The bra size DD means that your band measurement and bust measurement have a difference of 5 inches. To determine your bra size, you need to measure around your ribcage just below your bust to get the band measurement, and then measure around the fullest part of your bust. For example, if your band measurement is 36 inches and your bust measurement is 41 inches, then you would wear a DD cup size.
A common misconception about bra sizes is that a larger cup size always means bigger breasts, but this is not necessarily true. The letter in the bra size represents the difference between the band and bust measurements, so a DD cup could look different on different body types. It’s important to focus on finding a bra that fits well rather than getting hung up on specific cup sizes.
An interesting fact about bras is that many women are actually wearing the wrong size without realizing it. This can lead to discomfort and lack of support.
