The different types of push-ups
It is often mistakenly believed that a push-up is a "standard" model of bras, but in reality there are different types of push-ups to adapt to all occasions and desires. The majority of underwear brands offer push-ups and many allow us to modulate the desired level of seduction according to our desires thanks to the removable pads. But some go even further and offer, in addition, different degrees of padding (= padding) with more or less padded models. This is the case of the super push-up from H&M and the push-up +2 from Victoria’s Secret which offer us up to two more cup sizes. The padding is then chosen according to its chest size and the desired result.
Far from being an alcove secret, the push-up also enhances our outfits for all occasions. I wear a plunging neckline? I put on my push-up push-up. Do I wear a strapless dress? I opt for the strapless push-up bandeau. I wear a light blouse, I adopt a discreet push-up. Each garment has its favorite push-up to be sure of its advantage. In summer, the push-up follows us into the water in a swimsuit version.
How to choose your push-up according to your chest?
If there are many variations of this padded bra to highlight the different forms of breasts, you still have to know how to choose which one suits us best.
I have a small chest. I opt for the push-up push-up which will give me volume while redrawing the roundness of my breasts for a crisp cleavage.
I have a medium size chest or a firm chest that has a nice natural roundness. I adopt a classic shape push-up, basket or balconette, which will simply add volume without pushing the breasts towards the heart of the neckline for a discreet boost.
And if I'm having a hard time putting it on or prefer the comfort of triangle bras, why not start by trying a padded bra that will increase my chest volume sparingly?
Expert advice from Agathe Molinar, lingerie designer. "Women with small breasts and a desire for volume often opt for push-ups with stronger padding. A simple feeling of firmness will guide us towards less padded push-ups, more natural on the result. It is important to choose the right size in order to obtain the desired result. A push-up that is too big will have no effect and a bra that is too small will not contain the chest well and will not give a nice shape to the breasts and therefore to the silhouette. "
You are well advised to adopt the push-up!
