The Cm To Cup Size Calculator helps determine bra cup size based on the difference between bust and band measurements. This tool is useful for women looking for a perfect fit, as an accurate bra size improves comfort and support.
Formula
The formula for calculating cup size is:
C = B - A
Where:
- C = Cup Size
- B = Bust measurement in cm
- A = Band measurement in cm
How to Use
- Measure your bust size (fullest part of your chest).
- Measure your band size (underbust measurement).
- Enter both values into the calculator.
- Click "Calculate" to get your cup size.
Example
If your bust size is 90 cm and your band size is 80 cm:
C = 90 - 80 = 10 cm
According to the standard chart, a 10 cm difference equals a D cup size.
