Unlined Bras

My mum always told me unlined bras don't give support as a moulded cup would but I see countless of unlined bras everywhere including here! What are unlined bras supposed to do? Do they give enough support for those with bigger busts? xD

  • Unlined vs molded/lined makes no difference in terms of support. Support comes mostly from the band, so the important thing with support is for the band to be tight enough.

  • Unlined bras are designed to give support to all sizes including larger busts. The support comes from the band and the underwires and the shape of the cups formed when the individual pieces of the cups are sown together.

    I usually wear a 36JJ and almost all of my bras are unlined and the couple that are lined are not molded but are made from lightly lined pieces that are sown together the same as the unlined bras.

    Molded bras generally do not provide as much support for larger busts as they just cannot support the weight of larger breasts the same as a bra that is created by sewing pieces together to form the cups.
