    Zodee has live help so you can chat to them about sizing because it's never consistent across the brands. They also have free delivery on exchanges so if you do end up with the wrong size you can swap it.

    ETA - from the Zodee site
    Remove clothing before taking measurements but always keep a bra on whilst measuring. A non padded bra gives a more accurate measurement.
    and for kicks and giggles

    Men Buying For Ladies
    The easiest way to determine the size for your ladyfriend is to have a look in her lingerie drawer at the sizes she is currently wearing. This may not always be possible and if the thought of being caught browsing through her lingerie drawer put you off there is another easier method which surprisingly works quite well. Think of her bust as a piece of fruit. The equivalent fruit size matches the cup size you should buy:
    Fruit Cup Size
    Lemon A Cup
    Orange B Cup
    Grapefruit C Cup
    Melon D Cup

    Thanks girls. My best fitting bra is an absolute shocker because I've left it so long so here's hoping to an improvement lol.

    Is there an Intimo consultant out there?? They are all trained to fit you properly. When I had a party last year they measured me over the bra and my nw bras fit perfectly.
