if a 32C fits you but is hard to find affordably, going up a band size is not going to help you at all. cup sizes are relative to band sizes, so a 32C and a 34C have different cup volumes. look for your sister sizes. 34B is your best bet.

with 34 C's I always uy ones with 3 hooks and put it on the smallest one. It rides up high on my back though. I was told 34 on the last rack is a 32. But it makes my tanks tacky ecause everyone can see it's way high. I had a B34 before. But it bbroke at the straps. Idk if I did that or maye the cat... But I couldn't use it any longer. I got a junior 34C that has been with me 4 years and it's still good though. I never use the women's one's those are large. But I use the smaller ones usually. I can see what will work and what won't. B 34 usually looked like it would but they rise up and leave a minimum of coverage. It's not like an A but it's not like the C32 I tried either really.

If you measure 28 inches around your ribcage, you should be wearing a band size 28. Victorias Secret does not measure correctly and anyone that tells you to add 4 or 5 inches is not measuring correctly. It does not matter what country you are in.

But if you are determined to wear 32Cs, just order from Victorias Secret online. Plenty of their lines come in 32C.

I know what fits me well. 30 I can't even breathe properly... I check my bands before I try on the cup. I did that with a 32. bput it on the last rack. My rib cage can't handle anything smaller than a 30...

When you are used to wearing a loose band the correct size band feels small and tight. You get used to the snugger fit. You will be able to breath fine.

Absolutely true. I had been wearing an incorrect band size for years, and finally took the time to get a proper fit. I had been wearing 40 or 42DD, after being sized (at a high-end department store), I find I'm a 36-38 G. Yep. G. Or, as my DH sez, a 38 Good Golly! If you think a 32A is expensive, come live in my world a bit. I cannot buy a bra for less than $50.

no it's not lose. I've let others see me in C32 bras and 34's for that matter. Everyone agrees it looks right. I don't elieve my cups could fill out a D or DD for that matter I've tried in as small as 32 D and it was too much kinda like B is too little.

all the C32's I've seen have all been at least 40 bucks it seems. 32A is quite easy to find. My mom uses them instead of 30B's for a reason...

Then you're not looking very hard. VS has a whole line of bras available in 32C for $30 or two for $50 or less. And you can shop sales at any department store or search eBay. It's definitely not the most abundant size, but it's not hard to find with just a little bit of work.
