Balconette Bras
Bra Shopping Guide
Balconette bras are wildly popular among women who prefer brassieres with a sexy look and feel, and who want to add a lift to their bustline. These brassieres, which may feature
demi bras
or
full bras
feature a horizontal bottom band that effectively places the breasts on a shelf, providing a perky, attractive look to the bust.
Balcony bras are suitable for wear under almost any style of clothing, and can help women of any age or
bra sizes
look and feel amazing.
Ladies who wear these
exotic bras
for the first time will probably find themselves gravitating to them again and again, as
exotic lingerie
is universally flattering. The principal consideration when choosing one of these
types of bras
is the bra cup style, which often must be determined by the neckline of the clothing.

Ladies who wear high-necked clothing styles can literally choose any bra style they wish. Those with more revealing necklines, however, must take care that the tops of their bra cups do not peek out of their dress.
Demi cup bras
are a fantastic choice in this situation, as they provide equal uplift but leave the top half of the breast exposed.

For maximum cleavage, consider a balconette bra or
padded push up bras
with demi cups. The pads in these brassires are often removable for wear on days when cleavage is unimportant.

Others have gel inserts that are permanently sewn into the fabric of each cup. Try on several
push up bras
in balconette styles to find the most comfortable option for you.
The most extreme version of the balconette bra is called the
shelf bra
or
open bra.
These balcony bras have straps and a bottom band, but only a very tiny cup that supports the very bottom of each breast. The nipples and most of the breast remain exposed; in fact, some
open bras
have no cups at all, simply a series of underwire supports. For most women, these sexy bras are not a practical option for everyday wear; however, they can be a tantalizing choice for the romantic moments or special occasions like
honeymoon lingerie.
Ladies who feel more comfortable in a more modest brassiere may opt for an
open nipple bra
or
open tip bra
in the peephole style.

These brassieres have
demi bra
cups that are split down the middle, revealing the nipples but covering a good deal of the other breast tissue.
Many of these
open cup bra
styles have ribbon closures that control the amount of skin that is exposed. The cups on these
open lingerie
brassieres may be closed completely (in which case the bra may be worn under everyday clothes), or opened up to provide an enticing view of what lies beneath.
