34b Bra Size
One of the most commonly bought bra sizes is 34b. It is also considered the ‘true cup’. In traditional and standard bra sizing, the ‘true cup’ size indicates a 34-inch band. Therefore all 34-inch band cup sizes are considered true cups. For example, a 34b cup size is a true b, a 34c cup size is a true c, and so on.
The True Cup Norm and the 34b Cup
Bra sizing standards are old and outdated. But the lingerie community still follows them. There is debate about whether the bra - 34b should be the norm because many women consider it so.
Setting a 34b size bra or any size for that matter as a true cup creates an unrealistic expectation of women’s bodies. Experts say that the problem with true cup sizes is that a lot of women feel the pressure to fall under that category. A 34b cup bra and 36c cup bra are considered true cup sizes and most women wear these sizes without even measuring themselves! Therefore, setting a bra size as ‘the’ ideal size is problematic.
