Maternity Size Guide

Choosing the Right Bra

• • • Approximate Size Chart
    When buying a new maternity bra, make sure to choose one cup above the one you were currently using, i.e. if you were using a A cup, you will need a B cup; if you were using a B cup, you will need a C cup; and so on.
    The underbust can be adjusted so there is no need to change the size of it.
  • Ex) Normal size ⇒ Maternity size
    B75 ⇒ C75
    C80 ⇒ D80
  • *The sizes mentioned above can be vary depending on the model.
  • *The Under Bust has been given range with the use of stretchy material and adjusters. Adjusters allow adjustment of around 5cm in 4 stages, so you can continue to wear them from the middle of pregnancy through nursing. If you're not sure what size you were before becoming pregnant, refer to the chart on the right for how to take your measurements. After taking your measurements and comparing them with the chart below, choose the appropriate listed size if you're towards the end of your pregnancy or have already given birth. If you're at the start of your pregnancy, choose one cup size higher.

Bra Size Chart

Even when the sizes are the same as those of a normal bra, these maternity bras are designed deeper and with a greater volume so as not to place pressure on the nipples.

Guide for Maternity Belts/Supports

Look at the column for how far into your pregnancy you are, move down to your measurements, and then look to the left to see your size. (Can be worn up until giving birth.)

*If you lie in or between two categories, choose depending on the fit you like: if you prefer a loose fit, choose the higher size; if you prefer a tighter fit, choose the smaller size.

Sports Bras/Camisoles with Cups etc.

*Choose these items based on the Top Bust measurements.

Reshaping Girdle/Panties/Waist Nipper Size Guide

*Reshaping girdles and nippers are items for returning your body to the same size it was before you were pregnant. That's why your size choice should be based on the size you used to be, not on the size you are now.

*It is important to use these items sensibly. Wearing an excessively tight size may disrupt your body's circulation and cause health problems.

*If you experienced health problems after giving birth or had a Caesarian delivery, please consult your doctor before using these items.

Bras you can wear before and after giving birth!

Angeliebe's bras can be worn from the middle of your pregnancy through nursing--that's around 15-20 months!
Their most special feature is that they can be worn when nursing.
You don't need to keep your baby waiting, as these bras open up in a snap.

• Strap-Opening

  

  An easy-access type. Just the cup part drops down. Very popular because it can be quickly opened with one hand. The tape that holds the pad in place is attached to the strap.

• Cross-Opening

  

  The cup parts overlap, and the under part is joined. You can pull down just one cup part, for easy nursing.

• Front-Opening

  

  Undo the front snaps to move aside one of the cups. The under is still joined, so it keeps things stable.

• Window-Opening

  

  Pulling down the cup exposes just the area needed for nursing. Your bust is kept stable while nursing. Recommended for women who are generously endowed.

Choosing the Right Outer Wear (Tops, Skirts etc.)

Tops that look great in sizes that are just right. Bust, Waist and Hip measurements indicate the body measurements of the figures those items are designed for. Length, Shoulder Width, Sleeve Length and Shoulder + Sleeve are the measurements of the garments themselves.

Even if you've gotten bigger during your pregnancy, choose the size you were before becoming pregnant.

• • • When choosing a size, start by looking at the same size code you wore before becoming pregnant.
  • • This maternity wear uses the stomach measurement as its basis. Except for those with very generous busts, wearers should not experience any problems with their busts not fitting.
  • • The models in the photos are wearing sizes designed for them. Use these photos as references to decide how you'll look in the same items.
  • • Angeliebe items are designed so that those with measurements like those in the charts below can wear them and look slim and beautiful. Furthermore, because they're cut and designed to cater for a reasonable range of measurements those with measurements larger than those in the charts can still wear them.
    This also means that you're fine even if you put on a bit of weight, or if your stomach suddenly grows.

Nightie Sizes
Nighties are all one-size-fits-all.

Measurements for choosing outers

Lengths are given in the information for each item.

*The measurements are the body measurements of the figures that suit the garment. They are not the measurements of the garments themselves.

*Items with numbers for their sizes have little flexibility in the ranges of sizes they suit. These items include many bottoms and dresses.

*Items with letters such as M and L for their sizes are more flexible and are mainly made of stretchy materials such as knits.

*One-size-fits-all items are mostly items that are worn loose due to their design or the fabric used.

*The Height measurements are included for general reference only. When choosing, also note the Length and look at the photos etc.

The Secrets of Angeliebe's Slim-Fit Skirts

Stretchy knit paneling at the waist expands to fit your stomach as it grows. Because this knit portion covers your stomach whatever its size, there's no bagginess at your hips and thighs and you get the slim lines you're after.
*There are some items that do not fold over or feature drawstrings.

• 

  ①When you're not really showing, fold the knit part over. If it droops use the drawstring; if it doesn't the drawstring can be removed.

• 

  ②As you start to get bigger, reduce the amount you fold the knit part over.

• 

  ③When your stomach becomes noticeably larger, unroll the knit part completely. Your stomach will be nicely covered, and the hem at the front will still be at the level it used to be.

The Secrets Behind Angeliebe's Tunics and Dresses

Designed with features like extra length at the front to stop it rising as your stomach gets larger, and elastic shirring at the back. Thanks to these you get a great fit when your stomach's still normal, and then as you get bigger the garments stretch for both style and comfort.
There are also lots of other great features, like ribbon belts that let you adjust an item's widths.

Reference body measurements for pants

• • • You can check the Fork and Cuff Width measurements too, so get the fit you're after!
    The great lines of Angeliebe's pregnancy pants are due to their great fit at the thighs. Use as a reference the Fork and Cuff Width measurements of the pants you wore before you started to show.
  • • Look at the measurements of your favorite pre-pregnancy pants!
    The Fork is the width taken straight across from the point where the legs join.
  • • Angeliebe's Special Range of Inseam Lengths
    Angeliebe's pregnancy pants come in a variety of inseam lengths that allow you to choose to suit your height and taste. In general, there are differences of 3-5cm from regular sizing, but as each item varies please check the measurements for the particular item you are interested in.

  • S	Short
    R	Regular
    T	Tall
    TT	Double Tall
    TTT	Triple Tall

    *The S, R and T in sizes such as 9R indicate the inseam length.
