Morphology

itty + bitty + titty + committee

The phrase combines clearly interpretable parts: 'itty bitty' (very small) + 'titty' (breast) + 'committee' (group), so the overall humorous meaning 'a group of women with very small breasts' is directly derivable from the constituents. Although colloquial and playful in register, the composition is literal and predictable, so a B1 learner who knows the component words can infer the meaning.

Etymology

The phrase itty bitty titty committee plays on the children's rhyme 'itsy bitsy' and joins titty, a slang word for a breast, with committee, meaning a small group. The funny image is of a tiny group talking about 'small breasts', so people use the phrase jokingly to say they belong to that 'group'.
