How to Find Your Perfect Bra Size in India — Complete Guide 2026

Finding the right bra size can be transformative. A well-fitted bra improves posture, comfort, and confidence — yet studies show that over 80% of women are wearing the wrong size. This guide will help you measure accurately at home and find your perfect fit.

What You Need

  • A soft measuring tape
  • A mirror
  • A non-padded or lightly padded bra (or no bra)

Step 1: Measure Your Band Size

Wrap the measuring tape snugly around your ribcage, directly under your bust. Keep it parallel to the floor. Round to the nearest whole number.

  • If the number is even — that is your band size
  • If the number is odd — add 1 to get your band size

Example: If you measure 31 inches, your band size is 32.

Step 2: Measure Your Bust Size

Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest (across your nipples). Keep it parallel to the floor and do not pull too tight.

Step 3: Calculate Your Cup Size

Subtract your band size from your bust measurement. The difference determines your cup size:

  • 0–0.5 inch = AA
  • 1 inch = A
  • 2 inches = B
  • 3 inches = C
  • 4 inches = D
  • 5 inches = DD / E

Indian Bra Size Chart

Indian sizing typically follows the same band + cup system as international sizing. Common sizes available in India range from 28A to 40D. At Veloura Intimate, we stock sizes from 28A to 40D across our full range.

Sister Sizes — When Your Size Isn't Available

Sister sizes share the same cup volume but with a different band. If your size is sold out, try a sister size:

  • 32C → 30D or 34B
  • 34B → 32C or 36A
  • 36C → 34D or 38B

Signs Your Bra Doesn't Fit

  • The band rides up at the back — go down a band size
  • The underwire digs into breast tissue — go up a cup size
  • Straps dig into shoulders — the band is too loose, doing the straps' job
  • Cups wrinkle or gap — go down a cup size
  • Spillage over the top — go up a cup size
