Is a bralette a real bra?

The “lette” at the end of the word bra (note: some brands actually use “let” instead.), implies that it’s smaller, or less bra, or a petite version, or the younger sister version of a “real” bra. I hear that term a lot – “real”. The truth is that a bralette is a very real option for many people to wear as an everyday bra.

What makes a bra fit good or bad?

So many bra brands focus on good vs. bad fit, and the elements of a perfectly fitting bra, that sometimes we forget about all the different styles of bras there are. So much of a good fitting bra depends on the elements of certain styles of bras: the cup height, the neckline drop, the amount of padding, the width of the underwire, etc.
