1. How small is a cup size A?

Bras come in different band sizes and in different cup volumes. Cup size A is one of the smaller cup sizes available. Other small cups are AAA and AA.

A teenager’s first bra can be a cup A. But a grown-up woman can also have a cup A (or smaller).

Bra sizes can be very close. And you cannot just say cup A is smaller than cup B.

For example.

✔ a woman is wearing a 40C bra. She is not happy with the cups, they are too big and she finds the band size a bit too tight.
✔ going up a band size would be a 42 band. When going up a band size the cup volume will automatically change too.
✔ A 42C bra has more cup volume than a bra in 40C. So this woman has to go down at least one cup size. She might wanna try 42B and 42A.

2. What happens if I change the band size?

I own bras in 3 different sizes ( 34AA, 34A, and 36AAA – and they all fit me just fine. Depending on the type of bra and the brand I choose different sizes.

Remember that bras have sister sizes.

Especially if you’re in between two possible band sizes you could well have different cup sizes that fit you just fine. For example, a bra 80A has the same cup volume as a bra 75B.

3. What is the smallest bra size online?
