The easiest way is to begin with the size you would usually wear. Our bra sizing and measurements are consistent with most United Kingdom bra brands.
If you are happy with the fit of your current bra, then we recommend you try the same size from Taking Shape. Eg. if your favourite bra is a size 18DD in another brand, we recommend you try a size 18DD from Taking Shape.

UNDERBUST
Measure tightly around the body directly below the bust. Ensure the tape is parallel to the ground.

OVERBUST
Measure tightly around the body directly above the bust. Ensure the tape is parallel to the ground.

A quick checklist for the correct fit -

Cups are neatly encasing the breasts without any overflow
Underbust band is firm and sitting parallel to the ground
Underwire is comfortably encircling the breasts and not digging in
Shoulder straps are firm and secure, not tight and digging into shoulders

The Bra Size Chart is to be used as a guide only, as body and breast shapes are unique and can vary. If you aren’t satisfied with your purchase, you can return it in accordance with our returns policy.

Numerical (12-24)

Many of our styles feature a size range of 12-24. This is typically assigned to woven designs, such as cotton, linen and polyester blend products, which generally offer less stretch than knit styles.

Alphabetical (XXS-XL)

Our knit styles, which are usually viscose or polyester blends with elastane, are typically assigned a size range of XXS-XL. This is due to their stretch and more flexible fit. We also offer a selection of styles in smaller size ranges, such as S, M & L. These styles have a generous fit and are made in fewer sizes due to their oversized nature.

Bust

Keeping the tape level, measure around the fullest part of your bust.

Waist

Measure your natural waistline, which sits in between your rib cage and hips. Remember to keep the tape comfortably loose.

Hips

Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms by your side. Measure your hips at the point where your wrist falls against your leg (this should be at their widest point).

Tips for measuring

Use a tape measure
Wear firm-fitting clothing and your everyday bra.
Measure yourself in front of a mirror.

Must have

Sophie712 - Melbourne | 12 April 2024

The perfect must have for wearing over dresses, particularly wedding or formal dresses when you don’t want to detract from the dress itself. I ordered in sand and black and I know they’ll be a staple for years to come!

Beware of the Noir but the rest I love

Jenn - Hamilton | 24 February 2024

I love the slinky softness of the Turkish Blue and the Ash, but didn't notice the fabric was different in the Noir cos I didn't read the fine print. The Noir for me is scratchy and uncomfortable, TS has awful linen imo, but the others feel and look fabulous and I knot the long drape on each side to use as a jacket.
