more of the breasts that will certainly turn heads.
As we all know, not every bra style will suit
every bust, so thanks to Marie Jo’s expertise and
considerable experience, the brand has ensured that
there is a style to suit everyone in the collection.
For example, there is a whole array of push-up bras
in smaller cups, featuring removable pads, wider
underwires and ingenious padded cups so that any
woman can show off her natural looking cleavage
regardless of her cup size. Also, an all-padded
balconnet is now available for women with less firm
breasts. The gore between the cups is positioned a
little higher to create an impeccable fit, while the
new styles with wider underwires are also ideal
for less firm breasts. This is the perfect lingerie
for showing off your gorgeous cleavage in period
costumes at that fancy dress party.
And on the subject on bras, the question of why
do we wear them and whether they are necessary
has been poised many times. Lingerie manufacturer
Van de Velde, which produces the PrimaDonna,
Marie Jo and Andres Sarda brands, are fully aware of
these questions and have decided to set the record
straight.Their answer:“Bras are more than a fashion
accessory; they contribute to a woman’s general
wellbeing. A high quality bra is made up of around
45 different parts, which ensure that the breasts get
the right support where they need it. Breasts have a
specific structure and demand special care.”
The company has also dismissed certain
myths and has clarified that:
√
Breasts cannot be firmed up with
exercise
Regardless of what anyone claims, there are no
muscles in the breasts so they cannot be firmed up
with exercise and therefore need external support.
√
Breast tissue needs to be protected from
damage
If the breasts are not adequately supported, minor
tears can develop in the tissue due to activity or
simply as a result of the force of gravity. These will
accelerate the rate at which the breasts become
flaccid.
√
Breasts need “support”
The weight of the breasts should not be
underestimated.Wearing a bra is essential to ensure
your breasts get proper support. The back wings
play a key role in this, and if you don’t wear a bra,
there can be so much strain on the back, neck and
shoulders, that it can affect your health or wellbeing.
The declaration that a bra makes us feel better
is also supported by the fact that bras are the best
way to shape your breasts in the most attractive
way with the right look and the right style, it acts
as a foundation for your outfit so without the right
lingerie even the prettiest dress suffers and as lingerie
is often the first thing we put on when we get up in
the morning, a pretty, comfortable set makes your
day and ensures you are more aware of your body
and gives your self-confidence a boost.
So for beautiful, supportive and sexy breasts,
make sure you wear a good quality bra!
