Victoria's Secret Bralettes
Bra vs. Bralette: Comfort & Style
Bralettes and traditional bras serve distinct purposes, despite being part of the same lingerie family. The biggest difference comes down to the level of support each can provide. Bras often come with underwire, padding, and structured cups for lift and shaping, but bralettes typically do without these elements for relaxed and natural fit. This makes bralettes great lounge bras and typically go over the head, like a sports bra. Bralettes usually have playful designs like sexy lace, or a plunge triangle cut. Understanding that a bralette offers less support than traditional bras is the most important factor in deciding between the two.
Types of Bralettes
Wireless Bralettes
One of the most beloved features of a bralette is its wire-free design. Compared to other bra styles, bralettes have less structure for low impact and a lightweight feel.
Lace Bralettes
Our lace bralettes vary from Boho-inspired designs to simplified, elegant lace. Victoria's Secret lace is supersoft and stretchy for a breathable, light feeling. Feel confident wearing a lace bra under any outfit or as part of your lingerie collection.
Racerback Bralette
Racerback straps redistribute weight across the shoulders for more comfortable support. When both straps meet in the middle of your shoulders, it creates a wide coverage of your back. This orientation provides better support for women with large breasts. Since bralettes are loved for a low, natural lift, racerback straps further enhance comfort.
Padded Bralette
Get the most out of a lounge bra with a lightly padded option for more shape and lift. Wireless bras create lift through molded cups that bring breasts up. The push-up padding can add the appearance of cup sizes.
Triangle Bralette
Triangle bras are a flattering cut, especially for small breasts. The plunge neckline emphasizes cleavage with minimal to no padding or lining. The comfortable fit is a go-to in any women's closet.
Strapless Bralette
If traditional strapless bras are uncomfortable, try a strapless bralette. Like bandeaus, strapless bralettes minimize breast movement with a seamless look. Your bralette might have convertible straps so you can maximize its functionality and use.
<2>Sexy Bralettes
The feminine design and minimal lining of bralettes make them excellent lingerie. Many Victoria's Secret bralettes have lightly lined mesh or lace for a see-through style that is perfect for the bedroom.
How to Wear a Bralette
Bralettes go way beyond a traditional undergarment and can be styled peeking out of tops or under jackets for a flirty look. Bralettes are great for summertime outfits as a top or under baggy t-shirts. In the winter, a seamless bralette is comfortable under sweaters and cardigans.

How to Find Your Perfect Fit
Breast shape has a major impact on how your bra fits. Bralettes are a loosely structured style which makes it great for low profile breasts, which are dense and close-set to the body. Use your normal bra size and choose the corresponding size. Need more help? Take our bra fit quiz to learn about common bra fit issues or visit us in store for a free bra fitting.
