Stuff.Co.Nz – 17/03/2009:

New Zealand women are getting bigger breasts, with D cups and bigger accounting for nearly half of Bendon bras sold in New Zealand last year.

Though the C cup is still the most popular bra cup size, sales of D to J cup sizes have increased by 53 percent over the past three years, compared to a 2 percent increase in the sales figures of AA to C-cupped bras, according to Bendon figures.

The figures were calculated based on sales of Bendon, Fayreform and Elle Macpherson Intimate ranges of bras.

Fayreform “braologist” Carol Rashleigh had seen steady growth in breasts over more than two decades of helping women into fitting bras.

    I’d be a great braologist.

  2. Rugland says:

    I wonder how the ammount of new breast implants in New Zealand compares to this…..

  3. Comacho for President says:

    How is that good news? They are getting fatter, just like in America. It is just a marketing technique masquerading as a survey.

    No link?

    4. “No link?

    Thanks!

  6. rakarich says:

    What about overall weight size? Has that increased as well? If a woman gains weight, so do the boobies.

    (kind of unfair to guys. If a guy gained weigh and his “junk” became thicker… every guy would strive to be the next Capt. Lou Albano!)

  7. Personality says:

    This means one of two things (or both). 1.They are getting fat. 2.The country’s average age of women is dropping and they don’t know how to purchase a bra properly. Most women in the world don’t know how to buy a properly fitted bra. (I saw a fashion designer say that on tv once)

  8. QB says:

    Obviously we need empirical evidence. Any volunteers to go collect data?

    Gode I love tits.

    Why you have have this unbearable compulsion to comment on this story? I don’t even have anything constructive to say….

  11. prophet says:

    Whoops…I meant to say why do **I** have this unbearable compulsion…..

    We’ve got two F cup gals in the office. Both are under 5’5″ tall and weight in around 450lbs! One has three sets of F cups… hahahaa

  13. Dallas says:

    As a result of hormones in the food supply, I’m pretty sure New Zealand men are getting bigger breasts too.

  14. Ron Larson says:

    Too bad the girl is the photo is Czech, not a Kiwi (her name is Veronica Zemanova).

    #14 Dallas nailed it. I wonder if this study also measured puberty ages of NZ kids and see if they also drop over the same time period. If so, that is a strong indicator of something in the diet. Bovine growth and lactation hormones come to mind.

    # 14 Dallas said, “As a result of hormones in the food supply, I’m pretty sure New Zealand men are getting bigger breasts too.”

    More likely overall weight gain. I don’t think cattle are given human estrogen. I could be wrong.

  16. Mr. Fusion says:

    Sure, big tits are great to look at, but more than a handful is a waste. Then there are those who are really practical and believe more than a mouthful is a waste.

  17. bugeyemonster says:

    how many people googled “how to immigrate to new zealand” after reading this article?

  18. Angel H. Wong says:

    Fatter women = bigger tits.

  19. Paddy-O says:

    #19 Yep. Looking at an old HS yearbook. Out of hundreds of girls there are only a couple that aren’t thin. Go to a mall today, most teen girls are overweight by quite a bit. My wife has mentioned this several times recently.

  20. Personality says:

    fat fatties

    One of my sisters here at the convent:

  22. jopa says:

    That’s it! I am moving to new zealand.

  23. deowll says:

    There are a lot of estrogens and pseudo estrogens around unless they are just getting fat. This is not growth harmones unless they’re getting taller and their shoe sizes are going up too.

    None of this would be doing the guys any good either.

  24. Peterg says:

    Their sheep are getting jealous.
