Sizing guide

Silverette® are available in three sizes - Small (were called Original) and Medium (were called XL) and now Large.

🌿 Finding Your Perfect Fit

Whichever size you choose, all Silverette® cups work exactly the same! The sizing is about your personal comfort and fit, rather than performance.

Determining Your Size 

Your body does amazing things during pregnancy and postpartum. To make sure your Silverettes® accommodate your blossoming breastfeeding boobies, we recommend using your expected breastfeeding bra size, or simply adding at least one cup size to your current pregnancy bra size. 

As a general guide:

  • Small (Original): For an adjusted bra size of A–B cup and an areola size less than 4cm.
  • Medium (XL): For an adjusted bra size of C–D cup and an areola size between 4–5cm.
  • Large: For an adjusted bra size of E cup or more and an areola size larger than 5cm.

What if my measurements fall across two sizes? 

📐 The Golden Rule: Go with your largest measurement! 

It’s completely normal to fit into one size for your bra, but another for your areolas. To ensure the most comfortable fit, always choose your cup size based on whichever of your measurements is the largest.

  • Larger bust + Small Areolas? (e.g., D cup, but areolas less than 4cm): Choose Medium. 
  • Petite Bust + Larger Areolas? (e.g., B cup, but areolas over 5cm): Choose Large.

Note: While we use areola measurements in our size guide, the cups do not need to  fully cover your areolas to work their magic. They are designed primarily to shield your nipple and the most sensitive surrounding skin from friction.

Still unsure? When in doubt, always size up! Purely from a comfort perspective, having a little extra room is always better than a fit that is too snug. After all, your comfort is everything 🩷

If they are a gift and you don't fancy asking the mama how big her boobs are (we get it), choose Medium - it is the best 'one-size-fits-most'.
