What Does 30D Bra Size Mean & What is its Equivalent?
What is 30D Bra Size?
Women who wear 30D bra size measure 30 inches on the band and 34 inches on the bust. 30D is not a common bra size.
You may be thinking that a D cup is a large bra size. However, this is not always the case. The cup size varies as the band size changes. Therefore, a 34D cup is larger than a 30D cup.
Coming to sizing, a 30D bra size is similar in size to 28DD, 32C, 34B and 36A. However, while the cup sizes of these bras are almost the same, it’s their band sizes that make them different. A woman wearing a 30D may have the same breast size as one wearing a 28DD. However, what will make them different is the bone structure. The one wearing a 30D has a larger bone structure than the one wearing a 28DD.
While 30D are in the D cup zone, the breasts are not very large. However, they may look large on a woman with a flatter stomach or slender figure.
How Do 30D Breasts Look Like?
30D breasts can easily fit in a hand. However, the breasts may appear big or small, depending on things such as the bra that a woman is wearing, the type of clothes worn, and the shape of the body.
For women whose lower half is larger than their upper half, the breasts look smaller since they are overshadowed by the size of the hips. On the other hand, the breasts look larger on women that have a flatter stomach.
For women with an ‘apple’ shape, i.e., they have more flesh around their stomach, 30D breasts are almost unnoticeable. On the other hand, the breasts appear larger on women with slender bodies.
30D Natural Breasts and Implants
30D breasts look larger on women with flat stomachs and those with slender bodies. However, when compared to standard breast sizes, 30D is actually not so large.
Naturally, it is not common to find women with 30D breasts. This is because women that have a small body and whose band size is 30 do not have a lot of body fat that will make the breasts large. This is why some women with 30D breasts opt to get breast implants to get a fuller bust.
Still, it is common for women with smaller breast to get implants to reach 30D breast size rather than those with 30D breast size to get implants.
Women with a ‘pear’ shaped body can get implants to balance the shape of their lower half. If you are going for implants, stick to two cup sizes within your original size. For instance, if you are a 30D, the best implant size for you would be 30DD or 32E. Keep in mind that if you have 30D breasts, your frame is small and the body does not have a lot of fat. Therefore, going more than two cup sizes up will make the breasts look unnatural.
On the other hand, women with small breast sizes, such as 30B or 30C can opt for augmentation up to 30D to achieve a fuller bust.
How to Make 30D Breasts More Prominent
30D breasts look different depending on your body shape, the type of bra you are wearing, as well as the clothes. If you want to make the breasts more prominent, wear a push up bra with a tight-fitting T-shirt.
On the same note, 30D breasts appear larger when viewed from the side on women with a flat stomach and those with a small frame.
On the flip side, for women that have more flesh in the middle (i.e. ‘apple-shaped’ women), the breasts are barely noticeable as they are overshadowed by the size of the flesh around the chest area.
