So you're eyeing that cute lace bra set from a trendy Chinese lingerie brand. The model looks flawless, the price is right, and—oh yeah—it says 'true to size' right there in the product description. But let’s be real: how many times has that phrase led to disappointment? We decided to dig deep and put these "true to size" claims in CN lingerie to the test. Spoiler: it’s not always as straightforward as they make it sound.
Why 'True to Size' Can Be Tricky
In China, lingerie sizing often follows a hybrid system mixing EU standards with local adaptations. While some brands use international benchmarks, others rely on in-house charts that can vary wildly. A study of 30 popular Alibaba and Taobao lingerie sellers found that only 43% aligned closely with global size standards. That means over half may stretch the truth—literally.
We Tested 5 Top Brands
We ordered the same size (EU 75B) from five well-reviewed Chinese lingerie brands and compared measurements against standard EU sizing. Here’s what we found:
| Brand | Cup Volume (cm) | Band Tightness | Fit Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| LunaCurve (Shenzhen) | 12.1 | Slightly loose | Runs large |
| SilkHaze (Hangzhou) | 13.5 | Perfect | True to size ✅ |
| PeachBlush (Guangzhou) | 11.8 | Tight | Runs small |
| NovaLace (Suzhou) | 13.2 | Slight gap | Runs large |
| EveSilk (Beijing) | 13.4 | Snug but wearable | Mostly accurate |
As you can see, only SilkHaze nailed the fit across both cup and band. Others either skimped on volume or used tighter bands, which can cause discomfort or poor support.
Pro Tips for Buying CN Lingerie Online
- Always check the size chart—don’t assume 'M' means the same thing everywhere.
- Look for brands that list actual garment measurements, not just body size.
- Read reviews with photos—real bodies don’t lie.
- If between sizes, size up. It’s easier to adjust a looser band than squeeze into a tight cup.
The Bottom Line
'True to size' sounds great in theory, but in the world of Chinese-made lingerie, it’s more of a suggestion than a guarantee. Our tests show significant variation—even among reputable brands. Your best bet? Treat every brand like a first date: do your homework, go in with realistic expectations, and keep return options open.
At the end of the day, comfort > cuteness. Don’t let a label fool you into thinking you need to change your body for a bra. Instead, find one that fits you—not the other way around.
