If you are one of people who are tired of trying to hide your bra strap, or avoiding backless clothes because you don’t have the right bra, then this is for you. Did you know that the bra we wear need to change with the occasion and outfit? Did you know that there is more than one type of bra out there in the market? Take a look at the following types to see some of the essential types of brassiere that you need in your wardrobe.

Wired Bra

This is one of the most popular types. They come with a wired support underneath the cups to support your breasts. If you are looking for something that can keep your breasts lifted this is a good choice. The lift and support it provides also gives you the perfect silhouette. Depending on the neckline of your outerwear, you can choose either a full coverage wired brassiere or a demi coverage one.

Non-Wired

If the perfect silhouette is not your concern or you don’t have a large breast that needs some additional support, then it is perfectly fine to choose this type. Although wired is the trend now, there is nothing wrong with choosing a more comfortable style that do not have the wired support. This is also good when you need to keep wearing the same bra for a longer period of time.

Padded

These come with smooth cups that can give you a seamless look. If you are looking for something that can give you a sleek cover under a thin material of an outfit, then here is the choice for you.

Non-padded

These do not come with additional padding but instead have cups made of two or more layers of fabric. Most women with fuller breasts seem to choose this type because they do not need the additional accentuating provided by padded bras.

Plunge Bra

Looking for a bra to wear with a plunge neckline? Ten a plunge bra is the perfect choice. If you want the additional support of a bra but want to make sure that it is not seen over your outerwear, then you can wear a plunge bra.

Strapless Bra

While cute straps can look good, sometimes when the strap shows through your clothing can kill the entire look. This is why you need a strapless bra in your wardrobe. These come without the shoulder support provided by the straps, but with extra support underneath to keep the breasts lifted. They are perfect for halter necks, strapless clothes and off shoulder tops.

Sports Bras

Made specifically for athletic purposes they give you the additional support needed to perform rigorous physical activities. Depending on the type of workout you do, you can choose either a low impact bra, high impact bra or a medium impact bra.

Nursing Bra

A design made specifically for mother who are nursing, nursing bras provide additional support to the breasts. They also make it easier to breastfeed without removing the bra. The bra comes with flaps in front of it that can be removed to expose nipples when needed.

If you have a boring wardrobe with only one type of bra that you squeeze in for every occasion, then it is time to change that. Remember that the right type makes everything more fashionable, convenient and comfortable.
