Guide to Glamorise Bra Styles, Sizing and Fit

Below is a mostly-comprehensive list of Glamorise bras, including their style names and style numbers, with notations on whether each is suitable for shallow or projected breasts and wide or narrow roots. The list prioritizes bras currently available, but some discontinued styles are included. 

Glamorise is a size-inclusive lingerie brand specializing in bras for full-figured and plus-size women. Founded in New York City in 1921, it is one of the oldest bra manufacturers in the world and has maintained a focus on curvy women since its inception. The brand pioneered innovations like the MagicLift® wireless support system (a criss-cross band for lift without wires) and WonderWire® (a cushioned underwire that prevents poking). Glamorise designs all bras in its NYC studio, emphasizing comfort, support, and durability. It offers one of the widest size ranges in the industry: band sizes typically 30-58 and cup sizes B-K (US sizing). The brand is particularly known for wireless bras, front-closure styles, posture-support options, and high-impact sports bras tailored for larger busts. Glamorise bras are generally designed for wide roots (cups and wires tend to be wider than average) and shallow to moderately projected breasts (cups are often shallower, which can cause fit issues for highly projected shapes, leading to wrinkling at the bottom or lack of depth). They excel in comfort for everyday wear, wide padded straps to reduce shoulder strain, and support for fuller figures, but may not provide optimal lift or shape for narrow-rooted or very projected breasts.

Notes on Fit and Breast Shape

Shallow vs. Projected: Shallow breasts have less forward projection and a wider base, needing wider, less deep cups. Projected breasts extend farther out, requiring deeper cups with immediate projection at the wire. Wacoal’s “Shape Revelation” collection targets specific shapes (e.g., shallow top/full bottom), aiding identification.

Wide vs. Narrow Roots: Wide roots span a broader chest area, needing wider wires; narrow roots are more compact, needing narrower wires. Wacoal’s fit guides and user feedback help determine wire width suitability.

Notes on Fit Characteristics:

  • Wide vs. Narrow Roots: Consistently wide cups/wires; ideal for wide roots but may sit in armpits for narrow.
  • Shallow vs. Projected: Shallower apex with less bottom depth; best for shallow or moderate projection.
  • Many styles include moisture-wicking, padded straps, and front-closures for ease.
