Breasts come in all shapes and sizes, with everybody being unique, and there’s no right or wrong way to have them. However, your breast shape is key in finding the best bra for comfort, support and style. If you have a relaxed breast shape, this article has you covered. We’ll delve into what relaxed breasts are, how to accurately determine your breast shape and explore the best bras for relaxed breast shapes.
Relaxed breasts have lax tissue and nipples that point downwards. This shape has less elasticity in the skin and ligaments that support them, causing them to be lax or droop. Relaxed breasts are characterized by having a naturally lower position on the chest. They also have nipples that point downwards and longer breasts that tend to hang, a sign that gravity has bestowed its gentle touch, creating an overall relaxed silhouette. Relaxed breast shape is often caused by aging as the perkiness of yesteryears is shed, and the delightful duo settles into their natural state. However, other factors such as weight loss, pregnancy and genetics could also be causes.
Understanding your breast shape goes a long way in picking a bra style and finding the perfect fitting bra. Stand in front of a mirror and observe your breasts. Take note of the position of your breast on your chest. Pay attention to the distance between the crease beneath your breast (the inframammary fold) and the nipples. If your breasts exhibit a lower position with most of your breast tissues below the fold with the nipples pointing downward, you are looking at relaxed breasts. The breast will also have less firm tissues as you touch and feel them.
The perfect bras for a relaxed boob shape should provide enough lift and support to prevent sagging and bouncing. They should also shape and smooth your breasts for a more rounded and flattering silhouette. Bras with short cups are a favorite companion for these boobs as they offer more fullness at the top. Seek bras with sturdy underwire and well-constructed cups for upward projection and shaping, especially for achieving that sexy cleavage. Moreover, the bra band should be snug to ensure that the weight of your breasts does not pull your bra down. Adjustable wide-set straps are also essential to distribute the weight evenly and prevent discomfort.
