The cup letter "A" is bigger than the cup letter "AA" when on the same band size.

The letter "A" means there is a one (1) inch difference between the width of the ribcage and the width of the bust, while the letter "AA" meands there is a zero (O)inch difference between those two.

This does not mean that all AA cups are smaller than all A cups. The cup size means nothing without a band size attached to it. They are dependent on each other. Someone who wears a 32A means their ribcage equals 32 inches and their bust equals 33 inches (a 1 inch difference), but someone who wears a 36AA means their ribcage equals 36 inches, and their bust equals 36 inches. So the person wearing a 36AA has a chest that is 3 inches larger than someone wearing a 32A.

When Bras were first invented, they were only in letters A, B, C, and D, and only on a couple of band sizes. When people realized that not all women fit into such a small amount of sizes, they added AA before A, and DD after D so those smaller than the A and bigger than D could wear bras as well. Several decades later, we now have about 20 commercially made band sizes, and 18 commercially made cup sizes, for a total of about 360 different bra sizes. Smaller bands (such as 24 and 26) and larger cups can be custom made either by hand or from specialty companies.

Whats the biggest bra size?

my size :)


What bra size is the biggest?

A bra size is divided into 2 sizes, a number and a letter The number refers to the size of the fabric around the waist, this size is usually the same as a normal shirt size you would wear. It has nothing to do with your bust/ boobs. The second is the number, if until thus far you have been wearing a sports bra it would be better to start at an A. I know to you it may seem as though your breasts are very big, but they're probably not. When fitting make sure the wire is completely under the breast If it does not sit as tight as the fabric on the side go to a size B if it is to tight go a waist size bigger If your nippel is showing, the cup is to small, go bigger If there is no pain and no discomfort and your breast is looking perfect-ally round from the sige, You have just found your bra size. First, the band size DOES have something to do with your breasts. It is used to figure out your cup size. And just because someone wears a sports bra, doesn't mean they should start with an A cup! This statement is ridiculous! Also, if the band of your bra is around your waist, you definitely need a breast lift! "If it is too tight, go a waist size bigger"???? lol! The answer above was obviously written by either a very young person with no knowledge of bras and sizing, or a guy...with no knowledge of bras and sizing! To answer your question of what bra size is the biggest, bras can be custom made to any size. However, once you get to the really large cup sizes, like a F cup and beyond, they become hard to find in stores. I wear a 36N and have to order my bras online, as no stores carry that size.


What is the average teen's bra size?

I doNt know the average, but I am 16 and my bra size is 34B and my girlfriends is the same ( i an a bisexual)


Average bra size?

Average American female bra size is 34B. Average European female size is 34C!Seeing as most women are wearing the wrong size bra, normally because they are measured in the old fashioned way, most women are wearing bra with bigger band sizes than what they need and smaller cup size than ideal. Recent research and theory suggests that the average size for women is around 34DD (rather than 36B as some have claimed). This reply isn't much different to the one above but it's something interesting to note. The average is harder to determine as 8/10 women are wearing the wrong size. lol
