World renowned, Hanky Panky has created sleepwear and intimate apparel for over 25 years.

In the 70’s, Hanky Panky emerged, creating intimate apparel constructed of fine embroidered cotton handkerchiefs – hence the company name. In the 90’s, the original Hanky Panky Thong was rated the “most comfortable” and described as feeling “like butter.” Constructed of super-soft and stretchy lace, it has set new standards of comfort for the thong panty and is now available in a low-rise. From the original handkerchief camisole & G-string of the 70's, to the lacy tops and thongs of the 90's, Hanky Panky continues its dedication to comfort, fit and quality.

How To Measure Bra Size

As many as 8 in 10 women wear the wrong size bra, so chances are the bra you're wearing at this very moment isn’t your correct size. A properly fitting bra is not only comfortable- it's truly flattering. The perfect bra can lift, separate, accentuate, minimize or maximize – all you have to do is find the right one. Your quest for the perfect bra begins with the perfect fit and Bare Necessities is here to help.

There are two important measurements you'll need to know to figure out your correct size – the Band measurement, and the Cup measurement. The Band measurement represents the numeric portion of your bra size – the 36 in a 36c. The cup measurement will be used to determine your cup size – the letter C in the size 36c.

Step #1 : Band Measurement

Measure under your arms, high on your back, around the top of your chest. If this measurement is an even number, then this is your band size. If this measurement is an odd number, then add 1" to determine your band size. Record that number, you'll need it for step 3.

Step #2 : Cup Measurement

While wearing your favorite supportive, comfortable bra, measure loosely around the fullest part of your bust. Record that number, you’ll need it in a sec.

Step # 3 : Do the Math

Subtract your band measurement from your cup measurement; each inch represents a cup size. For example: if your band measurement is 34" and your cup measurement is 36", then the difference between these measurements is two inches, and you'd wear a B-cup.

1-inch difference (A Cup)
2-inch difference (B Cup)
3-inch difference (C Cup)
4-inch difference (D Cup)
5-inch difference (DD Cup)
6-inch difference (DDD Cup)
7-inch difference (DDDD Cup)
8-inch difference (FF Cup)
9-inch difference (G Cup)
10-inch difference (H Cup)
11-inch difference (I Cup)
12-inch difference (J Cup)

Learn more about Bali Bras

The Bali Bra Company was founded in 1927 by Sam Stein. He chose the name "Bali" in honor of the beautiful women who graced the exotic island of Bali. His vision was to promise his customers "a look like a Balinese beauty".

In the beginning, Sam's wife Sarah sewed the garments by hand on their front porch. By 1940, Sam and Sarah were considered the innovators of the Foundation Industry. They were pioneers, introducing the first bias cup brassiere, the first nylon cup brassiere, and the first all-cotton brassiere. Their concern for quality, fit, performance and comfort made the Bali Company a major success early on. Today the Bali Company continues in the tradition of producing innovative, fashionable products always paying close attention to quality, fit, and comfort.

About the Bali Bra Fit

Bali bras often are cut fuller and offer considerable support and coverage. When selecting a Bali bra, keep in mind that Bali sizing often can be generous.
