Choosing the right bra for small breasts

Small breasts need support no less than large ones. If you do not choose the right underwear, then the bust after childbirth, due to age or due to hormonal changes, will drop prematurely, lose its elasticity and become like “spaniel ears.”. There is also a high likelihood of asymmetric ptosis. For these reasons, it is vitally important to learn how to choose bras skillfully.

What size is small?

The issue is controversial, there is no consensus. The only thing we can say for sure is that thin women with breast sizes zero and one have modest shapes. Regarding the second, it is no longer possible to come to a common decision. For some, this is an ideal that does not interfere with activity and does not increase the load on the spine. For others, a “two” is akin to a “one” and requires the same approach. To others, the “troika” seems to be something ordinary and inexpressive, requiring additional volume and “spice.”

Important! How many people - so many opinions.But we must remember that beauty does not always go hand in hand with curvaceous figures. Small breasts may look appetizing, but large breasts may look repulsive. And linen plays a decisive role in this matter. It can both correct and hide flaws, and emphasize or create the illusion of dignity.

Principles for choosing a bra for “one” and “zero”

You can’t do without fitting for a number of reasons:

1. Firstly, not all manufacturers adhere to a standard size range.
2. Secondly, you should check the fit of the product. This is necessary, since small breasts can be wide, incredibly dense, drooping, asymmetrical, and narrow; The height of the nipples also matters.

AND in each of the listed cases, the bra requires its own functions and characteristics. In some places, support from below is more important, in other situations – moving to the center, in others – increase. And don't forget that some lovely girls need wide-spaced straps or a reinforced back of the bra due to a few extra pounds.

Taking measurements

Precision is the basis of success. To get reliable results, ask another person to participate in the event. You will have to find out the girth under the bust and the girth of the chest (place the tape on the most protruding parts of the bust). Then subtract the smaller value from the larger value. If the difference is 10 or less, then you are shown an AA bra (zero), but in fact, the result of “8” with a wide back or chest already requires a C or D. 12 cm is a one. Over 13 is an application for “B” (second size).

Belt size

To define it, you will need to know the circumference under the bust, and then check the table of Russian sizes.If it is not at hand, then subtract 15 from the resulting girth. This is a very inaccurate method, but in extreme cases you can use it.

Important! If you have small breasts and a thin build, do not apply the rule that belt length = underbust circumference. Subtract 15 cm or use correct, not outdated tables, otherwise you will have to tie the back straps due to their excessive length.

No to kits

In adult girls with miniature breasts, and especially in women who have experienced the joy of motherhood, the pelvis is often much wider than the bust. This leads to a number of problems with purchasing ready-made sets of linen. Either the top or bottom doesn't fit. Either the panties are too small or the bra is too big. Rather than sacrificing one for the sake of another, it is better to compose sets yourself. Fortunately, underwear manufacturers produce separate panties and bras, which, when combined, look like a single set, as if they were originally sold together.

Chest width is our “everything”

To explain this thesis, let’s take a girl who, when taking measurements and calculating the difference between them, received 8 cm. According to the theory of a wide bust and back, bras C and D should suit her. The choice between these two options should be made, first of all, based on how much chest wide apart. The higher this indicator, the higher the chances that our lovely stranger is shown in size “D”, and the smaller – the better, as you already understand, it will fit on a “C” body..

Important! Narrow chest – when the overall width of the chest is not wider than its base. Wide chest - if the width of the chest is wider than its base. Close-set breasts do not equal narrow breasts.A close-set bust is a chest whose right side is located less than 2 folded fingers away from the left. It’s narrow and pushed back from the sides.

Cup size is based on waist circumference

For this reason, 60 C and 75 C bras look completely different. The 75 C has a much higher, wider and more spacious cup, although it is also “tseshka”.

Therefore, a girl who needs a 75 belt, if the fit of the C 75 bra is loose, will most likely need to take not “C”, but “B”. In “C” it ​​will “sink”.

“Distracting” and masking elements in a bra

Take a closer look at models with the following characteristics and elements:

• diagonal cup;
• front clasp;
• tabs;
• supporting lace ribbon at the top of the cup;
• decorative folds on the cups.

Which models will be the most advantageous?

We recommend models that solve a number of pressing problems in the form of:

• strongly protruding nipples;
• lack of cleavage;
• insufficient volume;
• high density or, conversely, the absence of it (as a result, the chest becomes similar to “spaniel ears”).

In this case it is necessary avoid models whose bones are not located where they should be. This problem usually occurs due to the bust width not being taken into account. But for girls with close-set breasts, it is sometimes difficult to choose a push-up.

Cause: in most cases, sealing inserts are located at the bottom and sides (crossing “horseshoe”). Due to this, the breasts literally collide with each other. But with a close-set bust and sloping cups, there is no need for unnecessary movement to the center. Because of this, even miniature breasts will slip out of the bra, or at least show nipples out of place.

Important! Very modest, but wide breasts often require bones not on the bottom, but on the sides.

Angelica

The cup is an open, cut-off type, the design of which “collects” the breasts from the sides and bottom and tries to move them to the top. May not be suitable for girls with high nipples. Everyone else will note the excellent fit and the ability to wear any clothes, even very tight ones and with the most revealing neckline.

Balconette

A round, low cup covering ½ or ¾ of the mammary glands. The lower cut is solid and horizontal, reinforced, and there are usually three cuts on the cup. It looks attractive due to its collecting and lifting effect. With this bra you can wear open wardrobe items.

Corbeil

“Smart” modification of Angelica, minimalism in its fantasy embodiment. The cup is compacted, shortened, supports and moves the breast upward. Raised and open mammary glands form mounds that would not be able to form without underwear. The straps are wide apart, as are the cups. The pressure on the bust is where it needs to be.

Adhesive silicone

A solution for small and very dense breasts, for which it is very difficult to choose a push-up. Product will hide protruding nipples and add a little volume, but will not be able to become your daily companion.

This is still a one-time solution for a very thin or open dress. This option is not always suitable for creating a hollow between the breasts. The latter will appear only if the bust is larger than zero.

Molded cups + underwire + lace insert over cups

If you take a regular molded cup, then the same problems will appear with it as with a push-up cup. That's why take a closer look at the models whose straps are not just thin straps, but lace ribbons that widen towards the cup. Due to them, the bra will move less away from the body and fit better to it. The underwires in this set will not allow the product to ride up (if the bust is very small) or will act as a supporting element that gathers the top.

Sports without fastening on the back

Ideal for those involved in sports that require exercise while lying on your back. Often it has very wide or simply wide cups, which takes into account the chest characteristics of a large number of girls with miniature shapes.

Correctly placed cups do not pinch on the sides and fit well to the body.

Important! Sports bras come with regular clasp placement, as well as without it at all. For ladies with neat but wide breasts, this particular location of the hooks is recommended.

Seamless

It has no clasp or separate elements. Calyxes may or may not be present. The good thing about this model is that it fits the body and doesn’t slip off. One of the disadvantages is the high jumper. She will not allow you to wear shirts or anything else with a low neckline.

Without cups

Bold decision. An option for those who do not dream of breast enlargement, but simply want to look decent and beautiful. Frills and lace, special designs will slightly adjust the size and become a “highlight” that catches the eye.

What about push-up?

The model “works” due to breast lifting inserts. If they are placed in the wrong place or the breasts are too small, then you will not be able to look beautiful, and the bra itself will cease to provide any useful function.

Results of wearing such underwear:

• If the fit is insufficient due to the density of the bust and its size, the bra will begin to puff up on top and move away from the body.Its thickened edge will be noticeable. As is your attempt to increase volumes.
• If the inserts are placed incorrectly, the breasts will not lie as intended. Lifting and compression will begin to go in the wrong place, due to which the bra will not be able to solve either aesthetic or functional issues.

Important! If you have a “null”, then choose a bra with small pads. Due to this, if its upper part puffs up, it will not be critical. And be sure to try on the item before purchasing. During the procedure, do not forget to look at how the bra “behaves” when the torso is tilted, as well as when worn with things made of very thin knitwear.

Another feature of push-up: Most manufacturers of this model believe that the first breast size is the prerogative of slender and very slender women. It’s difficult for a plump girl with a one or zero to find a push-up bra that fits her well. Often you have to sacrifice something. Either take larger cups than you need, or buy products with short rear whips. Because of the last point, we so often witness how the bra literally “cuts” the back.

This problem can be solved by a long search for “your” brand. (wide belts with small volume-increasing cups are produced by Elomi, Goddess, Emperinte) or avoiding push-up. But it’s worth saying right away that bras of this type for plump girls with small breasts are more expensive. Simply because the product is not widely distributed.
