Shopping for bras in Australia

Australia numbers bands by dress-size logic: an AU 10 band equals a US 32, AU 12 a US 34, and so on. Cups mostly follow the UK ladder, so an AU 12DD is close to a UK 34DD. Confusion arrives with US imports whose DDD does not exist locally.

Aussie brands like Berlei and Bonds fit warm-climate priorities: breathable fabrics, wirefree engineering and strong sports bra ranges tested for impact.

Brands you will commonly see: Berlei, Bonds, Bras N Things, Lovable.

How Australia writes a bra size

Australia uses dress-size numbering for the band, which is the American band minus 22: a US 34 is a 12 on an Australia tag.

Cups follow the British ladder, doubled letters included, so DD, E, F and FF all appear.

Sizes are written band first, then cup, as in 12DD.

AU size conversion chart

Every row is one body. The AU column is what the label prints; the others are what the same bra is called elsewhere, which is what you need when a brand ships from abroad.

Frequently asked questions

What bra sizing system does Australia use?
Australia primarily uses AU sizing conventions in mainstream retail, though imported brands can carry other systems' labels. The calculator above highlights your AU size and shows all 7 systems for imports.
Which bra brands are common in Australia?
Commonly available names include Berlei, Bonds, Bras N Things, Lovable. Local availability shifts, and each brand's own centimeter chart beats any converted label when they disagree.
What is a US 34DD in Australia sizing?
A US 34DD is a 12DD in Australia. The same bra is a UK 34DD and an EU 75E, because the cup ladders diverge after D.
Do I add inches to my underbust measurement in Australia?
No. The old habit of adding four or five inches was written for non-stretch fabric and produces a band about two sizes too loose on a modern elastic one. Measure snug and level, and use that number directly, whichever system the label uses.
