Normal Vs. Push-Up Bras

Choosing a right bra can seem like a paramount task. Most women would like to enhance their bustline with a push-up bra or simply find a normal bra that flatters their shape.

Considerations

What will you be doing in your bra?

The right bra will accentuate a woman's figure and provide the bust with plenty of support. Consider two main factors when choosing a bra type: What will I be doing while wearing the bra, and does this bra fit my bust and figure?

Push-Up Bras

Many push-up bras have padding, giving the illusion of a larger cup size. Push up-bras tend to provide a boost, enhancing the bustline. They also help to hold everything in the right place. Because push-up bras have underwire and padding along the sides of the bra, they literally "push up" breasts, giving more accentuated cleavage.

Regular Bra

Regular bras do not have padding.

Many regular bras will still accentuate the bustline and provide support, although they are not padded.

Balcony Bras

Fuller women probably don't need push-up bras.

Women with full breasts probably do not want extra padding, just extra support. Try to find a regular bra that provides plenty of support. Consider a balcony bra, as it pushes up from below.

Plunge Bras

Petite women may opt for a push-up bra for an extra boost.

Small breasts are best suited for plunge bras. Plunge bras push the breasts up from the sides to create a fuller, rounded look, and they do not need padding or underwire.
