*Those wearing a DD Cup and above may prefer the style and added support features
of the Double Plus - especially for sleeping.
There are three styles of the Bravado Original bra to best accomodate your needs. The Basic Style is
for smaller cup sizes, the Plus Style is for medium size cups, offering a little more support, and the Double Plus Style
has a full front to give the maximum support needed for larger breasts. The Double Plus Style bra will fit up to a G
cup. The main design differences between the styles are:
| Basic |
Seamless cups |
| Plus |
Double fabric side panel for extra support
Seams running to the side of the nipple to avoid potential irritation to this sensitive area
|
| Double Plus |
Double fabric side panel for extra support
Wider shoulder straps and double snap closure, which stop the strap from
twisting and give extra security for the heavier breast
Solid front, “bandeau” crop style accommodates various breast shapes, and
gives coverage and support when worn to bed

Original Bravado bras are made from a blend of 92% cotton and 8% spandex that allows the cup to mold to a woman’s breast and to support its changing shape all day long. The material stretches and contracts to fit the breast without becoming too tight during engorgement. This reduces the risk of mastitis and allows room for breast pads without making the bra too tight. The sports bra style back provides excellent upper-middle back support, takes stress off of the shoulder straps, and holds the shoulder straps in place even during nursing. The shoulder straps are adjustable for extra comfort and the snaps for nursing are easily managed one-handed! The cups drop fully away from the breast giving complete nursing access for the baby. The elastic band is deliberately quite wide to give support under the breast and allow for even weight distribution. The pull-on styling means no more hooks to worry about.
