Bust minimizer
“I’d like to find a cute bra that minimizes my bust-but that also lifts and separates, rather than just squashing me flat.” -Melissa Greer, Content Producer
Along with an embossed zebra print and cute rhinestone charm, this minimizer bra’s moulded cups are made from 3-D spacer material to comfortably shape the bust line and provide full coverage.

A bit of a boost
“I’m a small cup size, and like bras with enough padding for a boost-but not so much that the cups are like football padding!” -Josephine Woertman, Acting Art Director
This bright seamless push-up is made with smooth “Memory Fit” padded cups for natural-looking lifting and shaping, and enhanced comfort.
Victoria’s Secret, Style #254-150, $54
Support and comfort
“I don’t want to have to think about my bra; just give me lots of support and a comfortable fit so I can forget I’m even wearing it.” -Ruth Hanley, Copy Chief
Soft moulded cups in embroidered mesh conform to one’s shape for a supportive fit. Satin banding around the underwire and along hems softens edges.
