Bra shopping can be confusing, especially when the options are endless. With so many styles and fits, it can be hard to know which one best suits your needs. Nothing is more frustrating than an uncomfortable bra when you're out shopping or at work. Let’s take a look at padded vs non-padded bras and the various types of bras available. Keep reading while we break it down for you!
Padded uplift bras give you a fuller, more rounded look by perking the bust upwards. If you’re looking for bras with the best support that sculpt and round the breasts, padded bras are the perfect option.
Depending on the push-up effect you’re looking for, some padded bras are heavily lined, while others are not so much.
Perfect for wearing under fitted tees, padded bras do truly give an oomph like no other.
Enhance a smaller bust with added lift, padded bras create a natural shape while sculpting the chest.
I prefer bras without padding as they tend to be more comfortable and breathable. Non-padded bras are sewn from fabric without additional foam lining, making them lightweight but not overly shape-enhancing.
Creates a soft silhouette ideal for everyday wear
Non-padded bras provide great support without the extra bulk. This works for both a smaller cup as well as a fuller bust.
Stylish, lightweight, and even moisture-wicking. Depending on the fabric, non-padded bras keep you cool and comfortable all day long.
To be completely honest, it depends on your personal preference and the outfit of the day. Some tops need an added boost to give it that x-factor, while for others, a lacy non-padded bra is the perfect match. So, let's recap:
Need a smooth, lifted look under a tight tee or mini dress? Go with a padded uplift bra.
Need everyday comfort and breathable support? A non-padded bra might be your best bet.
Need and love variety? It’s a good idea to have different bra styles in your collection so you can switch between styles to suit your needs.
Despite which style you choose, the main thing is to find comfortable support bras that work for you. Not the other way around! Remember, you're not meant to have spillage or digging in the wires.
Happy bra shopping babes!
