I don't have any uploads yet but i did find & go through to see what type.
Pointy
Full on bottom
Wide root
Low nipples
Seperate
Narrow shoulders (always wondered why purses & straps etc fell off SO annoying!)
Low on chest
Pendulous

That said. ...how do i figure out from that description, what type of bra to buy? My current (read only) bra is tight atound the band, the underwire are lifted off my chest at the bottom (looks like boobage falling out if i bend slightly backwards) & doesnt fit on the sides either, rides slightly high in back, straps falling off shoulders, uncomfortable! Desperately need new good fitting bra asap! Lol i don't like to get dressed because the bra just doesnt cut it, so uncomfortable! Hate it!! I'm also very petite, have virtually no torso. 4'10"

  • Do you have any idea what size you are? what are your underbust and breast perimeter measurements?

  • Sounds like your shape is pretty similar to mine. The only major difference is that my breasts are high set, but I hear being petite can cause similar fit problems to high set breasts (like wires poking into your armpits, one of the most annoying problems ever). I don't think I have wide roots, but it can seem like it because my breasts are separate (splayed) and almost go into my armpits.

    The symptoms you're describing could be the result of too small cups and too large of a band. Cups that are too small can make the band feel too tight, and the band riding up usually means it's too big to stay in place around your ribcage. Have you taken any measurements yet? This website can give you a rough size to start with based on measurements of your underbust and your larger breast. There's also this calculator which I find overestimates me by about a cup size, but others find it to be pretty accurate. http://brasizecalculator.tk/
