Last Updated on March 23, 2022 by Sarah Keene

A DD is a cup size smaller than an E (assuming you kept the same band size i.e and 32DD is smaller than a 32E). DDD is where it gets confusing, some brands don’t run that size (here in the U.K., anyway) so a DDD would be equivalent to an E.

In this regard, is bra cup size E bigger than DD? 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.

Moreover, is an E cup the same as DD? In the US, the DD bra cup is the same as the E bra cup. However, the DD bra cup is smaller than the E bra cup in the UK.

A breast measurement 5 inches larger than the band size is a DD and a breast measurement 6 inches larger than the band size is a DDD. Some European brands do have E and F cups. And there is some variance in sizing among the brands.

Likewise, what is the largest cup size in a bra? The Guinness World Record for largest natural breast size is 48V.
