The smallest bra size commonly available is 28AA.
Understanding the Smallest Bra Sizes
While 28AA is generally considered the smallest bra size widely produced, some specialist retailers cater to even smaller cup volumes and may offer bras with an AAA cup. This indicates an extremely minimal difference between the bust and band measurements.
Deciphering the 28AA Bra Size
A bra size, like 28AA, provides crucial information about its dimensions:
- Band Size (28): The number "28" represents the bra band's length, which corresponds to the measurement around the ribcage directly under the bust. In this instance, it signifies a 28-inch band.
- Cup Size (AA): The "AA" indicates the cup volume. For an AA cup, the bust measurement (taken around the fullest part of the chest) is less than one inch larger than the ribcage measurement.
Understanding these components is essential for finding a well-fitting bra, regardless of size.
