Help me figure out this Chantelle bra's size?
I bought a Chantelle Merci spacer bra, #1747, on Ebay which had the tags cut off but the seller was sure it was a US size 32DD, said she'd compared it to other bras that size. Well, I've received it and it is definitely larger than 32DD! Based on the way the band fits me I'm pretty sure it's a 34 (measures 26.5" to 34"), and the cup measurements are: 5.5" width, 9.4" horizontal depth, 7.5" vertical depth, 10.75" underwire length. The wing is 4.5" tall and the gore is 2.75" tall. I own a Chantelle 34D, and this seems like at least two cup sizes bigger. Does anyone have a similar Chantelle model with these measurements?

That sucks!
The measurements are pretty similar to the 70G measurements entered, except with a larger band. Not much entered for the sizes up - could be 75F or so. I had it in 30E/65F and that for sure sounds too big!
annabellynn Thank you so much - I did think the cup seemed like either a 32DDDD/70G or a 34DDD/75F. And since the band fits me the same way my 34/75 Chantelle bras do, I'm confident it's that band size. I'm still finding my way around all the bra measurements here, so I appreciate that a lot!
It does suck that it isn't my size, as I was really looking forward to having this model in my size. But if I can't return it and get a refund, then hopefully I'll at least be able to find someone here who can use it!
