There's been a lot of talk about bralettes replacing regular bras this season. But I don't think structured bras are going away anytime soon.
And it's not because bralettes only fill the lingerie needs of small bust sizes. It's obvious they don't provide much support for fuller busts. But there are benefits to small cup bras. Bras are, after all, about looking your best in your clothes. And a bralette can't always provide the right silhouette under all that you wear.
One of the more frustrating aspects of shopping for small cup bras is finding styles suitable for the adult woman. Many seem more appropriate for the first time or adolescent bra wearer. Or it's all about push-up and extra padding. Small cups don't necessarily want all that extra heft. They, like all sizes, want options.
Here are 18 small cup bras for AAA to C cups. While I tossed in a few push-up bras into the mix, many feature none or optional removable padding.
