Shape explains what size cannot: why the same letter gapes on one person and spills on another. This category holds the taxonomy, the quiz and the style matches.
- The shape identifier quiz: four questions, no photos.
- Styles for every shape: all 8 matched to constructions.
The 8 shapes at a glance
- Round: Equal fullness on top and bottom, holds shape without support.
- Teardrop: Fuller at the bottom than the top, gentle slope above the nipple line.
- Bell: Slimmer at the top with substantial bottom fullness, often heavier.
- East West: Nipples point outward, tissue sits toward the sides.
- Side Set: Wide space at the center, fullness carried to the sides.
- Slender: Longer than wide, less bottom fullness, often smaller cup volumes.
- Asymmetric: One side noticeably larger; extremely common and completely normal.
- Relaxed: Soft tissue with more downward direction, nipples sit lower.
Every shape has styles that fit beautifully; none is a problem to solve. Pair your shape with your measured size and the fitting-room odds change completely.
