Explore 16DD Bra Sizes at The Foundation
Understanding the 16DD Bra Size
The 16DD bra size is tailored for women with a 16 band size (equivalent to a 95 underbust measurement in cm) and a DD cup, which signifies a fuller bust relative to the band. It offers the perfect balance for those who need ample support without compromising comfort or style. Whether you're after everyday comfort or something special from our new arrivals, we've curated our collection to suit your shape and lifestyle. Fine Lines Lingerie also features styles in this size.

How to Measure Your Bra Size
To find your correct bra size, use a soft tape measure and follow these steps:
- Band Size: Wrap the tape snugly around your ribcage, just under your bust. Round to the nearest whole number. This is your band size.
- Bust Measurement: Measure around the fullest part of your bust. The difference between this and your band size determines your cup size.
Refer to our size chart and customer service team for personalised help. We also offer virtual bra fitting services and in-store bra fittings.
