Really shallow breasts

I am not a teenager any more but there are days where I just hate the shape and size of my breasts. I hate how small they are, and my shallow shape just makes them look even smaller. Other people have effortless cleavages while I struggle to even look like I have boobs.

I feel like a fraud every time I walk into a bra store and want to try a new size. Those bras are clearly too big for me and I will just humiliate myself by trying on them. People won't even believe me when I feel that a bra is too small for me. Almost all of the bras I tried have wires too narrow, and naturally I look like I can't fill the cups. My breasts are shallower than the vast majority of people on here who say that their breasts are shallow. I look way smaller than I measure, that the pictures of Bra Band Project look like a joke to me. People who are two or three cups smaller still look bigger than me.

To be honest, I am not really sure what this rant is about. But I just want to have 'normal' shaped breasts that have 'normal' projection, breasts that are closer to the manufacturers' standards. I suppose.

  • Hi Gummy

    If you look at the Breast Shape project, and not the band size project, you will realize that you are indeed not "normal." Why? Because no one is "normal." Or rather, we're all normal, including you. Why in heck would you be humiliated in a lingerie shop or department? Read through the adventures here and you will see almost all of us have fit issues. Don't let a salesperson try to intimidate you--always feel sorry for the ones who are badly trained because they just don't know any better. Poor things. Once you find the right size and style for you (and that might mean making alterations!), you will be far more knowledgeable about the MOST important customer--You.

    And oh, wanna see MY gorgeous cleavage when I'm not wearing a bra? Look at my waist--that's where it is!

  • I'm also shallow for my shape and I don't look as big as my size either... What size are you at? Have you tried bras aiming at your size and shape? You've added a 8E bra, which implies that you're on the smaller side of the "larger cup brands". That is usually quite tricky as most larger-cup brands aim at a deeper shape. There are brands specifically aiming for a shallower shape. You have Only Her for example. The Freya Deco Moulded Half Cup Bra (4232) is also known for working better in these sizes (while the regular Deco plunge is extremly deep and narrow instead).
