The importance of the right bra shape

You have already noticed that there are many varieties of bras. And for something they are all intended, not only for beauty. Imagine that you are buying an incredibly beautiful bust or even a set of bra and panties. They are of the softest material, possibly laced or embroidered. You put it all on yourself, but it does not bring joy. Why? Because it is not the village. Moreover, somehow uncomfortable. Whether pulling somewhere, or something else. In a word, did not fit.

That is why the first place when choosing underwear is convenience and comfort, and then beauty and attractiveness. You do not take yourself shoes that are too tight, no matter how beautiful they are. The same goes for linen.

Types of female figures are different, the shape of the chest, too. Therefore, the bra is your assistant, and not just another beautiful accessory. Of course, we want it to be three in one - and convenient, and practical, and beautiful. In this case, you must be well versed in the features of female figures and know what is right for you.

Basic models and their names

What are the bras? They are different in design, style. Cups in them are also different types.

You can often hear that the bra is molded calyx. What is it? The molded cup is made of the finest foam rubber, which is compressed using a special technology and create a round and smooth shape for the bustier.

The calyx may be soft or denser, thin or hard. It all depends on the type of bra. But it is always durable, will not burst from long operation or washing.

Now in the production of cups for bras began to use breathable material of a new generation. Cups of this material have special properties. They are breathable, which is ideal in summer heat, for example. They are not deformed, but under mechanical action they immediately return to their former form. They are very, very light. It is a pleasure to wear a bra with such cups, because it feels like a second skin, that is, it is almost not felt on the body.

Since there are different types of bras, they use special shaped molded cups. So, what are the busts in appearance? Classic, push-up, balcony, corbey, seamless, silicone and others. But let's get everything in order.

Push up

Translated from English, push-up means "to increase, raise." Bra slightly shifts and lifts the chest, thereby increasing it visually. Therefore, it is particularly popular with girls with small forms. A kind of cheat bra.

A cup of such a bra at the bottom has a special pocket. It is inserted foam, gel, silicone, air or other pad, with which creates the desired effect. Or the cup has a built-in pad from the same gel. And the gel pad can be not only the bottom, but also the side. Then both mammary glands can be brought closer to each other, if, for example, they are far planted from nature.

This type of bra is loved by all the girls, because in this way you can increase your breasts by one or two sizes easily. However, doctors do not recommend wearing it daily, as permanent injury to the chest will not lead to anything good.

Types of fasteners on the bra

The clasps are on the back in the form of hooks (the most common option) or in front, at the chest, also in the form of hooks. Less often is the option "door heck", when a plastic wand is inserted into the tube.

And the rarest form of a fastener is a plastic plate. Such a clasp was on bras a long time ago, but even now it has been preserved in some places. Very uncomfortable. Used in the cheapest models.

What to wear with?

For everyday wear, we recommend a seamless pattern. Why? They are comfortable and concise. Invisible under any type of clothing, whether it is thin knitwear or cotton. They are so comfortable that you, having been in such a bra all day, will not feel it. It's no wonder they say that they are like a second skin.

For daily exits fit indoor and classic bras. They are comfortable, appropriate for any physique, fit well.

If you pick up a bra on the way out and put on a dress with a neckline, a balconette, corbey, push-up, a bra without straps, a bra with a deep neckline, or angelica will suit you perfectly.

A huge selection of modern models of bras allows you to choose the perfect option for any outfit.

For clothes with an open back, a bra with “smart” straps that can be moved or relocated to any place, as well as a silicone pad, will be an ideal option. She will help you out even if you decide to wear a transparent or lace dress.

Bra with a seal will help you out when you decide to wear clothes that require clear forms. For example, a turtleneck, deaf smooth sweater or tight dress.

For nursing mothers sew special bras with detachable front. We want to advise you more seamless top. It is very convenient during this period of your life. It supports a breast, at the same time does not squeeze, it can always be easily removed and put on. In the case when you need to keep a breast pump with you, a seamless top-bra fixes it gently, securely and in the place that you need.

If your chest is very stout, you can wear a seamless top, and another one is the same on it. This technique is great to help hold the chest. And often in a seamless tops, a molded cup-tab is provided. Very convenient and practical.

For gymnastics or any type of fitness, for jumping and running, choose a sports bra. After all, it is intended for this. The chest will not swing back and forth, it will not be injured, but it will be held securely, which is what we need.

Since we often wear wrestling jerseys or open tops in the summer, you should wear a bra with straps at the back. Then no one will notice that you have a bra. Now many, without embarrassment, put on under such clothes a regular bust, the straps of which are visible, but this is nothing but a sign of bad taste.

For those with sloping shoulders and straps constantly slipping, we recommend to stay on the bra, the straps of which cross at the back. This model is practical and convenient for everyday use.
