What exactly is a Bralette?

A bralette is an increasingly popular lingerie item due to its many advantages. One of the most important benefits of a bralette is its comfort. Unlike traditional bras, bralettes have no underwires or molded cups, making them less restrictive and more comfortable to wear. They also offer greater freedom of movement and breathability, keeping you comfortable all day long.

Many bralettes are made from sustainable materials like organic cotton, recycled polyester, and bamboo. These materials are not only environmentally friendly but also last longer than traditional bra materials. This means you'll need to buy new lingerie less often, which is good for the environment and your wallet.

Bralettes are also incredibly versatile. They come in a variety of styles and colors, allowing you to wear them under all sorts of clothes. From casual to formal, from a fitted T-shirt to a sheer blouse, there's always one to match your outfit. Moreover, there are bralettes with different straps and patterns that can give your outfit an extra touch.

In short, wearing a bralette is comfortable, durable, and versatile. It's an item that's becoming increasingly popular with women of all ages and sizes.

We understand that comfort and support are essential for all cup sizes. That's why we also offer bralettes specifically designed for larger cup sizes. Our bralettes are not only fashionable but also provide the necessary support and coverage for a comfortable fit.

Bralettes for larger cup sizes can be a comfortable and stylish alternative to a traditional underwire bra. They provide a more relaxed fit while still offering support. However, it's important to note that underwire bras don't offer the same level of lift and shaping as standard bras. Ultimately, it depends on your personal preference and comfort level.

Our bralettes are available in sizes XS to XL to accommodate a variety of body types. While specific size availability may vary depending on the design, we offer sizes up to XL or larger cup sizes such as DD, E, and F. Consult our size chart or contact our customer service team for help finding the right size for you.

For larger cup sizes, we recommend checking out our bralettes with a V-lined or balcony-shaped underband. Take a look at the Roxy , Ruby, Lune, or Jade. We're sure there's a bralette for you!

Bralettes are designed to provide support and comfort without the use of wires. Instead of traditional underwires and padding, they utilize clever techniques that provide ample support. Here are some examples:

• Sewing patterns: Many bralettes are designed with strategic sewing patterns that provide structure and support. These patterns ensure the bralette retains its shape and provides a subtle lift.

• Wide underband: Bralettes often have a wide, elastic underband that fits snugly under the bust. This underband provides soft yet firm support and ensures the bralette stays securely in place.

• High-quality materials: The fabrics used in bralettes, such as those from Pavo Couture, are carefully selected for their flexibility and strength. They offer not only softness but also a supportive feel.

• Adjustable straps: Adjustable straps allow you to customize the fit to your preference. They provide extra lift and support, making our bralettes suitable for both smaller and larger cup sizes.

The level of support a bralette offers can vary depending on the design, the materials used, and personal preference. Some bralettes are ideal for lighter support, while others are specifically designed for larger cup sizes. Therefore, it's worth trying different styles to find the one that suits you best.

We often try to hide bras under our clothes, but that's not necessary with bralettes. They're meant to be seen. A seductive sneak peek! Wear the bralette in a way that still shows, but still looks sophisticated ;)

Casual occasions:

Bralettes are perfect for casual occasions because they're comfortable and stylish. Here are some styling tips to wear your bralette correctly:

1. Wearing a bralette with a loose top: Wear a bralette under a loose tank top, blouse, or T-shirt for a relaxed and comfortable look. This creates a layered look and shows off the bralette as a subtle detail.

2. Wearing a high-waisted bralette: Wear a bralette with high-waisted pants or a skirt. It's a stylish way to accentuate your waist and show a little skin without revealing too much.

3. Wearing a bralette with an open back: Wear a bralette with a top or dress that has an open back. This allows you to showcase the bralette as a statement piece and adds a touch of style to your outfit.

4. Wearing a bralette with a blazer: Wearing a bralette with a blazer adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to your outfit.

Formal occasions

Wearing a bralette to a formal occasion can be a daring choice, but it can also create a stylish and trendy look. Here are a few tips for pulling this outfit off:

1. Choose the right bralette : Choose a bralette that complements the style of your formal outfit. Look for bralettes in neutral colors like black, white, or beige and choose a style that isn't too flashy.

2. Keep it subtle: Wear a bralette under a jacket or blazer for a subtle look. If you're wearing a dress, you can wear the bralette as a top with a blazer over it.

3. Pair with a high-waisted top : Pair the bralette with high-waisted pants or a skirt to give your outfit a more formal look. This will help draw attention to your waist and enhance your silhouette.

Sleeping and lounging

Bralettes are a great choice for women looking for comfortable and supportive lingerie, especially while sleeping. Unlike regular bras, bralettes don't have underwires or molded cups, making them soft and comfortable to wear.

Below are some of the benefits of wearing a bralette while sleeping:

1. Comfortable and soft: Bralettes are made of soft materials that feel gentle on the skin, essential for a good night's sleep. They have no hard underwire or molded cups, making them less restrictive than a regular bra.

2. Breathable: Bralettes are made of breathable fabrics like cotton, which means they promote airflow and absorb moisture. This helps reduce excessive sweating and keeps you cool and comfortable while you sleep.

3. Supportive: Even though bralettes don't have underwires, they still offer good support. Bralettes are designed to maintain a natural shape without restricting the breasts. That's the beauty of wearing a bralette.

To keep your bralette in good condition, we recommend washing it after 2 to 3 wears. Over time, sweat, skin oils, and personal care products can build up on the material, so regular washing is important. Follow these guidelines to keep your bralette clean and looking its best:

• Hand wash: The best way to wash your bralette is by hand. Fill a sink or basin with lukewarm water and add a mild lingerie soap. Gently submerge the bralette, paying extra attention to areas that need more cleaning, and avoid scrubbing or wringing to prevent damage.

• Machine wash: If you prefer to use the washing machine, place your bralette in a special delicates bag. Select a delicates cycle with cold water and use a mild detergent to protect the fabric.

• Drying: After washing, gently squeeze out excess water without wringing or twisting the bralette. Lay the bralette flat on a clean towel and shape it back into its original shape. Let it dry in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

• Avoid the dryer: The heat from a dryer can damage the elasticity and shape of your bralette. Air drying is always the best option.
