How to Find Your Perfect Bra Size in Lebanon: The Complete Fitting Guide

Why Most Women Are Wearing the Wrong Bra Size

Fit problems are rarely about the bra itself — they are about the size. Straps that dig in, bands that ride up your back, cups that gap or overflow: all of these are signs your measurements have changed or were never taken properly. The good news is that you can measure yourself at home in under five minutes, with nothing more than a soft measuring tape.

If you already know exactly which problem you have, our bra fit troubleshooting guide goes symptom by symptom — slipping straps, riding band, gaping cups — and tells you what to change in each case.

How to Measure Your Bra Size at Home

Step 1 — Band size

Wrap the measuring tape snugly around your ribcage, directly under your bust. Keep the tape level and exhale normally. Round to the nearest even number in centimeters — this is your band size (for example, 75, 80, 85, 90).

Step 2 — Cup size

Now measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape loose enough not to compress. Subtract your band measurement from this number. The difference determines your cup: roughly 13 cm = B, 15 cm = C, 17 cm = D, 19 cm = E, and so on. Sizing can vary slightly between styles, which is why trying your calculated size and one adjacent size is always smart.

Step 3 — Check the fit

  • The band should sit level all the way around and stay firm on the loosest hook — you should fit two fingers under it, no more.
  • The cups should contain your bust fully with no gaping and no spillover at the top or sides.
  • The straps should support without digging — most of a bra's support comes from the band, not the straps.
  • The center gore (the piece between the cups) should sit flat against your sternum.

💡 Tip: use our bra size calculator — enter your underbust and bust measurements and it gives you your size and your sister size instantly.

What Makes a Great Daily Bra?

A daily bra is the one you reach for without thinking — which means comfort and shape retention matter more than anything. Look for:

  • Full coverage cups that keep everything in place through a long day
  • Wide, cushioned straps that distribute weight
  • Side smoothing panels for a clean line under fitted clothing
  • Breathable fabric — essential in the Lebanese climate

Our Selene line was chosen around exactly these criteria. The Selene Violeta Bra in Black features padded cross-cup support with laser-cut smoothing tulle for the side and underarm area, and the Selene Lourdes Bra in White is a full-coverage everyday option in soft, high-quality fabric. For a warm neutral tone that disappears under light clothing, see the Selene Mariluz Bra in Tierra.

When Should You Replace Your Bra?

Even a well-made bra loses elasticity with regular wear and washing. Replace your daily bras when the band no longer feels firm on the tightest hook, when underwires poke through or distort, or when the cups have lost their shape. Rotating between two or three daily bras extends the life of each one significantly. Wash in cold water, and never machine-dry — heat destroys elastic.

دليل قياس حمالة الصدر في لبنان

لقياس حجم حمالة الصدر في المنزل: أولاً، قيسي محيط القفص الصدري مباشرة تحت الصدر للحصول على قياس الحزام (مثلاً 75، 80، 85). ثانياً، قيسي محيط أكمل جزء من الصدر، واطرحي منه قياس الحزام لتحديد حجم الكوب. الحزام الصحيح يجب أن يبقى مستوياً حول الجسم دون أن يرتفع من الخلف، والكوب يجب أن يحتوي الصدر بالكامل دون فراغ أو انسكاب.

حمالة الصدر اليومية المثالية تجمع بين التغطية الكاملة، الأحزمة المريحة، والأقمشة القابلة للتنفس — وهو ما تجدينه في مجموعة Selene المتوفرة لدى أروما غاردن مع توصيل إلى جميع المناطق اللبنانية. استخدمي حاسبة مقاس حمالة الصدر لمعرفة مقاسك والمقاس الشقيق، وراجعي دليل حلّ مشاكل القياس.


Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my bra band is too big?

If the band rides up your back or you can pull it more than a few centimeters away from your body, it's too big. The band should do most of the supporting work and sit level all the way around.

What bra size should I order if I'm between sizes?

Try a sister size: go down one band size and up one cup size (or the reverse). For example, if 80C feels loose in the band, try 75D.

How many daily bras should I own?

Two to three, rotated between wears. This lets the elastic recover between uses and roughly doubles each bra's lifespan.
