How much does the shape of your breast affects your bra size?

Question

I am a 32D, and I fit perfectly well in my bra but people tend to think I'm closer to a B. My friend is a 36B, and her breast look literally 3x the size of mine even though she technically has a sister size. I don't get it, volume wise, shouldn't we be about the same?  We do have different boob shape.

This other girl is 32B and she appears to have the same breast size as me. Yet, I have tried 32C, and really,there's no way I fit in those. Sometimes 32D is too small and I do wear 32E/34D when needed.

Why is that so? Do I actually have less volume than them?

Honestly it depends on the brands of the bra 32, 34, 36 ect Measures around you it doesn't effect the cup size at all, some companies like Walmart brands aren't correct sizes, Victoria secret will give you the correct size and there bras are actually correct, for the longest time I thought I was a 34B but i got measured at Victoria secret and I'm a 32D

One of you isn't wearing the correct size bra ... the each cup size is an additional inch.

"Measuring band size

There are two ways to measure your band size. The best bet is to do it both ways to see if you get a consistent measurement.

1. Bring the measuring tape around your back to the front, keeping it under the arms and bringing it up across to the middle of your chest

If you get an odd number, round up to the next even number to get your band size.

2. Measure across the bottom of your band, directly under the bust and across your ribcage. Make sure to keep your measuring tape straight around the back to front.

Again, if you get an odd number, round up to the next even number to get your band size.

Measuring cup size

1. Measure loosely around the fullest part of your bust, with the tape straight across and around your back, bringing it to the front.

2. Subtract your band measurement (from step 1) from this bust measurement.

The difference calculates your bra size- each inch represents a cup size.

For example, if you measure a 34 inch band size, and a 36 inch cup size, the difference is 2: which would indicate a B cup."
