A 38E bra size typically means that the band measurement is 38 inches, and the bust measurement is around 43 inches. This translates to a well-fitted brassiere for someone with a larger bust size and an average underbust measurement of 38 inches. To find the perfect fit, I would recommend getting professionally measured by one of our expert fitters using a measuring tape specifically designed for bras.
Many people mistakenly believe that cup sizes are consistent across all band sizes. However, this is not true as cup sizes are relative to band sizes. For example, a 34C has the same cup volume as a 36B or a 32D – it’s just proportioned differently based on different band measurements. It’s important to understand this concept in order to find the right bra size.
It might interest you to know that E cups are considered larger than average, but not necessarily “extra-large.” There are several other larger cup sizes like F, G, and even H cups available at our store for those who need more support. Understanding this can help in finding your perfect fit based on your individual needs and preferences. The next step in knowing about bra sizing is trying on different styles and brands to find what feels most comfortable and supportive for you – don’t hesitate to ask our staff for their recommendations. And remember, finding the right bra size can make all the difference in how you feel and look – so take your time until you find the perfect fit!
