A size 6 in bra sizing refers to a band measurement of 28 inches and a cup measurement of AA. This means that the band around the ribcage measures 28 inches, while the difference between this measurement and the fullest part of the bust is only half an inch, indicating a very small cup size. A size 6 bra is designed for individuals with a petite frame and small bust, providing minimal coverage and support.
Many people mistakenly believe that all bra sizes are created equal across different brands and styles. However, this is not true, as each brand may have slight variations in their sizing charts based on their specific designs and materials used. It’s important to always refer to the sizing chart provided by each individual brand when determining your correct size.
An interesting fact about bra sizing is that it was first introduced in the early 20th century by Ida Rosenthal, who revolutionized undergarment fitting by introducing cup sizes A through D. Knowing this history can help you understand how far bra fitting has come and appreciate the importance of finding a properly fitting bra for your comfort and health.
