A Guide To Buying Bras

Full-Cup

Bigger busts need a bit of extra support, but that doesn’t mean compromising on style. Look to bras with more coverage, underwiring and thick straps for a comfortable fit – and opt for romantic pale lace for a new season lingerie update.

“Need a little more coverage? Invest in some full-cup bras for flattering shapes. If you want detailing, we have a range of laced styles to add a feminine touch.” – Jenny Elisha, Lingerie Buyer at House of Fraser

Plunge

Ideal with deep V camis and décolletage-baring blouses, these pretty plunge styles show off just the right amount of lace. Look to brands like Stella McCartney and Calvin Klein for investment offerings that last.

“For pretty and practical bras, look no further. Plunge bras are perfect with eveningwear and provide just the right amount of support.” – Jenny Elisha, Lingerie Buyer at House of Fraser

Push-Up

If you’re lacking natural cleavage, look to House of Fraser’s range of push-up bras to enhance your shape under deep cut necklines or to fill out boxy tops. Sculpted styles get our vote – perfect for looking streamlined under your lighter spring wardrobe.

“To enhance your curves, invest in a good, supportive push-up bra, which will give you a fuller, uplifted shape.” – Saska Graville, Editor-in-Chief at House of Fraser

Strapless

Everyone needs a good strapless bra in their repertoire, and House of Fraser is delivering. We recommend having one in both black and white to guarantee you have the right underwear for every look – detachable strap styles are a versatile hero.
 
“Our latest strapless styles come with shaped cups and non-slip support to ensure you feel confident all day. For an extra lift, try our Ultimate Strapless Wonderbra – it’s a must-have for your bra wardrobe.” – Saska Graville, Editor-in-Chief at House of Fraser.

T-Shirt

One of our top tips for always looking polished? Wearing the right underwear. Avoid lumps and bumps by investing in smooth T-shirt bras – plus, their fuss-free finish and simple structure makes them the comfiest of the crop.

“T-shirt bras are ideal for every day wear. Opt for smooth materials such as our Tommy Hilfiger cotton styles – perfect for extra comfort.” – Jenny Elisha, Lingerie Buyer at House of Fraser
