How to Measure

Your Body, Your Story, Your Linsori

How to Measure

Four measurements, five minutes, a soft tape. Measured right, every chart on this site works perfectly. All measurements in centimetres.

Before You Start

Set Up for Accuracy

Measure in a non-padded bra or none at all, standing naturally in front of a mirror. Keep the tape level with the floor, snug against the body but never digging in. Breathe normally — a held breath changes your band size. A second pair of hands helps; measuring alone, use the mirror to check the tape sits level at the back.

No measuring tape? Wrap a phone-charger cable or string around the point, mark it with your finger, and lay it against a ruler.

The Four Measurements

Where the Tape Goes

1

Bust

Around the fullest part of the bust, tape level front and back. This sets your cup and your size in chemises, babydolls, and sets.

2

Underbust

Directly beneath the bust, where a band sits — snug and level around the ribcage. This is your band size.

3

Waist

The narrowest point of your natural waistline, usually a little above the navel. Decides briefs, corsetry, and high-waisted fits.

4

Hips

Feet together, tape around the fullest part of hips and seat — roughly 20 cm below the waist. The key measurement for briefs, bodysuits, and hosiery.

Bra Fitting

From Numbers to Bra Size

Two steps. Your underbust gives the band; the difference between bust and underbust gives the cup.

Step one — band

Underbust (cm) Band
63–67 30
68–72 32
73–77 34
78–82 36
83–87 38
88–92 40

Step two — cup

Bust minus underbust (cm) Cup
10–12 A
12–14 B
14–16 C
16–18 D
18–20 DD
20–22 E
22–24 F
24–26 FF
26–28 G
28–30 GG

Example: underbust 74, bust 91 — a difference of 17 — makes you a 34D.

The fit check. A band should sit level and firm on the loosest hook — you tighten hooks as the band relaxes with age. Cups should hold everything without gaping or spilling; the centre panel should rest flat against the breastbone.
