Ok this sounds totaly stupid..But when I was younger I remember hearing a add on the T.V. for a bra store that will help you figure out what your true bra size is and what the best style of bra is for your chest...
I have no clue what size of a chest I really have and apperntly I am not the only one in my family with this problem..I don't what my boobs to be at my knees when I am 30 so if any one can help that would be awesome!

Victoria's secret, but if your plus sized, try Lane Bryant, JCPenny, Sears.

Most Lingerie stores do this...they will take you in a n measure you and then give you bras in your size...they will also double check that the bra is fitting you the correct way. I think Nordies is the best place. I find that vicotria secrets has always givin me the wrong sizes..end up spending a nice amount $$$ and then a few weeks later they are stretched out and too big. Also, I find their bras don't nearly last as long as my DKNY and their in the same orice range...actually I have bought bras from Walmart that have lasted longer. The key is to find a brand that works for you. Thats why I suggest Nordies more options! Good Luck to ya

I would recommend going to a lingerie specialty store. The employees are trained to give you a proper fitting and to let you know what best suit your build. Victoria's Secret is more about selling pretty lingerie, not practical. While you may not want to buy a bra at a specialty store, they will give you your true bra size and then feel free to go to VS to buy something pretty in your true size.

Any lingerie store you go to will be able to measure you for the proper sized bra.
You should actually get measured at least once a year to make sure your body hasn't changed.
I think also, if you go to www.victoriasecret.com, and go to the sizing charts you will be able to find measurement for all the different bra sizes.
Oh! I just saw a whole thing about this on Oprah's site as well. They did a whole episode on proper bra fitting. They explain how to measure yourself properly so you can do it at home.

Go to Victoria's Secret! They're great! I wasn't too sure whether I was wearing the correct size or not so I just walked in one day & told them that & someone was glad to help measure me. They offered to help me find a good bra but I had declined cause I didn't have money on me at the time.

Yes definately head to Victorias Secret...they have Bra Specialists who can size you up, no problem. I used to be one! :) They can get you all set up with a style you like, in your correct size. You would be surprised but about 75% of women are wearing the wrong bra size!

lol that's not stupid! I read somewhere that like 68% of women wearing bras, actaully wear the wrong size... or some number like that. lol. Anyway.... go to any department store, they will fit you if you ask them. Victorias secret also will measure you and then help you pick out styles that you personally like!

Go to Victorias Secret... The women who are employed there are trained to measure for bra size. Usually you are two sizes.. Example if you are a 32 B ( which are hard to find) the equivalent is 34A , or if you are 36 B you are also a 34C.

type specialty bra into a search engine, jenunique and Cameo are really good, the fitting is free and its private. Work well for small cups as well as industrial strength. No underwire, they have a lift, a much better idea.

I have gone to a few places, department stores, VS, I do get different answers at different places, I suggest you try them on before leaving, then you get an idea of what you like and what feels good, plus, every bra feels and looks different!
