So I went to Victoria's Secret last night...

And the official "bra measurer" was trying to tell me that a 32D is the same as a 34C or large 34B because of the cup size to circumference ratio. My initial reaction was "no way" but I didn't have time for a test run.

 

Anyone?

[Tracy]

No sure about being the same as a 34B.........but I have been told several times that a 34C is same as 32D, with minor differences. I wear a 34C, but was told I should be wearing a 32D because I'm a little smaller around and I fill the C a little much. Dillards, VS, and Penney's people said that....about them being the same.

[Naive]

Well I usually wear a 34D but I aldo fit into a 36C. They are bout the same. If you increase the size of your back you just decrease the size of your cup. Do I make sense?

[tiki]

Makes sense to me. As long as they ain't all hangin out and crap, you should be fine. Sounds like all the same jive to me.

[Naive]

Yeah it also depends on the style of the bra. There are some bras that fit better on as a 34D and other fit better 36C. When I want my jugs to be all the way to my neck though I go for a smaller size.

[savethedrama4allama]

Yeah i just imagine my back fat being shoved into the cup area. It seems like its not right.

[lydiamarie]

so there are two ways to increase the volume that the cup will hold: either going up a cup letter or up in band size. (so a 34C will cover less breast than a 36C)

 

it took me a long time to convince a close friend of mine that her 36C bras didn't fit. the cup size was fine but the band didn't touch her below her breasts. finally she tried on a 34D and, lo and behold, it fit perfectly.

 

my 32C/34Bs (for those of you who do the bra math now) are a bit envious. just a tit bit.

I wear a 34 D or 36 C, too, depending on the bra. I like the bigger size in 'firmer' fabrics and the smaller size with stretchier fabrics. Squeezing into a 36C can produce quadruple-boob, though. Not nice. And back fat happens with the 34 if it's not stretchy enough. I think I need a 35 D.

 

I checked out a website called spanx.com - NO it's not like that! - it looks interesting. They have a bra that has no closure and it's made completely of nylon. Could be comfy, could be hot. Anyone tried it?

I still wish they were bigger. I mean 34D is not bad, but it runs in my mom's family to have 'em huge. My sister has a 36DD and mines look like two bee stings next to hers!!!!!!

okay you really suck now!!

I accept it I do!

[shortbus74]

I would love to have big boobs......(I have ant bites)

 

flaunt them for me....................

[Wolvesbaned]

OK people please explain this to me. For some reason I never knew about the band/back fat thing

 

I understand the cup size & going down a cup while increasing the size yields the same-o bra size but the band and back fat?

 

Also, gravity takes its toll after awhile... will switching to a different band(?) help?

 

Anyone... anyone???
