Front Closure Bras


Bra shopping

Front closure bras come in a wide variety of bra styles and fabrics. Preferred by many women, the unique feature to these types of bras is their lack of a hook-and-eye closure system in the back of the brassiere band.

Instead, these brassieres employ a similar closure in the front, between the bra cups, that is usually constructed out of matching plastic or metal.

Unlike traditional full figured bras or even pushup bras with a front closure are a fabulous option for women with arthritis or who cannot comfortably reach their arms behind them.

They’re also extremely convenient for everyone else.

Women may choose front close bras for a variety of reasons.

Those with racerback style dresses and tops may find that these sexy bras are their best option, since most racerback bras close in the front.

These bras may be full bras or may have demi bra cups; they may be made from any material imaginable, and do not have to be expensive. As long as the bra is comfortable, supports your breasts adequately, and remains invisible under your dress, it’s a good purchase!

When bra shopping it’s important to note that front closure bras often fit slightly differently than those whose fastenings are in the back.

Specifically, the cups on such bras are often slightly smaller; this can create an unflattering “fault line” that crosses each breast diagonally where the cup ends.

To prevent such spillage, try these brassieres on before buying them; you may find that you want to go up a cup size or band size in order to accommodate the slightly different bra sizes used by many bra and intimate apparel manufacturers.

Plus size ladies who want a front closure bra should consider plus size bras in full coverage styles. These frequently resemble sports bras, and have wide shoulder straps for added comfort.

Plus size bras typically close with a series of metal or plastic hooks and eyes between the bra cups that are similar to traditional back closure bras.

Because there may be four or five front hooks, these brassieres have fuller coverage cups, and usually work best beneath dresses and clothing that do not have low-cut necklines, lest the brassiere become visible.

Front close bras are incredibly useful lingerie undergarment brassieres that work beneath almost any style of shirt or dress.

These exquisite bras can easily become a valuable part of your regular lingerie collection, and an intimate apparel favorite that you reach for from your lingerie drawer time and time again.
