Note: If you fit into both size ranges and are unsure which to purchase, the 6 – 14 size range has been drafted for a larger bust cup and a curvier figure. The 1 – 8 size range is based on a dressmaker’s B cup and a 5’3″ – 5’7″ height. The 6 – 14 size range is based on a dressmaker’s D cup and a 5’3″ – 5’8″ height. To determine your dressmaker’s cup size, measure your full bust and upper bust and subtract. Each 2.5 cm (1″) difference equates to one cup size.
Notions: Fusing; 2 cm (0.8") wide elastic; 1 cm (0.39") wide elastic; 0.1 m (0.1 yd) of 1.5 cm (0.59") wide stay tape or fusing.
