What Is the Most Common Breast Size?

Woman in a red bra, measuring the size of her breastsSince 1983, the average cup size has gone from a 34B to 34DD. With nearly 300,000 breast augmentation procedures performed in 2013, the desire to increase the size of the breasts does not look like it will be fading any time soon. Although breast augmentation surgery may seem like the most common reason for the increase in average breast size, there are other factors that have played a role in this change.

Weight Gain

While many women spend most of their lives combating weight gain, there’s no doubt that the average weight of females has increased over the years. This overall weight gain directly affects the size of the breasts, causing them to naturally be bigger.

Clothing

Numerous clothing companies have altered how they size women’s clothes over the years. For instance, a dress that was a size 14 in the past may exist as a size 12 today even though it isn’t any smaller. Many bras are also constructed with more padding to make even the smallest breast sizes look bigger, thereby increasing overall breast size when measured. In addition, more luxurious and fashionable bras were previously unavailable in most larger sizes, and now that they are, women with larger breasts are buying their correct sizes.

Celebrities

It’s no surprise that some of the most famous celebrities have had plastic surgery to increase their breast size. To attain a look that is similar to their favorite celebrity, some women decide to undergo breast augmentation surgery.
