Our ‘Agate’ and ‘Queen’ bras would be the finest options for women who fall under this type.

‘Agate’ gives a modern and versatile look and its underwire gives the required support to your breasts. Additionally, ‘Queen’ creates a dramatic effect with a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap.

Wide-Set

Wide-set breasts have more space in-between them. In this scenario, you must opt for a bra having supportive side wings which gather breast tissue and move it towards the center of the cup. For small to average size breasts having a wide-set shape, we recommend you to pick a plunge or push-up bra to center your breasts and magnify the cup size.

‘Safaron’ and ‘Fable’ bras would be just perfect for this type of breasts. ‘Safaron’ has a deep V plunge and is seamless as well as wireless. Then, ‘Fable’ is an exotic push up bra that offers complete comfort and luxury to your breasts.

In this situation, one breast is usually larger than the other. In order to overcome the size difference worry, you must opt for stretch cup bras as they contour your breast shape very well. Bras with molded cups are designed for busty sizes and help in concealing the size difference between the two breasts. One quick and easy solution is to consider a bra with removable padding.

You just have to remove some of the padding from the cup which have a larger fit and it will do the trick! Our ‘Athlete’ bra is just what you want. It is a full coverage bra with removeable cups and promises absolute comfort and style at the same time. In other options, you can also check ‘Heat’ as it offers soft yet stretch-free cups that would offer a uniform shape to uneven breasts.

Round Breasts

Round shape is more usual in women who have larger cup sizes. In this scenario, getting a wrong bra can lead to the spillage of cups by the underwire. In order to avoid the tightening of the large breasts, you should look for styles with deeper cups to assist the breast volume. Our ‘Premium’ and ‘Nourish’ bras would best serve this purpose.

‘Nourish’ is a super soft bra taking the weight off of your shoulders and provide utter comfort to your body. ‘Premium’ is a seamed and non-padded bra that will offer you a great support and fitting. It comes with a slim-high center panel that provides extra support and no bounce!
