Brit women 'the most shapely in the world'

If a new survey is to be believed, then British women are the most shapely in the world as they have bigger boobs and their backs are more slender.


The best-selling UK bra cup size is a curvy DD while the most common underbra size - the measurement around a woman's ribcage - is 34 inches, a global study has revealed.


But while UK has the likes of 34D Geri Halliwell, 34DD Holly Willoughby and 34E Kelly Brook, other countries can average only a B cup.


In Germany and Italy that is combined with a 38-inch underbra size, in France it's B and 36 inches and in Japan and China B and 34 inches, the Triumph international 'Bra Usage and Attitude Study' found.

"We might be getting fatter as a nation, but women's cleavages are expanding too. That's a challenge for bra manufacturers - but good news for British men," the Sun quoted nutritionist Lowri Turner as saying.

The study also found the average British woman's chest and hips are now 4 cm bigger than in the 1950s.

The average woman is almost 2 ins (5 cm) taller at an average of 5 ft 5 ins and her weight has risen from 62 kg to 65 kg.
