Ladies: Which of these seven different types of breasts do you have? and the right bra for yours

Just like our fingerprints, our breasts are as individual as we are – and should be treated as such.


Although they fluctuate up to six times in our life – not to mention the variations depending on where you shop – most of us probably kept abreast (sorry) of our band measurement and cup size.

But this may no longer be enough.

Breasts come in all shapes and sizes – and aren’t always as uniform a certain magazines and the advertising industry would have us believe.

There are seven very different types of breast, and there’s a corresponding bar for each.

So familiarise yourself below with your breast type below and dress your ladies accordingly – they’ll thank you for it.

1. Asymmetric

assymetric


assymetricMuch like we all have one foot larger than the other, most women have one breast larger than its mate.

But sometimes this difference is noticeable, and can even cause discomfort.

If this applies to you, then A bra with removable inserts / padding is the right choice for you. Because you can address any difference in size by removing the padding on your larger side.

2. East West

A t-shirt bra is best for you, as this will push your breasts in slightly, giving you an even outline.

3. Side set

side setThis is you if like East Westers your breast naturally fall away from the centre of your torso BUT – crucial difference – are  fuller.

You need something a little more dramatic than a t-shirt bra. Instead, try a plunge bra which will help pull your breasts both up and in.

4. Slender

slenderYour breasts sit on the smaller end of the scale, are longer than they are wide BUT are wider at the top than they are the bottom (still with us?) then don’t bother scrolling down. We found you.

A plunge bra will help lift and centre your breasts. If it suits your body shape and you feel like it, a bra with padding on the outer curve will provide a bit more drama.

5. Bell shape

bellYes, if you find your breasts are narrower at the top than the bottom, and fuller at the bottom than they are at the top.

Ladies with bell shapes need a fair amount of coverage and lift, as they tend to be more buxom than their Slender sisters.

Pretty as they may be, try to avoid balconette bras.

6. Tear drop

tear dropThese are considered the ‘quintessential’ type of breast. Typically, they are fuller at the bottom than at the top, but to the same extent that Bell shapes are.

Lucky you – not much! Your breasts will work with any type or style of bra so have some fun with your lingerie!

7. Round

round


roundIt’s a word which may you automatically associate with breasts, but some are in fact rounder than others. So, if your breasts are as equally full on the top as they are on the bottom then they’re round.

As far as these things go, you’re lucky. Due to your shape, you don’t need much in the way of support and can get away without underwiring and too much of a structured cup.

I hope this tip works out for you.
