Fortunately, a professional bra fitter named Nicola Crook took to TikTok to reveal the very easy method that anyone can use to find out their correct bra size at home.
In the video, she can be seen holding a padded bra and starting: “When it comes to measuring bra sizes, you can measure in a top like this, or something ideal like this … never something like that , which is a shaped style. “
She continues: “You are going to take two measurements – the first measure you want to take is around your rib cage, right under your bust.”
So my size here is 29 inches – and then you want to take the size around the fullest part of your bust. “
You may need someone to help you with this – and mine is 35. ”
You take that measurement as straight as you can. “

She goes on to explain that once you have those two measurements you take away the 35 of the 29 that give you 6in.
“So to work out the cup size – I’ll put up a graph below – but it’s A, B, C, D, DD, E or DDD if you’re from the US,” she continues.
“So I would start with a 30DDD or E and I would see how they fit and how it works from there.”
The post has since garnered an impressive 351,000 views and has been flooded with comments from grateful women.
“Thank you for this. I need new ones while on the weight loss journey for the surgery,” said one enthusiastically.
A second praised: “Best video yet, slow and informative, do not let you guess.”
A third wrote: “OMG Every time I tell a woman this is the right way to measure, she tells me I’m crazy. Pay attention ladies.”
Another wrote, “This is helpful, thank you.”
Meanwhile, a further added: “Thank you girlly.”
And another social media user remarked, “I desperately need it … thank you.”
