rubbing the skin down to blood and irritation. Plus, the breasts in such a bust will look ridiculous.
It will either disappear in cups, as if it has sunk into two huge wells, or it will bulge out like a balloon in its hands. Both that and another looks ridiculous and does not add beauty to the girl.
Secondly, an incorrectly made model can deform the shape of the breast, because of which it will be either triangular, or, conversely, diverging in different directions, like the iris of the eye with a squint. Or the breast will have such a shape, as if it was squeezed with a vice, leaving between the breasts not a beautiful and sexy hollow that attracts men's gaze, but a real huge and deep fold.
Thirdly, you should pay attention to the decoration of the bodice. The lace should not bulge much, because it will peek through the clothes. All sorts of rhinestones and pendants, of course, look beautiful, but only on festive linen, where its light bleed is acceptable. In other cases, it will look under the clothes, like huge boils that stretch the fabric.
It is also worth paying attention to the fabric from which the bodice is made. First of all, it should be understood that the cheap bodice will be made of cheap cotton. This fabric is quickly soaked with sweat, because of which it starts to smell bad, and it will also rub the skin, creating discomfort and leaving behind irritation.
The choice of synthetic fabrics should be treated with caution, because it can cause an allergic reaction. If you have sensitive skin, it is better to give preference to natural fabrics, with an admixture of synthetic, and not vice versa.
Also, depending on the time of year, it is necessary to select the appropriate fabric in order to warm the delicate skin of the breast in winter and prevent it from sweating in the summer (to prevent the appearance of prickly heat). Straps of the bodice should be made of elastic material, adjusted with the slider.
It is better to look at how the slider is made. It should be smooth, light, should not dig into the skin of the shoulders and back.
