The Ariel Bra Cup is designed to work with the Eve Classic Bra Bands for the Demi wire. The smallest sizes are designed for a regular wire since we do not carry demi wires smaller than a size 36. You can easily utilize a demi wire size 32 in place of the 28 regular wire and a 34 demi in place of the 30 regular wire.
The Ariel is designed to be worn as a demi. In order to use the cup rotated in a traditional cup orientation with the regular, vertical and flat vertical wires, select one size smaller from the recommended size chart. The instructions provide instructions for altering the cup to fit the Eve Classic Bra Band for Regular Wires, Vertical Wires and Flat Vertical Wires. Note that you can utilize our molded cups for select sizes with a V4 torso shape. The V4 torso shape would be my recommended torso shape for manufacturing.
The Ariel comes in 19 different sizes in 4 different torso shapes. Each cup size was created for up to 5 different demi wire sizes. The download files include A4 and Letter sizes only.
Determine your recommended size by measuring your underbust measurement which is taken around the ribcage directly below the bust, and full bust. Round up to the next whole number. Note: my sizing generally places you in one band size smaller and one cup size larger than other brands, but I am consistent with my sizing on all my patterns.
