A 38C. For a while I was quite thin, and then I wore a 32D. I've always wanted to be larger...my mother is a DD cup and I just grew up thinking I would be larger busted than I am now. For some reason, I like to wear sports bras as much as possible.

When I was a preteen, my friend's older sister told us if we wanted big boobs to drink lots of milk and never eat chocolate. I stuck with that diet for a pretty good while :lol:

34G is not very big. I would probably fit a 34G and my breasts are not large.

34G is not big. It's for 33" under and 42" in bust.
I have 42" too, but 28" under - it's 30J. Last year I had 27/44 and my size was 30JJ.

Interesting:
If men wanted to wear bras, it wouldn't be problem. Sizes like 38A, 42A, 44B etc. fit great!
Btw, 42A is also for 42" in - but 40,5" under :D

Best electronic brafitter in the world is here: http://www.atlastravel.nazwa.pl/mini/
It works in cms, but Google converts well if you type f.e. 42 inch in cm

I'm making bra-map for US and Canada :D

Ok, so how it works:

NUMBER is band size. It says how wide is one's chest. It should be measured tight, because fabrics are elastic. Band supports 90% of boobs weight. It makes a shelf for boobs. If it's too big, it won't hold. Bra is bust-holder, not bust-cover.

If you want to hold your boobs in your hands, you catch them from bottom. You don't pull the upper skin, do you? So bra also should keep it all from bottom, by band, not by straps. Straps aren't for support.

If someone has 70 cm under bust, there's no reason to wear band sizes like 85.
Choose smaller size, for 70 cm it's 65. Why? Because fabrics are flexible. Some brands make bras that stretch from 60 cm to 120 cm. How can it support? Right, it can't. So better choose brands that avoid stretchy fabrics. Stretchy fabric can only do harm.

CUP means a difference between band size and your boobs circumference. It should be measured loose and straight, on nipples level. Every inch (2,5 cm) is next letter. So D is only 3"/7,5 cm bigger than A.
Letter means how much boobs protrude from chest. It's like a triangle - and letter is height. Band is baseline. It's why 40D is much bigger than 30D. But it's only wider, not higher.
My favourite image:

How to use SIZE CHART

1. Measure your chest under bust. Do it very tight. Tape isn't flexible, but your bra IS.
Subtract 5 cm and equal down.
Example: your measurement is 77. 77 - 5 = 72 --> 70. Your band size is 70 (32).

2. Measure yourself in bust. Ask somebody for help, if it's a problem. Bend a little and measure straight on nipples level.
Example: your measurement is 99 cm.

3. See your size in chart.
Search 99 in 70 line. It's FF. So your bra size is 70FF.
If it's between, choose bigger cup.
If one boob is bigger and second is smaller, choose size for this bigger.

Oh ok. That was a load of information and I don't think I'll have any practical use for it unless I grow huge man boobs :lol:

Maybe one day you will buy a bra for your girlfriend? Men saying ooooooh, just like oranges, maybe bigger are really demotivating. And they're really not funny, they make fools of themselves.

Who buys bras for their girlfriend? If a guy buys one and it fits perfectly the girl would be like "have you been measuring my boob size in my sleep?" or "Have you stared so much that you know exactly how big it is?"

You're wrong. She will wear it and she will be happy that you care.

Bra in wrong size is useless and waste of time and money.
