The formulation and difference of bra cup shape
A bra cup shape refers to the size and shape of the cups of a woman's bra. It is typically divided into two categories: full cup bras and demi-cup bras.

Full cup bras are designed for maximum coverage and support and are recommended for women with larger breasts. The straps of full cup bras are angled in a way that helps lift the breasts up and in, providing good and even coverage. The cups come up higher on the chest to cover more of the breast and prevent spillage, providing more coverage than demi-cup bras.

Demi-cup bras, or 3/4 cup bras, are generally cut lower on the chest to reveal more of the upper area of the breast and are recommended for women with smaller breasts. These bras provide less coverage but give more of a “push up” effect, as they draw attention to the top of the breasts. The straps of these bras are usually set wider apart to allow for maximum cleavage.
