If you have ever bought lingerie that was too large, too small or simply uncomfortable, you will certainly know how important it is to get the measurements right. Well-fitting lingerie is not only comfortable; it’s like a second skin and may even make you look slimmer! At E-lady we believe that every woman deserves to look at her best in the lingerie and that’s why we have created this measuring guide.
WHY?
You don’t really need an answer to this question, do you? Ill-fitting lingerie will squeeze, rub and create unsightly lines under clothing, or will sag and wrinkle. It is particularly important when it comes to bras – wrong one may cause stretching of the skin and weakening of the chest muscles, especially when you’re rather busty. Plus, it’s not sexy, is it?
WHEN?
Avoid measuring after a hearty meal or when you’re very hungry – it may give you the false results. Measuring just before and during a period also not ideal – your breasts may “grow” up to a full size and water retention in the organism will make you bloated and thus bigger. Make sure you have enough time on your hands and that you’re warm and comfortable.
HOW?
Get naked and use soft tape measure. Adopt a natural position, keep tape close to your skin, but avoid pulling and stretching. For more accurate results it is useful to ask someone to help you.
Band Size: Measure under the armpits, high on the back and across the chest above breasts. Make sure the tape lies straight on your back. If you get an uneven number, round it up (if you get 35 inches round the size up to 36).
Cup size: Measure around the widest part of your breasts, holding tape loosely and levelled with the ground. Your cup size is calculated by subtracting band measurement from cup measurement (see table below).
Waist: Measure at the narrowest part of your body, directly above belly button and below the ribs. Relax abdominal muscles and hold tape close to the skin, not too loose and not too tight, starting with “0”. The number on the tape where it meets “0” is your waist size.
Hips: Take a measurement at the widest part, above the buttocks. The tape must be snug but not cutting into your skin. Make sure it’s straight and parallel to the ground. Read the measure at “0”, same as for waist.
Check all the measurement in the tables provided to find you size. Different manufacturers may use slightly different measurements – for your convenience we provide you with measurement tables for all brands we sell; this way you will always find perfect fitting lingerie. If you’re still in doubt, do not hesitate to contact us.
