Types Of Bra

2. Bandeau
A style that has been worn since the Roman times, and is either used to slimline the silhouette or is an easy bra for the smaller-breasted to wear.
Perfect for: going strapless and defying gravity

maternity and nursing bras are essential items for pregnant and breast feeding women to own, and focus on comfort and ease of access, while still being supportive

Racer back styles are a popular strap arrangement for sports bras, but also work well in general bra designs too as they give good support, and their straps will never fall down.
