Shelf bras are not the same as open-cup bras, which have no cups at all. See open cup Lingerie Yandy

The cups of a shelf bra have a quarter or less height than a standard bra cup.

  • most support from any bra will come from its band, as so with a shelf bra
  • the shelf bra has wider set wires and does gently hold and gives support
  • some have a lightly padded underside for lift and support


Will a shelf bra work for bigger busts?

Sure, shelf bras are a little less functional than other bra styles.

Still, they do offer support and carry your boobs nicely.

If you are a D, DD, or larger, this bra can be great on you.

Add some extra playfulness to your shelf bra! Combine them with some fancy sexy pasties if you like.
