it’s the cup of the bra, because it ‘cups‘ the breast. the size of the cup is basically how much room you need in it so it can cup the breast.
Furthermore, why are bras measured by cups? Bra cup sizes were first invented in 1932 while band sizes became popular in the 1940s. For convenience, because of the impracticality of determining the size dimensions of each breast, the volume of the bra cup, or cup size, is based on the difference between band length and over-the-bust measurement.
Also the question is, what does the 32 in bra size mean? Bra sizes are made up of two components: An even number that represents the band size (32, 34, 36, etc.), and a letter that indicates the cup size (A, B, C, etc.) determined by the size of the breast itself.
Considering this, which is bigger cup A or B? STEP 3: FIND YOUR CUP SIZE 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.
Also, is an A cup small? 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.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 is the difference between DD and E cup size?
However, the DD bra cup is smaller than the E bra cup in the UK.

It might seem confusing, but yes a DDD is the same as an F—at times they are labeled differently based on the brand. After size D you can either go up to size DD which is the bra size equivalent to size E, size DDD which is equivalent to size F, and size DDDD which is equivalent to size G.
