How is it possible to go down in band size? E.g. 34 to 32?

May 1, 2016
Asked By:AFlat in United Kingdom, GB

I have seen some reviews of BAs on this website reporting that they have gone down in band size, for example going from a 34B to a 32C. Is this down to weight loss? I don't understand how the rib cage could change that much in size?? If anyone can enlighten me on this as I'm not really clued up on bra sizes, I'd be grateful! :)
