Women typically have one of five basic body types: hourglass, pear, apple, rectangle, or triangle. Lingerie is designed to accommodate each of these shapes but does so in a somewhat different way. Here are some suggestions if you’re seeking looks that complement your particular measurements perfectly:
Hourglass
Work those curves, baby! Look for underwear with a high-rise waist and leg. Your legs will appear longer as a result, and your full hips and slim waist will also be highlighted.
Pear
Pears often have smaller breasts and a booty to make you envious. They are very supple and well-shaped. When paired with a full brief and a fuller-looking bra that evens out the proportions, these measurements look wonderful.
Apple
Low-rise pants look fantastic on this body type. If you want to add copious quantities of eroticism to the way you wear your underwear, look for a knicker that sits straight along the lower hipline.
Rectangle
This classic tomboy body type looks amazing in almost anything. However, it can sensitively carry the minimal appearance in extremely “barely-there” clothing, when most other body shapes may struggle.
Triangle
A plunging bra is absolute perfection on this body shape and gives your curves a sophisticated boudoir vibe. Deep-V necklines draw the eye in towards your bust and minimize your broad shoulders. Your appearance will be entirely on trend if you use a more streamlined brief.
Tips to find the perfect-fitting bra:
- Since it offers 80% of support, your under band must feel sturdy but comfortable, without digging in or leaving red marks.
- Your bra’s back should match up with the front. When your bra is brand new, attach the loosest hook.
- Not too high under the arms with the cups.
- The bra’s cups should snugly fit your breast; there should be no wrinkling or overspill.
- There should be no prodding or rubbing of the wires against your body.
- The center front panel of your bra should rest flat against your body.
- The natural posture of your breasts should be supported; this is often halfway between the shoulder and the elbow. If required, reposition the straps.
