What Are Sister Bra Sizes?

A new bra not fitting perfectly could be down to any number of reasons. It might be that you’re trying a different brand, a different style of bra, or even that your bra has come from a different manufacturer. Any of these reasons might mean you need to look for a different size.

This is where sister sizes come in. These are the sizes that surround your bra size, and it’s important to know what your sister sizes are so you can easily find a bra that gives you the correct amount of support and comfort.

Size Chart For Sister Sizes For 36 Bra Band Size

For anyone with a 36 bra band size, take a look at our chart below to find out what your sister sizes are. You can size up or size down, depending on whether your usual size feels too small or too big.

How to Find Your Sister Bra Size

When you’ve identified your current bra size on the chart, you’ll find sister sizes to size up and size down. You can choose which one to try on depending on whether your current bra feels too tight or too loose.

Our general advice is this: if you go up in band size, you may need to go down in cup size. If you go down in band size, you may need to choose a higher cup size.

Please note that this is just a guide. Sister sizing can be quite complicated and you may need to adjust both the cup size and the band size to get the best fit. Sister sizes can be other sizes that surround the initial size. Take a look at our example chart.
