A bra size of 36 is not necessarily considered large, as the number represents the band size and not the cup size. The band size indicates the measurement around your ribcage just below your bust, while the cup size determines the volume of your breast tissue. A 36 band size falls within a medium to average range, while cup sizes can vary from A (small) to K (large). It’s important to consider both aspects when determining if a bra size is considered large.
Common misconception: Many people believe that a larger band size automatically means a larger cup size, but this is not true. Band and cup sizes are independent of each other, so someone with a 36 band size might have a smaller or larger cup depending on their specific measurements.
Less-known fact: Understanding how different brands and styles fit can greatly impact finding the right bra for you. Not all 36 bras will fit the same way due to variations in design and construction. Knowing about these differences can help you find the perfect fit for your body.
The next step in knowing more about bra sizes is to get professionally fitted at our store or by an expert fitter. This will give you personalized recommendations based on your unique measurements and help ensure you find bras that fit comfortably and provide adequate support.
Remember, finding the right bra should be empowering and fun. Don’t be afraid to ask for assistance or try out different styles until you find what works best for you. You deserve to feel confident and comfortable in every aspect of life, including your undergarments!
