Will a 36 C fit a 34 C?
For example, if you’re wearing a 34C and the cups fit, but the band is small, you might think “I’ll just go up a band size and try a 36C.” However, sizing up that way will likely result in cups that are too big because a 36C’s sister size is a 34D. The cups will still be the same size, but the band will be roomier.
What is the difference between 36 C and 34 C?
The only difference is the band size. The 36 is a bigger band size than the 34. Here’s an example of some other sister sizes. So all of these cup sizes are the same.
Are all C cups the same size?
The answer is yes. As the Bra band size (the numbers) increases so does the cup as it naturally gets wider to sit properly on the band. So if you wear a 32C and your Mum wears a 36C then her bra, her cup sizes and her breasts will be larger than yours. It’s all dependent on the back (band) size.

What is 34D bra size?
34 D is an average cup size but relatively bigger than B and C cups of equal band size. Cup size is determined just by the differences in the underbust and over the bust measurements. If there is 1” difference between the measurements it denotes an A cup, for 2-inch difference, it is a B cup and so on.
Do I need a bigger cup size or band size?
For every 3/4 inch of breast tissue under and behind the wire, go up one cup size. For every band size you go down, you should go up one cup. If you are in a 34D with a good cup fit, but want to go down to a 32 band, you would go to a 32DD for a tighter band with the same cup fit.

Is 34 D and 36 C the same?
A 34D is a smaller (inches on average) band and a larger (inch on average) cup than a 36C. Which means, if you are a 36 band it will be too tight, leading to chaffing and pinching. It also means if you are a 36C cup, your will not fill the cups properly (in general).
What is the difference between bra size 34C and 36C?
Bra Cup Size (cup volume) is relative to Bra Band Size; when Band Size increase (i.e from 34C to 36C US), the cup volume gets larger. A bra in size 36C has a bigger cup (larger cup volume) than a bra in size 34C (even though they both are labeled with C-cups).
How much support do C Cups need in Bras?
If you wear a C cup, the amount of support you need in everyday bras and sports bras can vary widely. Some women with C cups experience extreme discomfort if they don’t wear very supportive bras, while other women with the same cup size are comfortable with little to no support.
Are all bras made from the same Cup?
However, this is not the case. During the bra manufacturing process the same exact bra cup may be paired with different band lengths to create multiple bra sizes. For example, the same exact cup is used to make 38A, 36B, 34C, 32D, AND 32DD bras!
Is a C Cup the same as a D Cup?
A C cup is not just a C cup (or a D cup is not just a D cup, and so on)!

A bra in size 36C has a bigger cup (larger cup volume) than a bra in size 34C (even though they both are labeled with C-cups).
