Answer 6

The letters are your cup size and the numbers are the band (around you size

Answer 7

A is smaller than B. They're cup sizes. The 32 and 34 relate to the size of your back. Obviously 34 is bigger. However a 36 A is about the same as a 34 B, they're "sister sizes."  

Answer 8

Bra sizes are made up of two parts, the band size, which is the number, and the cup size, which is the letter. The band size is the size of your ribcage, where the band of the bra goes. The cup size is the relative size of your b*****s. This means that the cups are in proportion to the band, so a 32C will be smaller than a 34C or a 36C. A 36C will be equivalent to a 34D or a 32DD.

80% of women wear the wrong bra size, so most people don't have a realistic idea of what certain bra sizes look like. Most people think that DD cups are huge, but this is actually the average cup size. Since cup sizes are in proportion to the band size, the average cup size should be the same for each band size.

To find your bra size, measure horizontally around your ribcage, where the band of your bra will go, and round this measurement to the nearest even number. (Don't add any more inches to this.) This should be your band size.

To find your cup size, measure your bustline and work out the difference between it and your band size. For every inch difference, go up one cup size, so for example if your measurements are 32 and 33, you should need a 32A, 32-34 would be 32B, 32-35 would be 32C etc. The cup size calculation is less accurate than the band size calculation, so be prepared to try on a few different sizes.

Answer 9

A is the smallest bra size and it goes up form there. the numbers are your back size, you can measure this by wrapping a measuring tape comfortable just below your bust and that is your back size. You measure your cup size by measuring  around the fullest part of your bust and then subtracting your back size from that and then for instance if the difference is one inch then you're an A cup if it's two inches you're a B cup and so on.  

Answer 10

A and B are cup sizes

while the numbers 32 and 34 is the measurement around your body.

An a cup means your bust is 1 inch more than the measurement around your body a B cup means your bust is 2 inches more than the measurement around your body.
