cup sizes

Letters for fit

Cup sizes are standardized measurements for bra cups, indicating breast volume relative to band size.

The scale typically runs from A through D and beyond, with letters increasing as cup volume increases.

The system varies between countries and manufacturers, making consistent sizing notoriously difficult: She's a 34C in one brand but a 32D in another.

Cup size also refers to standard volumes for cooking measures or drink containers.
