Body type considerations when buying bras
To get the best bra possible for your wallet and body type, make sure to check out this list of budget-friendly options from Wacoal’s many collections, all sorted based on the most common chest and hip shapes in fashion.
1. Rectangular body shape
The rectangular body type generally refers to people whose bust, hip, and shoulder measurements are similar or the same width. A rectangular silhouette can also be referred to as an athletic body type since many athletes usually sport this kind of vertical shape as well.
For this form type, you’ll want to explore Wacoal’s line of sports bras to improve your performance as an active and athletic person. With broad under-bands, wide side panels, and soft but sturdy shoulder bands, these sports bras will change the game and prevent strain so that you can focus on your activities properly.

2. Apple or oval-shaped body shape
This next form type on the list can be identified by a rounder, apple-like silhouette, with a fuller and well-balanced bust-to-waist ratio. With this form, your legs might be smaller in comparison to your chest area, leading to a more oval shape overall.
If you want to pick the proper bra for this kind of body shape, then you’re in luck. You can explore all different sizes and styles, because of all your enviable curves. But for the best-looking bust, you should go for a well-fitting balconette bra to draw attention upwards and balance out your silhouette.
With lower cups and wide-set straps, balconette bras will generally enhance your cleavage, lift your bust area, and give you sexy confidence all day long. Go for a multipurpose balconette style when you explore these options from Wacoal as well:
- Multi Way YLB4702: Php1,195
- Basic Strapless YLB5257: Php1,200
- Classic Strapless VB5802: Php2,650
Not that interested in this style? The good news is that you easily modify the straps of these multiway lingerie pieces so that you can enjoy a multitude of experiences with just one product.
3. Hourglass body shape
The hourglass type boasts an incredibly contoured silhouette, with a wide bust, narrow waist width, and wide hips. Your hip and bust measurements should be nearly equal in size, thus forming the highly desirable curves of the hourglass look.
This form is sought after by a lot of bra wearers, because of all the gorgeous curves you can show off with this type of look. As the saying goes, if you got it, flaunt it - and no undergarment style is more fitting for this than the bold and audacious push-up bra.
Wacoal’s push-up lingerie pieces are a must-have since they offer a lot of extra lift to your bust line. This style will help to enhance your natural assets and highlight your beautiful curves, while also providing much-needed comfort for everyday life. Here are some of the best push-up pieces on the market for this brand right now:
- Push-Up IB3216: Php1,750
- Enchanting Lace Push-Up SB3227: Php1,995
- Instant Icon Push-Up 853322: Php3,450
Flaunt that bust with pride and go for a push-up piece today to show off your natural curves and contours too.
4. Pear- or triangle-shaped
This next shape is reminiscent of a pear or an upright triangle because of the ratio of your chest, waist, and hip dimensions. If you happen to have this shape, you probably have a bust or shoulder width that is markedly slimmer or smaller than your hip width, thus forming the iconic triangular form type.
If you have a pear-shaped silhouette, then you’ll want to show off those full and curvaceous hips at all times. This means that you can generally wear whatever bra makes you feel comfy and confident, to match the confidence that those bodacious curves can give you daily.
Looking for a bold and flirty top to match your voluptuous hips? Then you should invest in a lacey bralette to elevate your confidence today. Bralettes are usually designed for fashion and style rather than heavy support, with non-wired under-bands and lacey designs. Express yourself confidently with a pear silhouette through these pieces:
- Gaia Lacey Comfort Fit IB3215: Php1,495
- Mood Lacy Comfort Fit MM1X65: Php1,695
Want more options? Then make sure to keep an eye out for more product releases in the future to discover the best undergarments for your unique needs.
5. Inverted triangle shape
Last but not least on this list of body types is the inverted triangle shape. Think of this look as the opposite of the pear silhouette. With an inverted triangle shape, your shoulder and bust areas are usually wider than your waist or hip areas. Your legs are also usually smaller than your shoulder area, leading to an inverted triangular shape.
If you’re rocking this fun body type, then you’ll likely be looking for a top that snugly supports your wider chest area. Want comfort and style at all times? Then you should upgrade and invest in high-quality bras that are dedicated to maintaining day-long comfort, like Wacoal’s own Gococi line of comfort undergarments:
- Gococi Comfort Fit CGG540: Php1,450
- Gococi Comfort Fit CRA010: Php 1,950
- Gococi Comfort Fit CGG534: Php 1,950
No matter what shape your body comes in, you deserve a bra that fits you perfectly and provides confidence all at the same time. With the undergarments at Wacoal, you get all these options and more while still fitting right within your budget.
