After 38B, the next bra size would be 40A. It’s important to note that when moving up in band size, you also need to adjust the cup size to ensure a proper fit. This means that going from a 38B to a 40A would result in a slightly larger band and a slightly smaller cup.
It’s crucial to understand how sister sizes work in bra sizing. Sister sizes are alternate sizes where the cup volume remains the same despite the different letter and number combination. For example, if you find that a 38B is too tight around your rib cage but fits well in the cups, then trying out a 40A may provide more comfort without compromising on the cup size.
Common misconceptions about bra sizing often lead people to believe that if they move up or down in band size, they should also adjust their cup size accordingly. However, this is not always true as sister sizes allow for slight adjustments while maintaining the same cup volume.
One less-known fact about bra sizing is that different brands may have slight variations in their sizing charts. This means that it’s essential to try on bras from various brands and not solely rely on one specific size across all brands. Knowing this can help prevent frustration when shopping for bras and lead to finding the perfect fit more easily.
Now that you understand how sister sizes work and have learned about potential variations between brand sizing charts, I recommend trying on different bras within your sister size range to find what works best for you. Finding the right fit is essential for comfort and support.
