The best push-up bras aren’t solely for the small-chested seeking a fuller look. Designs abound for all bust sizes, offering the promise of superior lift, while addressing other needs simultaneously, like cleavage, smoothing, support and exceptional comfort. But if you’re uncertain about what makes a push-up bra great and whether or not one is right for you, we’ve got you covered. What is a push-up bra? “A push-up bra is a padded bra with a graduated pad that’s thicker at the bottom of the cup and thinner towards the top of the cup,” says Heather Viskovic, director of merchandising for the bra category of Bare Necessities. “It’s beneficial for the smaller-busted woman because it can lift breast tissue helping to fill out a bra, especially one with demi coverage.” “You can also wear [a push-up bra] to make your bust look bigger than it is,” she adds. Super push-up bras or extreme boost push-up bras with lots of padding are popular for this type of look. Push-up bras come with demi or full cups (the latter offering less cleavage but a more dramatic look)
