Our fit rating says this style runs true to size, though fit reports vary a bit more than usual on this one — some find it runs small. One reviewer wearing a 42C says our 2X fits her perfectly, which may help if you're deciding between sizes. When in doubt, size up.

All measurements in inches. This chart is a great starting point — in my Ahh styles, I can wear anywhere from a Medium to an XL comfortably, so when you can, try a couple of styles in your size to find what feels best on you.

How to Measure

  • Bust: Measure around the fullest point of your bust (best done without a bra, or with an unpadded bra, for the most accurate measure).
  • Waist: Measure at your natural waistline, just under your ribcage.
  • Hip: Measure around the fullest point of your hips and seat.
  • Bra — Shop Your Top: Pick your bra in the same size you wear in a fitted top. A Medium top means a Medium bra. Simple!
Did you know? Almost 80% of women don’t know their correct bra size. Your body changes throughout your life, so it’s worth checking in every so often — the right size and style makes all the difference in comfort and confidence.

Gel Bra with Back Closure FAQ

What sizes does the Gel Bra with Back Closure come in?

S through 3X. Band sizes run 34"–50" and bust sizes 34"–54". Rhonda Shear recommends "shop your top" — buy the same size you wear in a fitted top.

Does this bra run true to size?

Our fit rating says true to size, though a few reviewers found it runs a bit small. As a reference point, one reviewer wearing a 42C says our 2X fits her perfectly — if you're between sizes, sizing up is the safer call.

What is it made of and how do I wash it?

64% nylon, 36% spandex. Machine wash cold with like colors, tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron.

How does the gel support work?

Gel contour bonding sits under the bust in place of hard underwire, giving soft, flexible support with no wire poking or digging in.

What colors are available?

Black, Beige, Teal, Pink, White, and Dusty Pink.

What's it best for?

Everyday wear when you want a familiar hook & eye back closure with the smooth, wire-free gel support Rhonda Shear is known for.
