Is 38C the same as 40B?
From a size 40B wearer, A 38C is absolutely not the same/equivalent to a 40B. That’s like saying a size 8 wide shoe is the same/equivalent to a 9 medium! 40B is a difficult size to find and comes in limited styles.
What is the cup size on a bra?
To determine the cup size: Subtract the band size from this measurement. Use this number to determine your cup size according to the table below. Example: if your ribcage measurement is 31, and your bust measurement is 37, your bra size is a 34C: 31+3=34, so 34 is your band size. Since 37-34= 3, you’ve got a C cup.
How do I calculate my bra size?
Follow these bra fit steps
- Measure your band. Wear a lightly lined (non-push-up) bra so your breasts are as close to natural as possible.
- Now measure your bust. Place the tape at the fullest part of your bust.
- Subtract the band size from your bust size to find the right cup size. Every inch equals one cup size up.
Which is better, a 38C or a 36D?
They are definitely not the same size. The 38C will be better if her back is slightly bigger around (under her boobs) and her boobs aren’t quite as big compared to her body. If she has bigger boobs compared to her back size, then 36D is better.
What’s the difference between a 38 and a 36D bra?
Theoretically they have the same cup volume. The band size 36 vs 38 is theoretically 2” larger in the 38 bra. The cup has a slightly larger base with less projection. So if you wear a 36D bra you will show more projection than when wearing the 38C.
Which is larger a 32D or a 36D?
With this on mind, 36D is considered large not just because of the D cup but also the size of band. The cup size differs with the change in the band size even if it is the same D cup or B cup or any cup. The cup size increases with the increase in the band size; hence 36D’s cup is larger than 32D’s cup. Likewise 36D is smaller than 40D.
Which is bigger 34D or 38C breast size?
But, since 36C is 1 band-size larger and at the same time 1 cup-size smaller than 34D, the real volume of the cup is the same, likewise for 38B, 32DD, 30E, 28F etc. This is called “cross grading”. It is always the same cup volume, so the actual size of the breast is the same.
