Wacoal Size Guide

How Wacoal America labels cup sizes, its published size range, how its online calculator differs from ours, and its official US to UK cup table.

Scope: Bras on Wacoal America’s US website (wacoal-america.com). Other Wacoal regions may differ. Brand pages checked:

A

Which size labels does Wacoal use?

US website
Cup sizes use US letters that skip E and F after DDD: DD, DDD, G, H, I, J. Source (opens in a new tab)

Rule of thumb: use the sizing system shown on the product page you are buying from, and check it against Wacoal’s guide for that storefront.

B

Published size range

Stated range
Band sizes 30 to 46 and cup sizes A to I
Elsewhere on the site
Larger cups are listed up to K, and at least one product is offered in a J cup

Wacoal’s pages give different upper cup sizes, so check the size options on the product you want.

C

What Wacoal says about fit

  • Measuring: Wacoal asks you to measure in a non-padded bra, keep the underbust tape level and secure, measure the bust at its fullest point without compressing, and not to round your size down.
  • Its calculator: Based on the script behind Wacoal’s online calculator, it adds inches to smaller underbust measurements and counts the cup from the band size, so it can suggest a larger band and a smaller cup letter than our calculator for the same measurements.
  • Fit checks: Wacoal publishes a five-point fit check covering band, cups, centre, straps and overall fit.
Section D · Converting

Converting a size for Wacoal?

Wacoal’s size-charts page has a US to UK cup table (DDD = UK E, G = UK F, H = UK FF … O = UK K), which matches our converter. It appears under the heading for Wacoal’s UK-sized sister brands (Elomi, Freya, Fantasie), so it may not describe Wacoal-label bras.

Does Wacoal run small or large?

We do not publish “runs small” or “runs large” claims unless the brand itself says so, and we have not tested Wacoal bras. Start with your usual size in the sizing system the product uses, then use the fit checker to decide what to change.
