The biggest bra cup size, or the most widely available one, is a K cup, but obviously it's possible to be bigger than this. If you're measuring bigger than a K, it's most likely that you'll have to get your bras made by a specialist place.
For some reason, we have been brainwashed into thinking that boob sizes go from A-DD, DD being the biggest boob/bra size. DD is actually at the lower end of the scale, there is still E, F, FF, G, GG, H, HH, J, JJ, and K cup above that.
What about DDD sizes? DDD is most commonly used in the US, and converts to an E or F cup in UK sizes – one size up from DD. Many larger cup bra brands use UK sizing, so it's worth being familiar with how sizes convert.
Average Cup Size
According to a survey conducted between 1992 and 2013, the average bra size in the U.S. has increased from a 34B to a 34DD, and now just six years later, the average has shot up to a DDD — that's the largest compared to any of the other countries studied.
As cup size gets bigger and moves in alphabetical order from the letter A onward, the bra cups become deeper and wider. Cup size is measured by the bust measurement (including the breasts) minus the rib cage measurement taken just underneath the breasts.
If there's a 1-inch difference between bust and band you're an A cup; 2-inch difference is a B cup, 3 inches is a C cup, 4 inches is a D cup, and so on. For example, if your bust measurement is 37 inches and your band is 33 inches, you would be a D cup because of the 4-inch difference.
Contrary to popular belief, a C cup is not a large size. It is the most common size among women who have breast augmentation or breast implants. Having a larger chest isn't ideal for women since it can affect their posture and cause shoulder and back pain.
A study conducted by Berlei lingerie reported the average breast size across Oceania to be a C cup, the same as Italy, France and the UK. The most popular bra sizes in Australia are 14C and 12D.
Results showed that approximately 60% of men and 54% of women agreed that average-sized breasts are more attractive to them. Likewise, 49% of men and 52% of women concurred that a C cup is the ideal breast size, which is close to the average breast size of women in both the United States and Europe.
All you need to do is a little bra math: Subtract your band size from your bust measurement to find your cup size. “The difference in inches corresponds to your cup size,” says Iserlis. For example, if your bust measures 37 inches, and your band size is 34, the difference will be 3.
Before the days of Kim Kardashian, Sofia Vergara and Amber Rose, women had a thing about not wanting to appear 'too big'…and manufacturers realised they would sell more bras sized as DD rather than E, because alas, it sounds 'smaller'.
0 = AA <1 = A 1 = B 2 = C 3 = D 4 = DD 5 = DDD/E 6 = F 7 = G 8 = H.
In American bra size, A DDD cup is also called an F cup, which sits just one size above a G cup. It means that they differ by just one inch. A seven-inch difference between bust and band is a DDD or F cup.
A difference of 5.9 inches corresponds to a B cup, a difference of 6.7 inches corresponds to a C cup, a difference of 7.5 inches corresponds to a D cup, a difference of 8.3 inches corresponds to a E cup, a difference of 9 inches corresponds to a F cup.
They Break Records - The world's largest natural breasts belong to Annie Hawkins-Turner. She wears a 52I bra and they weigh 56 pounds each.
It turns out, over half of women polled thought a C cup was the perfect fit. At the same time, close to 26 percent preferred a B cup. Nearly 2 percent said an A cup was their preferred breast proportion. Notably, men also agreed that a C cup was their ideal size.
13 - 14 year old girls: Breasts become slightly larger during this stage as the glandular breast tissue develops. Average cup size: B cup. 14 - 15 year old girls: The areola and the nipple become increasingly raised, forming a distinct mound above the rest of the breast. Average cup size: C cup.
Generally, the A cup is considered the smallest available but for some this is still too big and compensating with a smaller band size won't help. If you want something that's going to fit your form you'll have to go down a level to an AA or even AAA cup. They're not easy to find in Australia but they are out there.
Most girls start developing breasts around age 10 or 11, and their bra size will continue to change as they grow. A 13 year old's bra size can range from a 32A to a 34D, so it's important to get fitted by a professional in order to find the best fit.
Everyone has a different body type no matter what age you are. I know someone that is that age with a D cup. It is totally normal to have a size 32C at that age.
A number of surveys and opinion polls have been conducted in the past to determine which is perfect boob size. In most of these surveys, majority of participants including men and women have voted in favor of C cup breast size as the perfect boob size.
