If you’re looking for comfort, but at the same time versatility when choosing lingerie, get to know Bralette, a bra model that’s definitely here to stay! Originally, bralettes were those more sporty tops that didn’t have the bralette like regular bras, but now bralettes have been renewed and are now made with more delicate fabrics such as lace and marked by fine details, such as transparency.
In addition to combining with different styles, the bralette is comfortable because it is usually composed of lighter fabrics and does not have the same support with the iron of traditional bras, getting rid of some discomforts caused by common lingerie.
We invited the style consultant Laís Urizi to talk more about the bralettes and teach us how to compose different looks using the piece. Check out:
Bralette with sheer blouse
Bralettes are constantly worn under sheer blouses and for Laís, they form an excellent combination, as sheer pieces are also here to stay. According to the style consultant, the bralettes “are super comfortable for everyday wear and even worn under blouses that have a slight transparency, such as thinner t-shirts, will create an interesting look for those who notice them there.”
Bralette with low-cut or low-cut blouse
You can combine the bralette with a t-shirt that shows off the piece, even partially. According to Laís, the bralettes are also amazing used with half-open and half-closed T-shirts, “giving that idea of “show and hide”. The lace itself already carries a sensual weight, in the bralettes, even more.”
bralette as top
Bralettes can also be worn as a top, without a piece like a blouse or shirt to complement it, making it the highlight of the look. For the style consultant, bralette is extremely versatile and democratic, since they are “beautiful and super feminine pieces, but that can compose a very “womanly” style look, as seen in the photos.
Bralette over the T-shirt
The piece can also be the highlight of the look when worn over the shirt. According to Laís, the bralette goes through several different styles and putting it on top of the t-shirt, makes the look more modern and creative! The style consultant warns that “the more closed collar (famous crew neck) will undoubtedly fit better because it will make the bralette and its details the focal point of the look and not the other way around.”
Bralettes over shirt
For a more sophisticated look, bralettes can also be worn over a shirt. For Laís, the bralettes are sensual and modern, making them more beautiful than normal tops, and of course, “totally change the face of production, taking it from the “basic” line to a few levels above.”
Bralettes with winter looks
Although the piece is often used with looks that match the heat, the bralette can also be combined in winter looks. You can mix a bralette overlay over a t-shirt and a coat to complete it, or wear it under a bomber jacket along with some sheer piece.
white bralette
The white bralette can be combined with other pieces of the same color, making the look delicate and feminine or with brightly colored pieces to make the look very modern.
Black Bralette
Black bralette is a super versatile piece that can be combined in different looks. Under transparency, like a top, over a t-shirt… Style consultant Laís recalls that when it comes to bralette, “there are no rules for X or Y body type to use them. The golden rule is to feel good, welcomed and wonderful with the piece you chose to make a difference in the look.”
