Breast Shape Types

Countless genes make each of us very different, so we should not take it for granted that there are only so few breast types, and then force the girl in. Know the shape of your chest and choose the style that suits you best.

1. Round

Equally full at the top and bottom
Fit tips: Most styles will work well for your shape, but try a wireless bra for days when you only want light support or a balconette style when you want an ultra-flattering fit

2. East West

Nipples pointing outward in opposite directions
