    I order 7 bras out of China, my size is 40DD. I order them in the middle of March 2017, said they will be ready to ship.. They were not, got another notice in Mid April 2017, said back order second time, that they would get them mailed out May after the 4 May 2017, I just received them today and of course my cup size was wrong. My CUP size that I ordered 40DD which should be 40/90F and I got 40/90E. What is needed for you to mail me the right cup size. I ordered these for a special occasion. Which is 6 days away? Thank you, Karen

    My Absolute most Beloved AV Model { Rui Akikawa }, is blessed with a 104cm ” J ” Cup frame; what does that translate to USA measurements? Just curious? ?

  • MK.Boelsma

    I don’t understand the size tables: the 2nd table says: USA cup D= EU (and f.i. China, Hongkong) D, USA DD=E, DDD=F. The 3rd table (cup size/band size) says: DDD/E . The 4th table says: D=E, DD=F, DDD=G. Who nows the answer?
