Relaxed breasts are one of the many common breast shapes. Let's go through what relaxed breasts are and discuss some of the best bra styles for relaxed boobs.
Understanding Relaxed Breast Shape
A relaxed breast shape usually indicates breasts that have loose or thin breast tissue with nipples pointing downwards. Relaxed breasts tend to have less breast density and a softer, longer shape than other breast shapes as they have less skin elasticity. This breast shape tends to be common in older women, as your skin and ligaments lose elasticity with age and can begin to sag.
Relaxed breasts are similar to bell shaped breasts in that they are longer and hang lower than other breast shapes, but they are different in that they tend to be fuller at the top than the bottom. They are also similar to slender breasts in that they are an elongated breast shape, but are different in that they usually have nipples that point downward.
Importance of Proper Bra Selection
Like any breast shape, wearing the proper bra is crucial. Not every bra style will work perfectly for every breast shape, so it's important to determine your breast shape to learn what works best for you. A bra that works well for asymmetric breasts or athletic breasts might not work well for relaxed breast shapes.
Best Bras for Relaxed Shaped Breasts
If you have a relaxed breast shape, certain bra styles will likely work better for you than others. There are a few different bra types we recommend for this breast shape.
A go-to style for relaxed boobs are seamless T-shirt bras. These bras create a natural, rounded appearance with no harsh seams. Underwire bras are also a great option for relaxed breasts. Underwires comfortably lift, shape, and support the breasts to create a more uplifted, rounded shape. A plunge or balconette style is also a great option if you want a lower neckline that will help give your cleavage an added boost. Padded bras are also always an option for a fuller bust appearance.
These are a few Glamorise bras that we recommend for relaxed breast shapes.

Tips for Bra Fitting
As breast shape and size can both change with age, it's best to remeasure your bra size at least once a year to ensure your perfect fit. A perfect fitting bra will provide the comfort and support you need.
Whether you have a relaxed breast shape, athletic breast shape, round breasts, or east west breasts, take your cup size and band size measurements at least once a year to ensure you have the perfect fit. Simply take your bust and band measurements and plug them into our Bra Size Calculator which will do the rest.
Final Thoughts
Relaxed boobs are one of the many common breast shapes. If you have this boob shape, look for styles like T-shirt bras and underwire bras that offer extra lift. Regardless of your breast shape, having a bra that fits well is key to being comfortable and supported.
