UK Bra Size Calculator – Calculate Your Cup Size & Band Size
Use our UK Bra Size Calculator to calculate your starting bra size from your underbust and bust measurements. This calculator uses the traditional UK fitting method and gives you a practical starting point before you fine-tune fit by trying bras on.
Once you have your result, you can compare brands using our Bra Size Converter, check fit using our Bra Fitting Advice, and explore the full sequence in our UK Bra Cup Size Chart.
You can also compare sizes in popular UK brands such as Freya, Fantasie, Elomi, Panache and more.
How to Calculate Your Bra Size
To calculate your bra size, measure your underbust and your fullest bust. The calculator uses your underbust measurement to estimate your band size, then compares your bust measurement to that band size to work out your cup size.
- 1 inch difference = A cup
- 2 inch difference = B cup
- 3 inch difference = C cup
- 4 inch difference = D cup
- 5 inch difference = DD cup
- 6 inch difference = E cup
- 7 inch difference = F cup
- 8 inch difference = FF cup
- 9 inch difference = G cup
- 10 inch difference = GG cup
If you want to understand how cup sizes progress beyond this, see our Double Cup Bra Sizes Explained guide and our UK Bra Cup Size Chart.
How to Use the Bra Size Calculator
- Select your underbust measurement: Choose the size closest to your underbust from the dropdown.
- Select your bust measurement: Pick the size closest to your fullest bust measurement.
- Click Calculate: The calculator will show your UK band and cup size.
- Use the result as a starting point: Bra sizing is only a guide, so the final fit should always be adjusted by how the bra feels when worn.
After calculating your size, you can compare brands with our Bra Size Converter and troubleshoot fit issues in our Bra Fitting Advice.
This bra size calculator gives you a starting size based on traditional UK fitting measurements. The best fit is always confirmed by how the bra feels when worn.
If the band rides up, try a smaller band size. If the cups feel too tight or too loose, adjust the cup size accordingly. Small changes can make a big difference to comfort and support.
