The band should feel secure without digging in; cups and straps should feel comfortable as you move.

How the Spanx guide works
This page is a label conversion, not the manufacturer’s own measurement calculation. Your general starting size is translated into the brand’s published labels.
Translates your general starting size into this brand’s published chart labels. It does not calculate a size using the manufacturer’s own body-measurement method.

Source scope and chart notes
Only the official support guide’s “Alpha Sizing” image; slash labels (XS/S, XL/1X, etc.) and blank cells are preserved. No body method is enabled: the public blog describes a measured-band subtraction method while the linked support guide adds four/five inches first. Conflicting body methods must be resolved by the manufacturer, not blended. This converts a general starting label, not a fit prediction.
Let’s find your starting point
Measure over a t-shirt or a lightly lined bra, or without one—whichever feels right.
A number can guide you. Your comfort gets the final say.
Bra sizing isn’t consistent from one label—or even one style—to the next. Think of this as a useful first try, not a rule you have to fit.
If your first try is close but not quite right, compare neighboring sizes and another style or cut.
Brands use different patterns, fabrics, and size ranges. A mismatch says more about the garment than about you.
