Hi all,
I recently ordered a few tops and a dress through eBay which were all listed as 38" chest, yet two of the 5 pieces of clothing didn't fit at all, and only the stretchier material ones did.
This got me thinking.....
we all know how to measure for a bra, around the chest for the band size, around the bust and use the delta for the cup size. But when it comes to chest measurements for a top, do we use the same measurement?, or are we supposed to measure around the fullest part of the breast?, so my 38C would become a 42" chest?
im fed up of wasting money online like this so any help would be greatly appreciated :)
