  • What is a bra "sister size"?

    If you've measured meticulously, shopped for your breast shape and your bra still isn't fitting perfectly, you might need to shift your sizing a bit. "A sister size refers to a bra size that has the same cup capacity with a different band size," says Seymour. "You should opt for a sister size when the cups fit but the band doesn’t," she advises.

    For example, if you try on a bra and the cups fit but the band is too tight, you can't just go up a band size: "You’ll actually end up with larger cups if you do this," Seymour explains. "Choose a sister size instead with a larger band for a better fit." The below chart makes easy work of finding your sister size:
