What’s Your Favorite Brand & Style? Part 1
There are so many places to shop and so many different styles of bras it can be overwhelming deciding what to buy that will look best and be comfortable at the same time. This article will share some of the different styles and what we have found looks best on most women when being photographed. So if you are looking for the right bra we’re here to help you find what suits you best!
We decided to cover the four top styles that flatter most women’s figures so here you are!
Demi: Covers lower ¾ of the breasts and great for pushing up and creating cleavage.
They may be padded or unlined and sheer, and covered with pretty lace. (My Favorite)
Pushup: Heavily padded to push up breasts and create a fuller appearance.
A perfect fit is critical so breasts are pushed up not hidden in the padding.
Full Coverage: Great for full bodied, bustier women who need a bit more support.
They naturally shape while providing the extra support but can still look super sexy!
Balconette: Covers only the lower half of the breast and cups are usually lined.
This bra usually has a fairly straight cut across the breasts with wide set straps.
There are so many different bras and makers out there to choose from that it’s important to make sure you are buying the correct size. Did you know over 90% of women are wearing the wrong size bra? If you have never been fitted by a professional, we recommend it highly! Going someplace like Zoe’s where they will do a private measuring for you can change the way you look at bra shopping. My husband (brave man!) went there a few years ago and bought me a gift certificate that included a free fitting as a Christmas present. As with most other women, I found out I had been wearing the wrong size bra for years! They were also awesome about explaining to me the different styles of bras and helping me pick out what best suited my figure best.
Let me know what your favorite brand and bra style is and if you’ve ever been professionally fitted! You can check out our Bra Calculator and if you do, please leave us feedback – it’s anonymous but helps us ensure everything is working as it should!
Next time I will talk about the other half of your lingerie wardrobe – Panties!
