Understanding Bra Cup Sizes
First things first, let's understand bra cup sizes. Contrary to popular belief, the letter in a bra size doesn't represent the breast volume alone; it's a combination of band size and cup size. The cup size indicates the difference between your bust circumference and your underbust circumference. For example, an A cup signifies a one-inch difference, a B cup a two-inch difference, and so on.
How to Find the Right Cup Size
Now that you understand the basics, let's dive into how to find the right cup size for you. Start by measuring your band size with our Bra Size Calculator by wrapping a tape measure snugly around your ribcage, just below your bust. Next, measure your bust size by wrapping the tape measure around the fullest part of your breasts. The difference between these two measurements will determine your cup size.
Did you know that 80% of women wear the wrong bra size? If you’re unsure about yours, our Fit Studio is a great resource to help you find the right size and avoid common sizing mistakes.
Comparing Cup Sizes: A vs. B Cup
A cup sizes are typically considered small, with a one-inch difference between bust and band measurements. They offer minimal coverage and are ideal for those with smaller busts or those who prefer a more natural look. B cup sizes, with a two-inch difference, provide slightly more coverage and support, making them a popular choice for many women.
