🎯 Din BH-størrelse
Finding a bra that fits perfectly makes you feel comfortable and supported all day! But bra sizes can be confusing because different countries use different systems. In Norway, bra sizes usually follow the standard European (EU) system. This means they use centimeters (cm) for measuring and have band sizes like 70, 75, 80, and cup sizes like A, B, C.
Knowing your correct Norwegian bra size (norsk BH-størrelse), which is the same as your EU size, helps when shopping for bras in Norway or from European brands. Using an accurate bra size calculator is the easiest way to figure it out! This guide and our Norway bra size calculator (BH-størrelseskalkulator Norge) make understanding norske BH-størrelser simple!
Let’s learn how to measure and use our bra size calculator for Norway!
How to Measure for the Norway Bra Size Calculator
Finding your Norwegian bra size (using the EU system) starts with simple measurements using a soft measuring tape and centimeters (cm)! Getting accurate measurements is key for using any bra size calculator correctly. General guides like this one on taking body measurements for sewing show the basics.
- Measure Your Underbust (Omkrets under bysten): Wear a non-padded bra or no bra. Breathe out normally. Wrap the tape measure firmly around your body, right underneath your breasts where the bra band should sit. Keep the tape straight and snug.
Write down this number in cm. - Measure Your Bust (Omkrets over bysten): Keep the tape level and wrap it loosely around the fullest part of your breasts. Don’t pull the tape too tight.
Write down this number in cm too. - Use the Bra Size Calculator: Enter your underbust measurement (cm) and your bust measurement (cm) into the Norway bra size calculator above.
- Get Your Result: Click the calculate button! Our bra size calculator will suggest your Norwegian (EU) bra size (like 75B or 80C).
Easy Tip: Stand in front of a mirror to keep the tape measure level. Asking someone you trust for help can make measuring easier!
How Norwegian (EU System) Bra Sizes Work (and the Calculator Helps!)
Norwegian bra sizing follows the standard European (EU) method. Here’s how the bra size calculator figures it out:
- Band Size (Båndstørrelse / Omkretsstørrelse): The band number (70, 75, 80…) comes directly from your underbust measurement in cm. Each number covers a small range.
- 68-72 cm underbust ≈ 70 band
- 73-77 cm underbust ≈ 75 band
- 78-82 cm underbust ≈ 80 band
- 83-87 cm underbust ≈ 85 band
(Our calculator determines this band number for you!)
- Cup Size (Skålstørrelse): The letter (A, B, C, D…) shows the difference between your bust measurement (cm) and your underbust measurement (cm). The bra size calculator finds the cup based on this difference:
- ~12-14 cm difference ≈ A cup
- ~14-16 cm difference ≈ B cup
- ~16-18 cm difference ≈ C cup
- ~18-20 cm difference ≈ D cup
- ~20-22 cm difference ≈ E cup

What Your Norwegian Bra Size Means
Your calculated Norwegian bra size (e.g., 75C or 80B) from the bra size calculator helps you shop for bras using the EU system common in Norway. Remember that fit can still vary a bit between different styles and brands.
You can compare your Norwegian/EU size to other systems using our US Bra Size Calculator or UK Bra size Calculator.
Bodies change, so remeasuring and using a bra size calculator every year is smart. If you feel between sizes, sister sizes (søsterstørrelser) might help. If a 75B band feels loose, try 70C (smaller band, bigger cup). If 75B feels tight, try 80A (bigger band, smaller cup). Our Sister Size Finder explains this.
Fixing Common Bra Fit Problems
Getting the right norsk BH-størrelse, often found using a bra size calculator, can solve many issues!
- Band Rides Up Back? Band number (70, 75…) is likely too big. Try a smaller band number, bigger cup (e.g., change 80A to 75B).
- Straps Dig In? Check band fit first. If straps still dig, the style might be wrong.
- Spilling Out? Need a bigger cup letter (skålstørrelse).
- Gaps in Cups? Cup might be too big, or style is wrong. Try smaller cup or different style.
- Wire Pokes? Size or style is likely incorrect.
Changing International Sizes to Norwegian (EU)
Converting sizes to Norwegian bra sizes (which are the same as EU sizes) requires a conversion chart or bra size calculator if you know your size in a different system.
- US/UK to Norwegian/EU: Needs conversion. (e.g., US/UK 32 ≈ NO/EU 70; US/UK 34 ≈ NO/EU 75). Cup letters often align up to D, then check carefully (UK DD ≈ EU E).
- French (FR) to Norwegian/EU: Subtract 15 from the French band number. Cup letter stays the same. (e.g., FR 90B = NO/EU 75B).
- Italian (IT) to Norwegian/EU: Needs conversion. (e.g., IT 1 ≈ NO/EU 70; IT 2 ≈ NO/EU 75). Cup letters are usually the same.
- AU to Norwegian/EU: Needs conversion. (e.g., AU 10 ≈ NO/EU 70; AU 12 ≈ NO/EU 75). Cup letters often align up to D/DD.
Accurate measurements are key! Trust your cm measurements with the Norway bra size calculator. Guides like this one on measurement accuracy are helpful.
| Underbust (cm) | Norwegian/EU Band Size | Approx. US/UK Band | Approx. French Band | Approx. Italian Band |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 68-72 cm | 70 | 32 | 85 | 1 |
| 73-77 cm | 75 | 34 | 90 | 2 |
| 78-82 cm | 80 | 36 | 95 | 3 |
