What is the difference between a bralette and a bra?

The difference between a bralette and a bra is the level of support.

When you think of a bra, you often think of a t-shirt bra, which typically features underwire and thick foam cups. The underwire lifts, supports, and separates, and the sturdy foam cups provide added support and shaping. A bra like this can comfortably support a wide range of cup sizes, including larger chests.

Bralettes, on the other hand, prioritize comfort and style over support. They are often made from soft, stretchy materials and feature minimal padding and structure. Bralettes are perfect for lounging or layering under sheer or low-cut tops, as they often have intricate details like lace trim or crisscross straps. However, they may not provide enough support for larger busts or high-impact activities.
