        Sizing Information

        We design and make our Exotic Dancewear and Swimwear, and frequently do custom work, so if you take the time to measure yourself and answer a few questions, we'll choose your sizes for you. For those of you who don't own a tape measure, go to your local fabric, grocery or drug store, and get one now or print this measuring tape. Cut it out and tape it together.  It could save you a lot of postage from mailing back garments that don't fit!
        For those of you who know your measurements, there's a chart below. Whatever you do, forget EVERYTHING you know about sizes! You know how crazy they are! INCHES (or centimeters) don't lie. Our sizes are SMALLER than you may be accustomed to. We do  XX-Smalls, so XX-Small is as tiny as it gets. Most dancers that come to us fit into our X-SMALL, SMALL or MEDIUM.

        Email me with your Questions.

        How Do I Find My Glitz Bra Size?

         This method does require a tape measure, to determine the band and cup sizes. You’ll also need to put on your favorite unpadded bra. It helps to stand in front of a mirror to see what you’re doing and to check that the tape measure is horizontal.

        Under Bust measurement should be taken by holding the tape measure horizontally underneath the breasts. Pull the tape measure firmly against your body so that it feels TIGHT, and don’t breathe in deeply. Don’t worry about it feeling too restrictive – the elasticity of the bra should take care of comfort.

        Full Bust measurement should be taken by holding the tape measure horizontally around the fullest part of your breast across the nipples.

        Now find your Under Bust measurement on the table,  trace down along to the correct vertical column to your Full Bust measurement, to find your true bra size.

        If we don't offer your bra size

         You can order a size equivalent. By tracing horizontally in the same row as your full Bust measurement. You will notice that for each column you move to the left, the band size decreases by two inches and the cup size increases by one letter, and the reverse happens if you move to the right. This is because all the sizes on each horizontal row of the table are equivalent in cup size volume. If you were to stay in the same cup size but move to a smaller band size, then the cups would also be smaller. A  D cup on a 36" band is equivalent to a DD cup on a 34" band, or an E cup on a 32" band etc.

        If we don't offer your bra size on our bra pages, Ask about how to get a bra custom made in your true bra size.
