Most people distinguish between a small breast and a large breast and are unaware that there is a huge range of options between these two types of breasts. Shape, fullness, texture and certain circumstances such as weight loss or pregnancy are characteristics that should be considered when talking about the types of breasts that exist.
However, there are perfect garments for all breasts, so from we talk about the 10 types of breasts that exist and we show you images so you can identify yours more easily.
What types of breasts are there?
You may have heard of bulky breasts, small breasts, sagging breasts or even elevations, however, there are many types of breasts that differ by their tissue, elasticity, shape, fullness, etc. If we analyze all these traits, we can distinguish between the following 10 categories:
- Large and bulky chest
- Small chest
- Round chest
- Asymmetrical chest
- Chest East West
- Bell-shaped chest
- Chest in tears
- Sagging chest
- Athletic chest
- Tubular breasts
The lifestyle of each woman, as well as the support she uses and genetics are fundamental factors that influence the formation of one type of breast or another. Each breast is different and has different characteristics, however, there are garments and sizes for everyone and finding the one that is most comfortable and flattering is a matter of time … from we help you!
Large, bulky breasts
Large busts are characterized by an abundance of fatty tissue and by being bulky. While it is true that there are exceptions, almost all large breasts are symmetrical and fall slightly due to their weight, even those firmer.
In the face of an excess of breast volume, women may have problems not only aesthetic but also health problems (poor posture, breast and back pain, greater premenstrual discomfort, etc.), so in case of any discomfort or doubt, we recommend you go to a specialist doctor.
A fundamental tip is that the bra you use holds the chest well but without squeezing it excessively; the most important thing is that it covers the entirety of your breast well. A piece of clothing? Dare with the V-shaped and heart-shaped necklines!
Small breasts
Small breasts are characterized, unlike bulky ones, by having very little fatty tissue. Normally, the size of the nipples and areolas adapts to the chest and they are also small, although there are 9 different types of nipples that you can have.
If you have little fat tissue and want your breasts to look bigger, you can always opt for a bra with a little padding and pushup. However, bralettes are perfect for girls with very small breasts, so don't hesitate to get some that suit your style. Bet on the maxi necklines or the asymmetrical ones… you will love them!
Round breasts
Round breasts are regular and slightly bulky, although their size may vary depending on each person. They are characterized, mainly, by being as full at the top as at the bottom and by having little space for separation.
The heart-shaped necklines, the boat necklines and the round ones look fabulous with this type of chest.
Asymmetrical breasts
Have you ever been alarmed because one of your breasts is bigger than the other? Do not worry, because it is one of the most common types of breasts, although the difference in size between the two will vary greatly depending on each person.
We all have a larger chest than another (as with the eyes or hands), however, people with asymmetrical breasts have a greater difference. In this case, we recommend you bet on the necklines of word of honor, asymmetrical, heart-shaped and Bardot.
Breasts East West
This type of breast is distinguished because the nipples point in different directions; again, it is a very common type whose difference will depend on each person. A variation of this type of breast is the lateral, which has the same characteristics but with a more pronounced space between the breasts.
In these cases, the shape of the breasts resembles that of a pear, which is why we recommend a word of honor neckline or the Bardot. As for bras, those that incorporate a ring will be the best for you, as they will help you center your breasts.
Bell-shaped breasts
This type of breast is characterized because the upper part is narrower and the lower part much wider, similar to the shape of an eggplant. In this type of breasts, the nipples are usually large, as well as the areolas.
If you also have this type of breasts, we recommend you choose a bra with hoops and bet on a halter neckline or a square one.
Teardrop-shaped chest
Teardrop-shaped breasts are large, rounded breasts, especially on top. Its name comes from the fact that these breasts, slightly elongated, fall a little.
If you have teardrop-shaped breasts, do not hesitate to use a push up those lifts them and a closed neckline; avoid the word of honor but opt for square or V-shaped necklines.
Sagging breasts
It is a very common type of breast among elderly women and women who have gone through one or more pregnancies and have breastfed. They are characterized by being breasts that do not have elasticity and that have little musculature, as well as nipples that usually point to the ground.
In these cases, from we recommend you to wear a triangular bra with some filler or a push up that enhances your breasts.
Athletic breasts
Athletic breasts are characterized by being wider than thick or long and more muscular than the rest. In addition, this type of breast has less tissue than the others, so it slightly resembles the shape of small breasts.
Bralettes, as well as bras with a little padding, will give a much more enhanced look to your breasts.
