    I wear 34b the calculator is telling me 32c, think I'll try some of those even though I really don't see myself as a C cup...the ones I'm wearing aren't too great a fit. so maybe?!

    According to this I'm in the wrong size.
    I wear 38D and it reckons 36DD.
    Will experiment when next in town.

    Thanks

    I always buy my bras and panties at Lane Bryant/Cacique. They carry a good assortment of sizes and associates are taught to size people properly.

    I have boycotted Victoria Secret stores for a long time (been in one, once in 10 yrs). Ever since I went in for an employment app and manager said she'd check if she had any, came back saying she was out, and a thin girl came in right behind me and she gave her one...right in front of me....

    Thanks for the link, I got sized incorrectly last year by a lady that was too much in a hurry. She measured my rib cage and above the fullest part of my boobs rather than across the fullest part and gave me several bras to try on, I bought 1 and while the band worked the cups were too big. Hope this will help.

    Thanks for this link! I ordered a tape measure the other day, just waiting for it to come in the mail and I will post back about the size it tells me. Right now I wear a 42G and that was measured at Dillard's. I hate this size I can't wait until my number goes down because all I can find are frumpy bras and I hate it. The ones I am wearing now the side comes up really high and pokes me in my armpit and is so uncomfortable and the bra I got at Dillards cost $70!! Probably around August I feel like I will have lost enough to change my bra size and will go to Nordstroms, but for now I will do it myself :)

    This site would have be over fill and have double boobs. No way am I going to try and cram into a C cup bra. I will stick to my DDD's and not worry about double boob,.

    Been wearing a 38E and just measured and I am a 38DD, so my estimated size was not far off.

    Thanks so much for that information, I was also a 38dd when my sister came to Visit from London, I accidently put on her bra.

    (She said "I was trying to steal it" lol) It was a 36ddd and wow I had the girl's up where they were supposed to be and they felt

    wonderful and secure . We then went to Dillards in Va Beach where I was fitted by a professional and I've been happy ever since !

    :love:

    According to this, I'm a 32B instead of a 34A. I like the sound of 32B better! I'll have to go bra shopping and see how a 32B fits!

    I have to say I have one VS bra, in a size 36D, and I HATE IT. It has stupid padding underneath and makes the girls look bizarre, plus the straps always slide. $55 for that mess!

    I always bought 36D bras, and always hooked them in the tightest hook. Since losing 15 lbs, the girls have, shrunk a bit, and since lifting heavy, the underbust measurement has gone up a bit. I just bought a bunch of new bras in 38C that fit well (so I think). I never like those push-ups or demis, I like a full-coverage so I don't spill out the top.

    SOOOOO, I put the underbust measurement of 29 and the full bust measurement of 35, and this site said 30DDD. what? is there such a size?

    I tried 30 as the underbust measurement and it gave me 32D.

    32???? I hate that bulgy look under the arms if the band is too tight; hmmm. I'm curious how this will make me look on the sides.

    But I will go try on some 32Ds and see on Monday, but I have never heard of 30DDD.

    not sure about it's sizing... I'm definitely not a D cup, my girls swim in a C cup!

    This. Thank you for posting, I wanted to know too!

    Yay thanks! Had no idea my underbust was only 32. VS had me in as a 36DD... Guess I'm a 32DDD! I hope they shrink!

    Where to buy something like that?

    umm i may try this size on just to see but I don't think i'm a 34d just yet i'm wearing a 36 d and my boobs are falling out of it. id be pretty depressed if i was this cup right now as i've still got a fair bit of weight to lose and have always had big boobs! I guess i'll have to live with it it's not the end of the world!

    I've been wearing a 38D rather comfortably and this puts me at a 36DDD... I tried on some 36s a few weeks ago and found them chafy. Maybe with the bigger cup size? Will have to try next time I'm at the mall.

    If this is right, I'm back down to a 36C. I haven't been that in about 4 years and it's been my goal to get back down to that (I was up to a 36DD in 2009).

    I love, love, love Lane Bryant bras - they are the only ones that properly fit me (and I have tried EVERYWHERE - even Nordies). My girls have always been big, so after ~20 years they point down and out - it takes a miracle to hold them where they belong. So far only the LB Balconette bras really do the trick. I know lots of ladies that won't wear anything else.

    This is my second time on the weight loss trek. I went from a size 22 to an 8 a couple of years ago (now back to a 14 - going on 16 if I don't get it in gear), but one of the only drawbacks to losing the weight was that my band size almost got too small for LB. One more size and the Cacique bras wouldn't have fit me anymore - I already had to order them from the website b/c they didn't have the smaller band sizes in store (they don't go below 36). I was sweating bullets!!

    Vic's secret sucked for me. They put me in styrafoam cups that stuck out like card board, and a thin band so my fat lapped over! Oh it was a mess. My MAIN concern with a bra is that THE STRAPS DON'T FALL DOWN!!! How I long for a bra that fits. !

    If this thread has taught me one thing it is to avoid the Victoria Secrets store due to open in Westfield Stratford.

    Just ordered some new bras from Figleaves.com and they have a 20% off promotion on all bras, just type TWENTY in the promotion box and it recalculates the price for you :bigsmile:
