1. How Do I Find My Correct Lingerie Size?
Finding the right size is crucial for comfort and support. Hereโs how you can measure yourself at home:
- Bras: Use a measuring tape to measure around your ribcage, just under your bust, to find your band size. Measure around the fullest part of your bust for your cup size. Use a bra size calculator or refer to a size chart to determine your size. Both of these are available on our website.
- Panties: Measure around your hips at the widest point and refer to size charts for the best fit.
- Bodysuits and other lingerie: Follow the measurements for both bust and hips, and refer to the size guide provided by the brand.
