Girls! I need your help understanding dress sizes?

[therealadamreed]

My girlfriends birthday is coming up and there's this dress she's always wanted which I'm planning on getting for her birthday.

The difficulty I'm having is that I know she was a size 4 but a couple of months ago she had a breast augmentation which took her from a 32B to a 32DD and now I have no idea what size dress is suitable to accommodate her new larger breasts.

And I don't want to ask her as she will realise that I'm planning on buying her that dress she wants and spoil the surprise. Please help!

You're right, depending on the cut of the dress, she might not be a size 4 anymore. Here are a few options for you:

1. If you have access to her closet, check the size of something you saw her wearing recently.
2. Ask one of her family members (only if you trust them not to spoil the surprise).
3. Buy a size 4, but make sure the store will allow returns/exchanges. Be sure to get a "gift receipt" and include it in the gift.
4. Give her a gift certificate.
