Q. Why do bras that are the same size sometimes look like they're actually different sizes?
A. A band measurement is dependent on the physical properties of the material used. A garment containing materials with more stretch may be shorter than a garment with more rigid materials. All styles are not designed to measure the same, but they are designed to fit the same body type with specific measurements.
