Everything You Need to Know About Wire-Free Bras

For many women, choosing a bra can be more of a pain than a pleasure. Lingerie shopping can be confusing if you don't know the differences between bra styles and what each style can do for you. One style of bra which is widely available is the wire-free bra. Also called a wireless bra, this style is completely free from an under-wire. A wire-free bra may have moulded cups, lined in a fine foam to add a little extra depth to your bust, or in mesh or cotton for a light-weight fit.

Women who have a small bust size often choose a wire-free bra over a under-wire bra for the comfort factor overall. It is for this reason that a wire-free bra is often recommended as a first bra for girls who are going through the changes of puberty. The natural, constricted feel of a wire-free bra also makes them popular with large busted women, especially those who like light support while sleeping.

A wire-free bra is also a good choice for women who have recently had breast surgery, such as implants or a mastectomy. While it is important to follow advice from your surgeon, a wire-free bra is always recommended after these types of operation, as under-wire bra styles can irritate scar tissue and delay the healing process. In the case of implants, an under-wire could also push the implants out of position which is obviously something you will want to avoid at all costs.

The wire-free bra has a softer construction than under-wire bras do, which gently shapes and moulds the bust, without forcing it into shape. This is ideal when you are wearing an outfit which suits a less sculpted look than that you would achieve with a plunge bra or balconette bra. Some women may be concerned that a wire-free bra does not offer sufficient support for their breasts, but on closer inspection, you'll find that these bras can stabilise your bust as well as an under-wire design. Remember, the back band of your wire-free bra should take most of the weight of the breasts, so measure up before purchasing, to get the right fit.
