Bra size

Hi

Sorry this is abit embarrassing. Ive never really got measured before, I was wondering if you can help me

I ordered a bra online, size 30AA.. and the cup size is perfect but its too tight. I asked on the online live chat and the operator said the next size up would be 32AAA. I thought it would be a 32AA .. as its just a bigger band I need. Wouldn't AAA be a different cup size?

Thank you in advance

They’re right. The band and cup size are related to each other.

Sorry, pressed post too soon. The description of the cup size is different but the volume of the cup will be the same.

When I lost weight around my ribs but not my boobs, I went from a 32E to a 30F. If I’d gone the other way and needed a bigger back size, I’d have gone from a 32E to a 34DD.

Ah thank you for explaining that! Makes perfect sense now! Glad I asked. Just wanted to be sure before I go and buy another bra

No worries! Bra sizing is utterly bizarre. Hope you find something suitable.
