Side set breasts, often characterized by a contour that leans slightly towards the sides, can either be a natural occurrence or a result of breast reconstruction. They typically exhibit a more prominent gap between them, allowing for greater visibility of the chest and ribcage, especially if you have a wider-set ribcage.
Cup sizes can vary significantly with this breast shape, influenced in part by your torso and ribcage configuration. Nipple orientation, while diverse, should not be a cause for concern, as they can point in various directions or may even be repositioned through reconstruction.
At Coobie , we celebrate the beauty and diversity of all breast shapes. Our mission is to empower you to embrace and love your unique breasts, and confidently choose attire that suits your individual style and comfort.
How Do You Know If Your Boobs Are Side Set?
Determining if your breasts are side set often revolves around their placement rather than their size or shape. Side set breasts typically exhibit a wider gap between them at the center of the chest, with breast tissue that appears fuller and nipples oriented forward.
So, if you notice a significant space between your breasts with nipples facing frontward, you may identify your
breast type
as side set. This characteristic may still be present, regardless of whether you have smaller or larger breasts or
whether
they appear bell-shaped or flat. In some cases, individuals may develop side set breasts, even after breast
reconstruction,
with well-positioned nipples.
Ways to Uplift and Support Side Set Breasts
Embrace Plunging Necklines
If you have side set breasts and are concerned about the gap between them, consider embracing it. Plunging necklines can be your best friend. They accentuate your beautiful décolleté, adding a touch of allure to your style.
To ensure you have the support you need, look for bras designed to complement plunging necklines, such as our Halter Neck Criss Cross Plunge Bralette 9128 . This bra not only provides the necessary support but also features a plunging neckline and a sexy back lace detail to keep you feeling confident and secure under your clothing, without the worry of any wardrobe malfunctions.
The Coobie Classic Floral criss-cross bralette is a stylish choice, perfect for those with side-set breasts. With its high neck and halter design, this bralette not only adds charm to your look but also caters to your specific needs. It features padding and lace mesh, ensuring maximum comfort and breathability.
The easy-to-put-on, take-off design and adjustable fit make it a versatile choice, ideal for side-set breasts. This bralette is completed with removable cups, providing natural shaping and an instant confidence boost. It's a wardrobe essential that you won't want to be without!
Opt for Bras with Higher Cut Armholes
It might seem counterintuitive, but selecting bras with higher cut armholes can offer added confidence and help control the positioning of your side set breasts. For instance, our Lace Coverage Cami Bra 9050 is a great choice.
It features a sultry plunging neckline while offering higher sides to provide the necessary structure for a side set chest. This combination not only enhances your style but also ensures that your breasts are well-supported and positioned comfortably.
An indispensable addition to any wardrobe, our cami bra offers excellent versatility, making it an ideal choice for layering. The lace front extends above the seam, creating an eye-catching detail that pairs beautifully with low-cut tops or dresses.
With its seamless and wire-free design, this cami bra ensures a soft and smooth feel against your skin, proving that you can enjoy both style and comfort simultaneously. Plus, it comes with removable and adjustable shoulder straps, making it a complete and adaptable cami shelf bra for your needs.
Opt for Full-Coverage T-Shirt Bras
When it comes to side set breasts, full-coverage t-shirt bras can be your go-to choice. We suggest trying the Spaghetti Strap Wireless Bra 2.0 802N if you're looking for a t-shirt bra with a plunging neckline . This style offers a smooth appearance under clothing while catering to the needs of side set breasts.
For those with fuller cup sizes, the Comfort Bra is an excellent option. Both of these bra styles are designed to provide a comfortable fit for all-day wear, ensuring your side set breasts are well-supported and enhancing your silhouette under a t-shirt.
We're excited to announce the return of the Coobie Spaghetti Strap Wireless Bra , now available in three fantastic options: soft as a feather, versatile function, and fuller support. This brand-new and improved no-show bra is crafted from lighter and stretchier spandex fabrics, offering enhanced moisture-wicking properties and a cooler, lighter feel.
We've made it even more convenient with easier-to-remove and adjustable straps, allowing you to adapt your style effortlessly. With wider bands, you can say goodbye to any rolling up issues, ensuring that your comfort and support last throughout the entire day and night. Plus, we've expanded the size range to accommodate more body shapes and sizes, making this bra even more accessible and inclusive.
Steer Clear of Underwire
Underwire bras may not be the best choice for wider chests as they can often result in an ill fit and discomfort. In an attempt to find underwire cup sizes that accommodate the width, you might end up with bras that are larger than your actual size, leading to gaping and bulging in less than desirable areas.
Additionally, techniques like the 'bend over and scoop' can sometimes push the breasts into a shape or position that doesn't feel natural and can leave you feeling uneasy. For a more comfortable and flattering option, we recommend trying the V-Neck Lace Trim Bra . It's a fun, flirty, and sexy choice that beautifully complements side set chests without the discomfort of underwire.
Introducing the Coobie V-neck bra with delicate lace trim :
this bra is not only stylish but also exceptionally lightweight, incredibly comfortable, and versatile. The beautiful lace trim along the front collar adds a touch of elegance, allowing you to flaunt it under tanks, dresses, or low-cut sweaters, or you can opt for a more discreet look - it's just the right amount of sexiness for any occasion.
No matter how you choose to wear it, comfort is guaranteed, just like with all Coobie bras. Our one-size-fits-most option accommodates sizes from 28A to 36DD, featuring removable straps, while the full-size option fits sizes from 38A to 42DD with fixed, adjustable straps providing three times the extra support. Both versions come with easy-to-remove pads and a tagless (scratch-free) band for your convenience.
Opt for Padded Sports Bras
While not essential for every occasion, sports bras can be an excellent choice to provide the support you need, especially for side set breasts. These bras eliminate the need for structured molded cups and restrictive underwire, making them a comfortable alternative.
Consider padded sports bras or sports bras with removable padding, such as our Front Zipper Sports Bra 9005 . These bras are well-suited for side-set breasts and come with removable modesty pads, offering the support you need even during rigorous physical activities, while ensuring a comfortable fit.
Step into a new realm of breathability and flexibility with our groundbreaking front zip bra ! These innovative designs are equipped with front zippers, ensuring a hassle-free experience when putting them on or taking them off, all while delivering unbeatable support and comfort throughout your workout.
Crafted with premium materials that excel in ventilation, our sports bras are tailor-made for demanding physical activities, offering the essential breathability to keep you feeling cool and dry.
Thanks to their high elasticity, these sports bras provide an impeccable fit that moves harmoniously with your body, ensuring the required support and flexibility for all your exercise needs. Count on it, our sports bras are destined to become your top choice for any workout routine.
Conclusion
Side set boobs are actually quite common, and it's essential to recognize that every individual's breasts are unique. Perfection is an unrealistic standard, and at Coobie, we celebrate diversity by embracing one breast, two breasts, no breasts, or newly reconstructed breasts in all our collections.
Feeling different doesn't mean you are, and we firmly believe that 'Different is Beautiful' in every sense. Our hope is that this message empowers you to love and appreciate your body and chest, regardless of their shape, direction, or size, because, in our eyes, all chests are beautiful.
