Tape measurements that give 34B

Computed by the Bra Atlas engine with the measured-band method, and checked by running each pair back through it.

Underbust and bust for 34BThese are examples from our measured-band rule; other calculators can round fractional measurements differently.

Our +4 comparison gives 38AA for 34 in underbust and 36 in bust. With an odd 33 in underbust and a 35 in bust we print 34A/B; our fixture-backed model of calculator.net's unpadded row gives 34B. How the +4 and measured-band methods work.

What is particular about 34B

What our +4 comparison returns

A 34 in underbust and a 36 in bust measure 34B on the measured-band method. Our +4 comparison pads the band to 38 in, leaving 36 − 38 = −2 in. Using AA for a difference below 1 in gives 38AA. It has the same sister-size volume index as 34B, but its band is 4 in longer.

A small step either way

If a 34B band rides up, 32C is one band tighter with the same cups. If it digs in, 36A is one band looser. Both keep the cup volume of 34B.

The same in the UK and US

On the Victoria's Secret and Wacoal international charts, UK 34B is US 34B. Our conversion model also keeps 32C, 36A and 38AA unchanged. M&S's US column differs: UK 34B becomes US 34A, 36A becomes 36AA and 38AA becomes 38AAA. Check the UK row when using that M&S table.
