Unique Bras For Fitting Issues

The female body is not uniform. When it comes to undergarments, we all have unique dimensions. Heck, our girls aren't even the same size. This effectively means there is no "right" bra for all of us.

For many, a specific type of bra is the key to finding ample support and comfort. The problem is most women don't know all the bra choices available. With this in mind, let's take a look at some unique bras that can make the difference between a great fit and a poor one.

Racerback Bras

Racerback bras have straps that run up towards the neck on the chest. As the straps come around the neck and down the back, the straps come together before moving down to the band. The "straps" can be traditional bra sizes or much larger and in more of a flat cloth design.

The advantage of the racerback bra is it tends to take pressure off the outer shoulder area. If you find you have red, angry marks from your straps or, on the opposite end of things, the straps are always falling off your shoulders, the racerback bra can be a godsend. It also tends to pull the breasts up and to the middle of the chest, which is particularly comfortable for some women. If you wear tank tops, the racerback bra is the bra of choice.

Bralette

A bralette is not really a bra per se. It is more like a half t-shirt with cups on it. The bra is incredibly comfortable, but provides little support. If you are purely trying to find something comfortable, the bralette is about as good as you are going to do. The fact there is no support at all, however, makes it a bra that should only be worn occasionally.

Foam

The foam bra is not made of foam. Instead, it is a basic bra with a thinner foam lining in the cups. The bra is particularly comfortable because of the additional support provided directly to the breast. Depending on the brand, you may be able to move the foam lining around a bit. This allows you to adjust the fit for both breasts since each is slightly different than the other in size and shape. The foam lining bra will also hide any nipple show through issues you might have.

The days of one bra fits all are long gone. Don't just try different sizes to find the perfect bra for your body. Instead, look through new and different design styles to see if there is one that could make the difference with your body type. You'll be glad you did if you find the perfect bra.

Bustier and Corset - Differentiating Lingerie Twins

We have seen it, we have seen Madonna wear it, we know our great grandparents used to wear it and we see adult movies where women wear variations of it. What we are talking about here are corsets and bustiers. Modern day fashion has brought the corset and the bustier from the inside of an outfit to the outfit itself, usually being paired by a pair of sexy jeans, a mini denim skit, Elizabethan style skirts or even tutus.

Women with a fuller build are the ones that really benefit from wearing corsets and bustiers. Plus size corsets hug all the right places that need to be cinched and at the same time, they also make the places that you want to be accentuated really stand out - like the chest and the hips, giving that fantastic hour-glass figure that everyone longs for. Plus size corsets are really heaven sent for the bbw (big beautiful woman).

A big question that may be tickling the minds of those that wear plus size corsets is that they are very similar to bustiers. To help settle a rather trivial but curious dispute let us differentiate the twins of the lingerie world, the bustier and the corset.

Bustier:


A bustier is a sleeveless top that spans the bust to the waist (sometimes touching the hips or the top area of the butt) and it is worn either as lingerie or as outer clothing. It is form fitting and it may sometimes have garters attached to it. Modern bustiers now have thin lacy straps but most bustiers are like tube tops.

Corset:

The corset was developed more than a millennium ago. It is a close fitted boned undergarment that shapes a woman's torso. It can either extend from above or below the bust to the hips, giving that appropriate binding effect to have a flatter waistline.

As you can see from the definition above, the two are more likely to be called as twins. They look the same and they practically do the same thing. But in the interest of settling the debate, one huge difference between the two is that the corset came first in terms of origin while the bustier came trailing decades later. A more prominent difference is that a corset does not always cover the breasts while a bustier always does. A corset that covers the chest area is called an over-bust corset.

In any case, both lingerie styles can be worn in and out of the bedroom. Especially for plus size women, you really want to emphasize the breasts as they are usually one of the best assets a fuller woman has. Wearing a plus size corset or a plus size bustier can further enhance that, giving you a more voluptuous appearance.

Some women are hesitant in wearing a plus size corset in public, but if you wear it in good taste, then there is nothing to be worried about. Just make sure you wear it in appropriate places such as parties and clubs and you can never go wrong!

Bra Review - The Chantelle Senso 2701 T-Shirt Bra

The recession is such these days that finding clothing that can fill multiple needs is a necessity. To this end, Chantelle offers a bra that simply is flexible, yet excellent.

If you want a bra that goes anywhere, you want the Chantelle Senso 2701 T-Shirt Bra!  The Chantelle Senson 2701 T-Shirt Bra is a versatile bra and has three different strap positions: Crossed, Close Set (Y back) and Normal.  Whatever outfit ensemble you decide to wear, you can wear this Chantelle bra underneath.  From a T-shirt to a formal evening gown, it should work for you.  It is the "must have" bra you want in your collection!

The Chantelle Senso is just a great bra.  It is a little firmer than the Chantelle Body Sculpt, yet does not feel like a harness.  It has great support and comfort.  It comes in the basic colors, nude and black.   It does not have anything fancy such as stripes or other designs.  If you want molding, firmness, and versatility, this is the bra for you.  It is a popular style and goes up to a G cup.  It also provides great shaping and allows you to look invisible underneath.  It is just so smooth and has a slight plunge to allow for some cleavage action. 

My own experience: I was traveling across the USA on holiday and found out how expensive those extra luggage bags cost for an airline flight.  As you know, you want to travel light and yet have everything you need for every occasion.  This bra is a life-saver, not only for space, but for everything in my wardrobe.  During my vacation, I was able to relax and not worry about the nipple protrusion.  It is a molded bra and hides them.  I did not have to worry about the lines of my bra showing through my tight fitting clothing.  It is such a smooth bra.  Finally, I did not worry about my straps showing.  I could just alternate the strap positions of my bra. 

This is a truly versatile bra.  Even when I am not traveling, this is my everyday bra and every evening bra.  I own five of them.  It is comfortable, supportive, and so smooth.  The French really can meet my everyday lingerie needs.  It is a perfect bra for a full cup woman like me.  It also provides for great shaping and support.  I love absolutely love this bra and the support it provides.
