Preconceived Notions About Breast Shape?

As I continue my great bra-fitting odyssey, I'm starting to question my breast shape. I mean, I always assumed that oh yeah I have wide, spread apart boobs that are shallow and full on the bottom. But then I have bras like the Tempt Me and Elegance do odd things on me, leading me to believe the cups are too wide and/or too shallow. And then the Meg Balconnet looks ...ok?

Curious, I did the breast shape quiz at HerRoom, even though I read a post by Bras I Hate talking about how HerRoom made her want to punch a seagull. While I found some of the wording to be annoying, I found the boob illustrations to be quite enlightening, as I picked the ones that closely resembled my own. The end result? HerRoom tells me I have splayed breasts with an outward pointing apex, and narrow/sloping shoulders. But not shallow, or bottom heavy but not full on top either. Hello boobs, what shape are you? I guess it doesn't matter as long as maybe I can find a fitting bra :)

  • Yes it's a good test if one doesn't take their advise to seriously and if one overlook their negative language.
