Read moreThe Best Bras for Sagging Breasts
Let's talk about something that affects many of us—finding the perfect bra for breasts that need extra lift and support. It's natural for breasts to lose some firmness as we age or due to other factors like weight fluctuation and even just gravity doing its thing. This can often affect women's confidence in their appearance. But don't worry; we are here to guide you to the best bras for sagging breasts that achieve a perkier, more rounded look.
What Causes Breasts to Sag?
Multiple factors are at play when it comes to breasts sagging. Age undoubtedly plays a significant role in breast sagging. As you age, collagen (responsible for skin firmness) breaks down and isn't as quickly replenished, contributing to sagging. Other causes include pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations. If your breasts enlarge and shrink rapidly, it could lead to sagging. Then, of course, there's genetics, which ultimately decides which breast shape you are endowed with. The good news? The right bra for saggy breasts can make all the difference in giving you the lift you need.
Does Breast Shape Impact Sagging?
Yes, breast shape can influence sagging. While sagging can affect all breasts, your breast shape will impact the likelihood of your breasts sagging and the amount of sagging you will experience. Full bottom/shallow top breasts and pendulous breasts are particularly more prone to sagging.
What To Consider When Selecting a Bra for Sagging Breasts
When shopping for bras for saggy breasts, look for styles that provide ample support and lift. It's all about the support and extra lift. Always look for high-quality, supportive bras built to hold you comfortably all day and with thoughtful construction to enhance your shape. The most supportive bras tend to include features like an underwire and padded cups for added structure. Keep in mind that the best support bras for sagging breasts should also be comfy.
Full-Coverage Bras
Full-coverage bras are your best friend for maximum coverage and support, especially for women with bigger and sagging busts. They typically extend higher under the arms and offer full cup coverage and support, giving you a smooth, streamlined silhouette. Our Smoothing Full Coverage Bra is a prime example in this regard, as it provides a comforting, supportive fit while delivering a seamless appearance.
Underwire Bras
Many women with sagging breasts enjoy underwire bras because of the invisible lift and targeted support they provide. With an underwire bra, your breasts appear more rounded thanks to the curved underwire at the bottom of the cup, which also gives the bra cups additional support.
Love the sound of that? Our 24/7™ Classic T-Shirt Bra might be your perfect match. It features a supportive underwire, memory foam cups that mold to your unique shape, and a smooth, seamless design that disappears under clothes.
Minimizer Bras
If you have a fuller bust, controlling the volume goes a long way in minimizing sagging. A minimizer bra is an excellent option as it distributes the breast tissue evenly while maintaining a natural shape. ThirdLove's minimizer bras are particularly great options. They are perfect for enhancing support without adding bulk and work well under button-down and fitted tops.
Push-Up Bras
Want a little extra lift and shaping? How better to counteract sagging than with a bra designed for maximum lift? Our Uplift Plunge Bra delivers remarkable results to this end. It offers a deep plunge neckline with supportive padding and angled cups for a natural lift. It's the ultimate choice when aiming for extra oomph and flattering cleavage.
How To Measure Your Bra Size With Sagging Breasts
If it's been a while since you last measured your bra size, it is best to shop for your next bra with your accurate size. Finding your size is crucial for optimal support, especially when dealing with sagging breasts. It'll make a world of difference in both comfort and appearance. Measure your underbust and bust measurements accurately, and use our Bra Size Calculator to find your actual size.
Tips for Maintaining Breast Support Over Time
Once you've found supportive bras, caring for them is essential to ensure you get the most out of them. To keep their shape and elasticity, hand wash your bras or use a lingerie bag if you must machine wash them on the delicate cycle. Rotating between a few good bras can also help extend their life. Invest in a high-quality, well-made bra with supportive fabrics and construction.
Remember, breast changes are a natural part of a life's journey, and even when your breasts have bowed to gravity, you can still enjoy support and a great silhouette with the right bra. At ThirdLove, we're committed to helping every woman find the best bra, whether dealing with sagging or seeking maximum support. We embrace your unique beauty.
