Petite Bras:
3 Must Have Bra Styles
Petite Bras ...Many petite women feel they can make do with one or two brassieres; surprisingly some may even opt out of wearing a brassiere altogether.
Why? Because they don't believe they need a brassiere.
Contrary to popular belief, going braless or making do with just one or two basic bra styles can't possibly cover the range of clothing that most women have in their wardrobes today.
Whether you wear aa bras, or b cup bras there are three basic types of bras you should include in your lingerie drawer.
Let's take a closer look at these 3 bra styles and why they're important...
1. Padded Bras For Lift
What makes padded bras the best bras for petites? In a word, cleavage. They offer enhanced padding that ranges from lightweight and thin to thick and removable bra pads, depending on the bra style.
They're a great option for smaller busted women who want flexibility. Padded petite bras fall into 3 categories, including:
- Push Up Bras – underwire bra styles designed to push the breasts forward and together for bigger and better cleavage
- Demi Bras – underwire half bras with wide set straps that are designed to show off the upper half of the bustline.
- Balconette Bras – lightly padded underwire bras that combine the shape of a demi bra and the lift of a corset.
| Lingerie Tip – Pushup bras offer the best cleavage booster bra styles. Opt for removable foam or gel inserts for maximum lift. |
2. Seamless Bras For A Smooth Look
Whether you’re plus size or petite, seamless bras are a must-have for every lingerie drawer.
Why? These versatile everyday brassieres offer smooth, seamless bra cups which makes them a great option for almost every style of clothing.
| Lingerie Tip – Opt for basic colors in white, nude or natural nylon / microfiber petite bras under lighter colored clothing; slate and black under darker colors. |
3. Sports Bras For Working Out
Last but certainly not least are sports bras. While many petite women may scoff at the idea of wearing a sports bra, it's more important than you think.
If, you’re one of the millions of health conscious women who keep in shape by working out at the gym, running, walking, hiking, biking, or any other sport or physical activity, wearing a brassiere that is supportive while you exercise is a must.
Why? From 32aa to 38 dd, petite bras for sports are designed to protect delicate breast tissue and minimize bounce.
