Spacer bra

What is a spacer bra and what makes her different?

The difference between a spacer bra and a regular bra is in the fabric of the cups. This is because the cups of a spacer bra are made of a special, 3D woven fabric with an open structure. Quite a mouthful, but this makes the bra extremely breathable. This ensures that heat and moisture are removed quickly. So the bra will not feel clammy and your skin can breathe.

But there's more! The cups are thinner than in a "regular" pre-shaped bra. Nevertheless, they offer sufficient support and the cups do not lose their shape. This makes a spacer bra lighter and more flexible. Wonderfully comfortable, even after a long day of wearing.

Who is a spacer bra ideal for?

A spacer bra is suitable for many women. For when you are looking for a bra that breathes. One that doesn't feel so heavy on the skin. Or when you have rapid perspiration on hot days or during work. It is also very suitable when you wear tight clothes and do not want visible seams or thick cups.

For women with larger cup sizes, a full cup spacer bra can provide extra support. An underwire bra with spacer cups again provides more shape and a subtle elevator. Want to know if the spacer bra is also suitable for the shape of your breasts? Then read our blog"Which bra fits me?".

The disadvantages of a spacer bra

Although a spacer bra has many advantages, there are a few points to consider. The cups are thinner than in a classic contoured bra. This means it offers less volume and shaping. For some women, this may take some getting used to. Especially if you are used to a firmly shaped cup. In addition, a spacer bra is less suitable if you are looking for a push-up effect or extra padding. This type of bra follows the natural shape of the breast. They do not give extra elevator or make your breasts appear larger.

The right size and fit

The best spacer bra is the one that fits perfectly. Only then can it do its job properly. So wearing the right size is important. Why that is exactly, we are happy to explain to you in our blog"The importance of calculating the right bra size". Here we also help you step by step in measuring your bra size.
