Balconette & Half Cup

The balconette, or half-cup, bra has a low and straight neckline, with very widely spaced straps. Styles can be fabric or foam, often with vertical seams directing the bust upwards. An ideal style for those with a full-on-bottom breast, the lack of coverage at the top of the chest allows for an improved fit. The wide set shoulder straps may be a deal-breaker for many, and true balconette styles are limited in the fullest of cup sizes.
