The evolution of the bra has led to the creation of several different styles.
Choosing the right bra is not just a matter of size—it’s also about body shape, breast shape, and the desire to feel good in your lingerie. Whether you have a petite figure or a fuller bust, there’s definitely a bra type made for you. Follow this guide to find the model that will highlight your silhouette without compromising on comfort.
Know Your Bra Size
Before searching for the perfect bra, it’s essential to know your exact size. Most women wear an ill-fitting bra without even realizing it. Take your measurements or get help through our personalized fittings: measure your underbust horizontally and your bust at its fullest point. Once you know your size, you can focus on finding the ideal bra shape for your body type.
Which Bra for a Small Bust?
The advantage of having a smaller bust is that many styles are available to you!
- Triangle bras are perfect for a natural and delicate look.
- Push-up bras add a lovely curve and a bit of volume if desired.
- Lace bralettes are charming and comfortable with a boho touch.
The most important thing is to choose a style you love.
Which Bra for a Full Bust?
For women with a fuller bust, support is key when choosing a bra. There are bra styles designed for larger busts, which you can find out more about in our dedicated blog article.
- Full-cup bras are your best ally thanks to their covering cups and reassuring structure.
The full-cup bra is very different from the half-cup bra, one of the most common styles.
- Underwired bras help distribute weight evenly without feeling constrictive.
- Minimizer bras visually reduce the size of your bust.
Wide straps, reinforced backs, and technical fabrics are your best assets for combining comfort, aesthetics, and support.
Which Bra for Your Breast Shape?
Beyond size, the shape of your breasts can influence your bra choice. Here are a few tips to help you choose:
- Round and firm breasts: balconette or demi-cup bras enhance your natural shape.
- Pear-shaped breasts (more volume at the bottom): go for full-cup bras that center the bust and offer good support.
- Wide-set breasts: choose a plunge bra that brings the breasts closer together and creates a deeper neckline.
- Sagging or less firm breasts: full-cup or well-structured underwired bras are your best allies. Moulded cups are also a good option to give your bust a nice shape.
- Asymmetrical breasts: opt for soft cups that visually balance your silhouette. Bras with removable pads are great—you can take them out when not needed.
