IT chart
Use this Italian bra size chart for brands that label bands as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Italian sizing uses a different band-number system from US, UK, EU, and French charts.
Compare band labels separately from cups. For example, IT 2 corresponds to EU 75 and US/UK 34 in Intimissimi's guide; IT 3 corresponds to EU 80 and US/UK 36.
| IT Band Size | Underbust Range | Approx. EU Band | US / UK Band |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 68-72 cm | 70 | 32 |
| 2 | 73-77 cm | 75 | 34 |
| 3 | 78-82 cm | 80 | 36 |
| 4 | 83-87 cm | 85 | 38 |
| 5 | 88-92 cm | 90 | 40 |
| 6 | 93-97 cm | 95 | 42 |
These bust ranges apply only to Intimissimi's Italian band 2. They are not universal cup differences or a chart for every Italian brand.
| IT Size | Full Bust Range | Underbust Range |
|---|---|---|
| 2A | 82-86 cm | 73-77 cm |
| 2B | 87-91 cm | 73-77 cm |
| 2C | 92-96 cm | 73-77 cm |
| 2D | 97-101 cm | 73-77 cm |
| 2E | 102-106 cm | 73-77 cm |
| 2F | 107-111 cm | 73-77 cm |
Italian sizing uses simple band numbers rather than centimeter or inch labels. This makes it important to confirm that a retailer is using IT sizing before comparing sizes.
Match your underbust to a band in the retailer's chart, then compare your full bust measurement with that band's cup row. A band conversion alone does not establish cup size.
IT 3 corresponds to EU 80 and US/UK 36 in the band guide above. Select the cup separately using the brand's measurements.
They often look similar, but cup depth and labeling can still vary by brand.
Italian band labels use a compact numbering system rather than inch or centimeter band labels.
