More bra sizing confusion!!!! Please help me understand....

More bra sizing confusion!!!! Please help me understand.... I just received an order of bras to try on through Bare Necessities. On the particular bra pages, it specifically states "UK Sized bra" and then beside that, it has a link for a pop-up Size Chart which lists the size conversion for USA, Euro, and UK. According to the chart, if I want a USA J cup, I would order a UK GG cup. Soooo I used that method based on the information they provided me and ordered all the bras in this way. Now I open my order and on all the tags, it says that the USA size is the same as the UK size, and they are all too small. Why does the tag itself say for example, UK 38GG USA 38GG. They aren't supposed to be the same, right? Just more confusion thrown on top to deal with... *sigh*

  • The tagging is done by brand, US sizing should never ever ever be paid attention to. I would just make sure to always order by UK sizing (unless from asos or simplybe, in which case, I would refer you to the charts that BIHAL made). What bra is it? It could be a model issue.

  • I am not familiar with UK sizing. Panache 6966, Sculptresse 6915, Elomi 8740, Elomi 8810, Panache 6951. What/who is BIHAL?
