Intimate wardrobe sometimes requires no less attention to themselves than clothing. After all, here both the beauty of the product, as well as its quality, practicality, have increased importance. Consider in detail the advantages and disadvantages of a lace bra.
Types and models
To begin, we define the range of our interest. Lace bras come in several forms:
Bra:
Bra bra is the most common model on the bones. It has triangular cups covering almost completely the chest, and has the effect of a slight correction, slightly lifting and fixing the shape.
Balconette:
Balconies are characterized by wide detachable straps and low-cut underwired cups. Thus, the chest is quite naked. This option is well suited for low neckline round or square shape.
Corbey:
The bra cups of the corbie model are carved at an angle and have the effect of “gathering” the chest to the center, thus forming a mouth-watering hollow. This option holds its shape well and is perfect for a V-shaped neckline.
Seedless:
Lace bras without stones can have a different shape. They hold their chest well, but do not lift it. The same applies to the model of a triangle bra without foam rubber and filler. It looks good on a small size, while preserving the naturalness of the forms.
Top bra:
Top-bra looks like a short T-shirt. Very feminine and romantic model. However, like the version with a wide lace, sewn on the bottom of the bodice. Both styles emphasize a thin waist.
With openwork on the back and with modified straps:
Variations on the theme of detachable straps, which can be worn in a different way, crosswise or through the neck with a collar, make the lace bra multi-functional. It happens that the straps are connected on the back, as on sports models, and decorated with a wide openwork insert.
Push up:
And the last one on our list is the famous push-up style with special fillings that can be removed if necessary or can be sewn as a non-removable option. Such a model not only fixes the shape of the breast, but also adds at least one size to it.
Colour
The color variety of lace models of bras is very wide. On this material, any shade looks luxurious: extravagant black, elegant and festive white, sexy red, delicate pink, romantic pastel shades.
Beige models, blending with skin tone, look unusually sensual, thanks to the texture of the material, as if covering the body with ornaments.
Non-standard colors, for example, blue lace bra, emerald, gray, olive, yellow, look good only if they emphasize the skin color. You can try to wear them if you are tanned on vacation, so that the tan looks even more impressive.
Very interesting options for underwear, when the color of the bottom fabric and the color of lace, which is sewn on top, does not match. For example, on a red base black lace, on blue - pale green. These bras are really spectacular and very beautiful. In combination with satin and silk options, they can be suitable for the most special occasions.
Who is suitable?
In fact, the lace fabric of bras looks great on everyone. She absolutely in all cases emphasizes the femininity of its owner.When choosing, you should rather be guided by the style of the bra, the shape of the cup and your natural size.
If you have large breasts, then choose sufficiently closed models with wide straps, keeping a good shape. You will not fit bras without straps, balconette and triangle. Saturated lace fabric colors will look more neat on you. Consider that light beige tones in skin tone will add even more volume.
If you are the owner of an average size, then you can afford to wear literally all styles. Be guided only by the shape of the neckline, your taste, relevance and degree of convenience.
When choosing a bra for small breasts it is worth remembering about models with foam rubber, fillers and push-up effect. And if the choice fell on a soft cup, then here you can give preference to a very light or bright color of linen. It will visually add volume.
How to choose?
First of all, pay attention to the quality of the lace material. If a fabric of poor quality is used, the likelihood of a puff is very high. After a couple of washes, such a bra will look worn and may lose its shape. Favorably, if the openwork fabric contains in its composition a synthetic thread. This increases the wear resistance of the material.
Also pay attention to possible irritation due to the characteristic texture, if you are the owner of sensitive skin. However, do not deprive yourself of a luxurious bra - give preference to openwork weaving from a very thin, smooth thread.
For a more accurate definition of a good size, which can be labeled differently depending on the brand and country of origin, do not forget to contact consultants. Make sure that the back fastener does not rise up, but remains flush with the bottom line of the bodice in front. And also so that the straps and the seam of the base under the breast do not cut into the body.
Lace bras - the best option for a special occasion.
Wedding lingerie overwhelmingly created using this material. Romantic meetings are also a reason to pay close attention to the openwork models. Especially on those in which translucent patterned weaves are used without the use of a more dense fabric. In this case, the body shines through the laces, which looks very seductive.
What to wear?
Good taste means that the texture of the underwear should not appear under the clothes. It is admissible in a certain context only if lace straps are visible, in color matching the top. It can even further embellish the image, adding a touch of romance.
The main rule in clothes is not to wear a lace bra with a tight top or an overly transparent blouse.
The color of the bra should always match the color of the clothes, especially if it is at least a little transparent. The contrasting variant is a sign of bad taste, since in everyday life it looks too defiant.
Lace fabric will suit well for cotton models of clothing, especially in summer. Breathable material of such shirts, dresses and tops in combination with the “ventilated” openwork texture of underwear will make you feel comfortable even on the warmest days.
Care
Lace - capricious fabric, therefore, requires special treatment. With improper care, the deplorable appearance of the product is provided after a couple of washes. Therefore, for bras made from this material, the following precautions are preferable:
- use of a special mesh bag for machine wash or the latest development - plastic wall saver;
- delicate modes with a water temperature of not more than 30 degrees;
- detergents recommended for gentle care, for example, liquid detergent for baby clothes;
- washing separately from clothes made of dense materials;
- air drying, without the use of spin in a typewriter.
When washing lace contraindicated use of bleach.
The optimal number of bras in the wardrobe - seven for each day of the week, plus sets for a special occasion. This amount allows you to use underwear as efficiently as possible, increasing its service life. We also note that coarse fabrics of clothing worn on top will accelerate the wear of the delicate lace material.
Lace bra is, above all, tenderness, beauty, femininity and sensuality. He remains out of fashion and timeless. Undoubtedly, this is underwear for a real woman!
