There’s an unimaginative old joke about bra measurements: B = Barely There, E = Enormous, G = Get a reduction, etc.
Likewise, what cup size is bigger DD or G? 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.
Also the question is, is bra size G the same as DDD? 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. Our bra sister size chart above can tell you your sister size all the way to bra size 38I.
Also know, is FF bigger than g? Each step is a full cup, they are NOT half cup sizes. So a G is larger than an FF.
Furthermore, how much do DDD cups weigh? DDD cups usually weigh around 5-6 pounds, which is roughly 2.5-3 pounds for each breast. This is about 20-30% heavier than DD breasts and 50% heavier than D breasts.
What is my correct bra size?
Measure loosely around the fullest part of your bust. Subtract the band size from this measurement. Use this number to determine your cup size according to the table below. Example: if your ribcage measurement is 31, and your bust measurement is 37, your bra size is a 34C: 31+3=34, so 34 is your band size.
What is the average bra size?

What is after DDD?
BRA SIZING But, once you reach sizes larger than a D, confusion starts. Most American manufacturers go D, DD, DDD, DDDD. Many European manufacturers go D, E, F, and so on. Manufacturers from the United Kingdom tend to size D, DD, E, F.
How do you convert grams into cups?
To convert a gram measurement to a cup measurement, divide the weight by 236.588236 times the density of the ingredient or material. Thus, the weight in cups is equal to the grams divided by 236.588236 times the density of the ingredient or material.
What is the largest cup size in a bra?
The Guinness World Record for largest natural breast size is 48V. Annie Hawkins, also known as Norma Stitz, wears a U.S.-size 52I bra, but based on her measurements — she has an 109.22-centimeter (43-inch) bust and 177.8cm band measurement — she should be wearing a 48V.
What is 36F equivalent to?
What Are Sister Sizes? Sister sizes are groups of bra-size equivalents that are related by cup volume. For example, a 36F (DDD) cup belongs to the same family as a 38E, a 40D, and a 42C.
What does a 40C bra size mean?
The 40C cup size breast tissue is spread over a wider chest area and therefore will look like a small bust. Whereas the 30C cup size will look much bigger as the breast tissue is over a much narrower chest.
What is difference between DD and E cup?
Cup size is the same between U.S. and Europe/France. “A” cups (U.S.) = “A” cup in Europe/France; B=B, C=C, etc with some exceptions for “DD” and “DDD” cups. Many European brands (and some American brands) use the lettering “E” for a DD cup size and “F” for a DDD cup size.
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. DD cup = E for full figure bras, DDD = F, but if you are used to buying a standard bra that comes in cup sizes B-DD and no higher, there will be about a half cup size increase between the DD in a standard style and a DD/E in a full figure style.
What is Triple D bra size?
AA(Double A) is the smallest cup size, then it goes up to A, B, C, and then D. After D you can either go up to DD(Double D) or its equivalent E, DDD(Triple D) is the next cup size which turns to be the equivalent of F. Once you hit F/DDD you continue to go up letters like what was done before.
What is the smallest bra size?
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.
