Welcome to our bra fitting page.
Manufacturers vary in their sizings widely and sadly not every 32AA will be the same as another 32AA. The difference between our 32AA Amourette by Triumph and our 32AA in our Nika bra is pretty big! I have tried to indicate were possible which bras come up big and which come up small. Please use this page as a guide only. Even the information I found concerning fitting was conflicting so I have gathered together some general stats which I hope will be useful. Trial and error seems to be the best way unfortunately. Do you have a good fitting bra already?, that's a good place to start.
According to research 70% of women wear the wrong size bra.
Bra Fitting:
Back Size Guide
You need 2 measurements for this, your back size represented by a number and your cup size represented by a letter.
It's easier to measure your back in centimetres and then convert it. Still wearing your bra, measure underneath your breasts. Pull the tape measure as tight as your bra strap would be. It should feel really snug but not tight.

Cup Size Guide
Your cup size is trickier, measure yourself in inches around the fullest part of your breasts making sure the tape measure is straight accross your back. If your back measurement is the same, ie you're a 32" back (after you've worked it out from cm's from the chart above) and you're measuring a 32" around the fullest part you are an A cup. If you are up to 1" less, you are an AA cup and even less you need an AAA cup.
