I can't find an accurate bra size calculator! Help?

For a while now, I've been buying size 34B, but lately, they seem too small. So, I tried many online bra size charts and calculators. They all said something different! It could very well just be the maker of the bras I was trying, or maybe they just grew?! Anyway, my frame/band size is about a 29, and my bust size is about a 34-35. Can anyone recommend an accurate size calculator, or determine my size for me? I appreciate it!! :)

    If it seems too small, try going up a cup size before going up a band size. The band stretches over time, eventually making bras feel too big, so go up to a C before moving up to a 36. As you said, when you measured yourself you were a 34-35, so that's not unusual. Keep "sister sizes" in mind, too. A 36B is very close to a 34C or a 32D. So while a 36 might feel better, it's likely you need a C cup instead.

    Good luck!

    the respond could be 36A (for 37" bust) or 36B for (38" bust). Your waist/back i'm assuming you're measuring your rib cage (band length) which if 32" you upload 4 to 5 inches (whichever promises an excellent variety) to calculate the band length (32 + 4 = 36). Then cup length is the adaptation between the band length and your bust. So A = a million" distinction, B = 2" distinction, C = 3" so on etc. E.g. My band length is 34 as my bigger rib cage is 29" (29+5). while my bust is 37.5 so i'm between a 34C and 34D. that's what's comfortable to me even nevertheless i'm supposedly a 30 F or something ridiculous...which i'm in no way!
