Different countries use different
bra sizing methods, i'm sure this is just to confuse us even more!
The UK and USA
are very similar using the Imperial system with a letter cup size.....but once you get towards the larger cup sizes things
change. See the comparison chart below.
In most European countries the sizing is done in Metric with a letter cup size,
but again this is not the same for all countries in Europe. Italy uses a different system again!!
Australia use a totally different system which is based on the dress sizing charts.
Hopefully
the charts will help you out when purchasing lingerie online from different countries.

Goddess Sizing chart
Once you get into the D cup sizes and larger, there tends to be a discrepancy
among brands and sometimes between collections within a brand as to what to call sizes beyond a D cup. We hope this chart,
showing Goddess sizing by collection, clears up some of the mystery. Go ahead and measure as we described in the fitting page
and then refer below for your correct size in the various collections.
