Full-figured women, with rounded curves and larger breasts, need bras with good support. Breasts are supported by ligaments that stretch and sag without support. To keep the girls shapely and comfortably supported, look for full-figure bras constructed with support features such as a banded underwire, side slings, wider shoulder straps and seamed cup. Rigid cups or those made with a power mesh help to hold full-figure breasts in place. A leotard back design will also offer support and take some of the stress off shoulders and upper back.
Full figure support bra styles have improved measurable over the years. You'll find everything from sports bras and basic t-shirt bras to sexy balconettes with feminine lace detailing. Some brands offer cups sizes up to an N or O and band sizes to 50. In full-figure bras, sizes can vary from brand to brand, so be sure to check the sizing chart and try HerRoom's Universal Cup Sizing to make shopping a breeze.
