Bras provide support and shape to a woman's breasts to make outerwear look more attractive on a woman. However, they may not be very comfortable, and some types of clothing are best worn without them. If you are thinking about giving up a bra, you need to think about what clothes you will wear. In addition, it will be useful to familiarize yourself with a number of tricks that will help you hide your nipples so that they do not stand out under your clothes. If you don't know yet whether or not you should ditch your bra, here are some tips to help you make your decision.

Steps

Choice of clothes

Choose clothes that you feel comfortable in. The most important thing when choosing clothes to wear without a bra is how you feel in it. Don't wear anything that makes you uncomfortable or uncomfortable. Choose clothes that flatter your figure, suit your style, and make you feel beautiful and confident.

• For example, if a plunging neckline makes you feel shy, then this is not the best choice for you. Instead, opt for a top with an open back or a dress with straps.

1. Try on classic tops and dresses that are usually worn without a bra. There are some models of tops and dresses that do not go well with a bra, so it is wise to wear them without one. Try on tops with plunging backs or open backs, as well as dresses and tops with or without straps. Clothes that look better without a bra include:

   • dresses and tops with a deep neckline;
   • tops with lace inserts on the front, sides or back;
   • tops and dresses with a decorative slit on the back;
   • halter tops and bandeau tops.

2. Look for models with built-in bust support. Some clothing models have built-in bras, cups or elastic bandeaus and therefore do not need to be complemented with a regular bra. Try to choose clothes that have built-in breast support, which will make it easier for you to forego a bra.

   Think layered outfits. This is a great idea, as the lack of a bra often goes unnoticed, and is especially suitable for winter time. Therefore, if you are not completely confident in yourself and are a little nervous, try walking without a bra in winter to start.

   Nipple disguise

   1. Use nipple stickers to hide them. If you don't want your nipples to show through your clothes, cover them with special stickers. These stickers can be found in lingerie stores.

      • To use the sticker, remove the protective layer from it and stick it on the nipple.
      • If you purchased nipple tape, then each nipple is sealed with two pieces of adhesive tape crosswise.
      • Alternatively, you can try using silicone nipple covers. They are reusable and stick to the skin without any glue. Silicone overlays are compatible with clothing made of any fabric and with any type of neck.

   2. Wear thick tops. Try to avoid thin or sheer fabrics. Through thin fabric, especially light, nipples will be visible. If you want to wear a top or dress in a similar fabric without a bra, try wearing a tank top or combination under it.

      • Silk or satin tops may not be your best choice if you want to go braless as these materials are too thin and show more than you would like.

   3. Choose dark colors. Dark fabrics are less translucent in bright light or when wet. If you're going to be outdoors on a sunny or rainy day, it's best to wear a dark top, otherwise your nipples may show through your clothes.

      • Fabric with a pattern, especially a small one, will also help you hide your nipples.

   4. Use a special double-sided tape to fix the neckline. You can feel more confident if the neckline of your low-cut garments is securely taped to your chest. So the neck will not be able to accidentally move and expose the chest. The adhesive tape for the neckline will perfectly fix the neckline in the desired position.

   5. Use a surgical patch to support your breasts. The surgical patch adheres very well to the skin. You can buy it at a pharmacy. Keep in mind that this is a rather inconvenient way to fix the chest, so it's best to leave it in case of emergency. Here's how it's done:

      • Lean forward to lift your chest.
      • Apply a 30-40 cm strip of tape from the outer edge of one breast (near the armpit) to the outer edge of the other. The patch should be on the underside of the breasts. sides.
      • Stand up straight and place another strip of bandage horizontally on your chest so that it goes over your nipples and pulls your breasts together. The ends of the second strip of the patch should overlap with the ends of the first strip.

Bras provide support and shape to a woman's breasts to make outerwear look more attractive on a woman. However, bras may not be very comfortable and may not be suitable for certain types of clothing.

In addition, it will be useful to familiarize yourself with a number of tricks that will help you hide your nipples so that they do not stand out under your clothes. If you are still afraid to give up a bra, you should think about some specific questions, this will help you make a final decision on whether this style is right for you.

CLOTHING CHOICE

Choose something that you feel comfortable in. The most important thing when choosing clothes to wear without a bra is how you feel in it. Don't wear anything that makes you uncomfortable or embarrassed. Choose clothes that show off your body, suit your style, and make you feel great in them.

• For example, if a low-cut top makes you feel shy, then it probably isn't the best choice to wear without a bra. In this case, you might want to consider a plunging back top or a halter dress.

Try on classic tops and dresses that are usually worn without a bra. There are some models of tops and dresses that do not go well with a bra, so it is wise to wear them without one. Try on tops with plunging backs or open backs, as well as dresses and tops with or without straps. Clothes that look better without a bra include:

• dresses and tops with a deep neckline;
• tops with lace inserts on the front, sides or back;
• tops and dresses with a decorative slit on the back;
• halter tops and bandeau tops.

Look for models with built-in bust support. Some clothing models have built-in bras, cups or elastic bandeaus and therefore do not need to be complemented with a regular bra. Try to choose clothes that have built-in breast support, which will make it easier for you to forego a bra.

Consider using multiple layers of clothing. This approach to clothing is just perfect for refusing a bra, as it allows you to hide its absence. This style is especially suitable for winter time. Plus, winter is probably the best time of the year to try going braless (if you're not entirely confident and a little nervous about the change).

• A thick sweater is sure to hide your nipples, so it's a good choice if you're worried about your nipples showing through your clothes.
• You can also look good without a bra on a T-shirt over or under a long-sleeved turtleneck.
• In addition, jackets and cardigans are also great for layering without bras. They will be simply indispensable in cold windy weather and when it suddenly starts to rain outside.

NIPPLE DISCHARGING WITHOUT THE USE OF A BRA

Use nipple stickers to hide them. If you don't want your nipples to show through your clothes, put stickers on them. These stickers can be found in the lingerie section of most major supermarkets or in specialty women's lingerie stores.

• To use the sticker, remove the protective layer from it and stick it on the nipple.
• If you purchased nipple tape, then each nipple is sealed with two pieces of adhesive tape crosswise.
• Alternatively, you can try using silicone nipple covers. They are reusable and stick to the skin without any glue. Silicone overlays are compatible with clothing made of any fabric and with any type of neck.

Wear thick tops. Try to avoid thin or sheer fabrics. Your nipples may be visible through thin fabric, especially if it is light in color. If you want to wear a top or dress in a similar fabric without a bra, try wearing a tank top or combination.

• Silk or satin tops are not your best choice if you want to go braless as these materials are too thin and revealing.

Choose dark clothing colors. Dark fabrics are worse translucent in bright light or when wet. If you must be outside on a sunny day with some chance of rain, it's best to dress up in a dark top. Otherwise, your nipples may be visible through your clothes.

• In addition, fabric with a pattern (especially small ones) will also help you hide your nipples.

Use a special double-sided tape to fix the neckline. You can feel more confident if the neckline of your low-cut garments is securely taped to your chest. So the neck will not be able to accidentally move and expose the chest. The adhesive tape for the neckline will perfectly fix the neckline in the desired position.

Use a surgical patch to cover your nipples and support your breasts. The surgical patch adheres very well to the skin, so it is great for sealing the nipples and supporting the breasts when you are not wearing a bra. You can buy this patch at any pharmacy. The technique for using a surgical patch is shown below.

• Lean forward slightly so that your chest rises slightly. Stick a 30-40 cm long strip of plaster on the chest from the side of one breast (near the armpit) to the other side. In this case, the central part of the strip of the patch should pass from below, as if pulling the breasts together.
• Stand up straight and apply another band of plaster horizontally to your chest so that it passes through the nipples and also tightens the breasts. In this case, the ends of the second strip of the patch should overlap the ends of the first strip.
• Pasting the breast with a band-aid is not very convenient, so this procedure is best left for special occasions. However, for certain types of clothing, the occasional application of the patch may well justify some discomfort.

In today's world, some people are no longer embarrassed by nipples that show through their clothes, but many still prefer to hide them. If you are more comfortable hiding this part of your body, you will feel more confident in your clothes and in your body, making sure that the nipples are not visible.

Steps

How to hide nipples

Wear reusable silicone nipple shields under thin clothing. These small circle or flower shaped sticky pads are designed specifically for nipples, so they're great for low-cut tops and thin, lightweight fabrics that show your nipples. Place the patch with the adhesive side on the nipple and press gently. The most inconspicuous will be the overlays that are closest in color to your skin tone.

• Self-adhesive nipple covers can be purchased online or in lingerie stores.
• These pads should be washed with mild soap and water after each use and stored in their original packaging. Over time, the adhesive layer will be erased, but some overlays have a guarantee according to which they can be used at least 30-50 times.

1. At one time, disposable nipple covers for a solarium (stikini) may be enough. Like silicone nipple covers, stikinis are glued directly to the nipple using a special adhesive base. They are much cheaper and are sold in packs of 4-6 because they are intended for single use. Some prefer stikinis because they are less visible under tight clothing than silicone pads, which are quite voluminous and can protrude under a tight T-shirt. On the other hand, such stikinis may not be able to do their job if the nipples become hard.

   • Try both silicone pads and simple stikinis to find out what works best for you.

2. You can quickly make cheap nipple covers by cutting them out of your panty liners. Cut the pad in half, then cut out two matching circles to cover your nipples; during operation, do not remove the protective paper from the adhesive layer. Peel off the protective paper, stick on the nipple covers. When you take off your clothes, just throw away your homemade pads.

   • Like stikinis, these homemade pads may not cope with erect nipples - they will be visible under tight clothing. Try this option at home first before going out.
   • You can also use small self-adhesive dressings or adhesive tape.

Bras that cover most of the bust

1. A seamless smooth bra can be worn under regular tops. To prevent nipples from showing through under the usual fabric for T-shirts and shirts, you can find a bra with cups made of thick fabric; they are commonly referred to as "contour bras" or smooth seamless bras. They do not have extra filler, but at the same time the fabric is dense enough so that the nipples are not visible.

   • Padded bras cover the nipples more securely.

2. You can wear a strapless bra without a back closure under a top with a cutout at the back. This bra has only two cups, which are attached to the chest with an adhesive layer. Often there is a fastener between the cups in the middle, like bras that fasten in front. This fastener contributes to the push-up effect. These bras can be bought online or in a lingerie store.

   • To wear a strapless bra with back closures, lean forward and glue the cups to each breast, then fasten them together to form a hollow at the décolleté.
   • Wash the self-adhesive layer of the cups with soap and water after use. Dry the cups and put them in the original packaging so they can be reused.

3. For additional protection, you can cover the nipples of the stikini under a thin bra. If you prefer lace bras or thin bras, stick stikini over your nipples and then put on the bra. You can enjoy the look and feel of this bra without having to worry about your nipples showing through.

The very existence of breasts raised many questions in men. In 1300, the physician Henri de Mondeville wrote to the king about three reasons for placing the chest in this particular place:

1. It's the best way to see her.
2. The chest warms the heart.
3. Breast weight helps women maintain strength in their abdominals.

By 1840, knowledge of the breasts was still very poor. So, the doctor Asti Cooper said that the breast helps women of the lower class withstand very strong blows in fights (drunken beatings).

Let's take a look at what is now known about breasts and nipples and how to properly handle them.

Breast structure

The breast consists of adipose tissue, lobules, milk duct, Cooper's ligaments. The lobules produce milk, the milk duct delivers it to the nipple, and the Cooper's ligaments support and shape the breast.

Many women have breasts of different sizes, and this is normal. Paired organs are not perfectly symmetrical.

Facts about breasts and nipples

1. Nipples may not always be the center of pleasure.

Dr. Debbie Herbenick, author of The Coregasm Workout, says that nipples may not be the most sensitive spot, even on the chest. For example, the upper and sides of the chest in some people may be more sensitive, or even the most sensitive on the body.

Dr. Low made a separate video on how to properly touch the chest. Watch to understand the scale of missed opportunities.

2. Orgasm from nipple stimulation is possible

Researchers Sex on the brain: What turns women on, mapped out . from Rutgers University, using MRI, proved that nipple stimulation activates the same nervous system as genital and clitoral stimulation. True, with the effect of the impact on nothing can be compared. The nervous system is the same, but the strength of the impact is different.

newsscientist.com

So theoretically, an orgasm from nipple stimulation is possible, but it's still rare.

3. Evolution scored on male nipples

Women need nipples to remove milk and feed offspring. But the appointment of male nipples has long been the object of scientific interest. The fact is that nipples are formed in the womb before the genitals, since men and women are created according to the same genetic code.

At 6–7 weeks of gestation, a gene on the Y chromosome induces changes that lead to the development of the testicles, the organs that produce and store sperm. Around 9 weeks into pregnancy, the testicles start producing testosterone, changing the genetic activity of cells in the genitals and brain. But by this time, the nipples are already formed. Therefore, they remain a rudimentary formation.

Scientists believe that over time, the nipples in men did not disappear, because this is not important for evolution.

4. Nipples come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors.

Many women worry about the way their nipples look, but don't. Dark, inverted, big, small, brown, light - it's all the norm. Here is the whole variety of nipples in nature.

Equally diverse are the areolas - the colored areas of the skin around the nipples. They can be darker or lighter, very small or large. And areola hair is normal. During life, the amount of hair on them changes. And during pregnancy, the nipples and areolas can become larger and darker.

The small bumps on the areola are called the areolar glands, or Montgomery's glands. They are named after scientist William Montgomery, who first described them in 1837. They are also sometimes referred to as "gummy bears". What they are is normal, but their purpose is unknown.

Elise Port, head of breast surgery at Sinai Medical Center, says the areolar glands can secrete small amounts of fluid, but they don't have a special function. Another point of view is that due to the texture of the glands, babies can use them to find their way to the nipple. But this is just a guess.

5. Three nipples are not uncommon.

Harry Styles and Mark Wahlberg live with three nipples. Statistics confirm that a similar anomaly, which is also called a supernatural nipple, is more common in men. The rates range from 0.22% to 5.6%.

In theory, extra nipples can appear along milk lines that start at the armpits on each side and end at the groin.

Usually it's still one extra nipple. But there is a man Seven nipples in a male: World's second case report. with seven nipples and a man with a nipple on the foot Case report: ectopic nipple on the sole of the foot, an unexplained anomaly ..

6. During menstruation, the breasts become tight and the nipples hypersensitive.

Dr. Sherry Roth says this is due to an increase in the hormones estrogen and progesterone 1 to 2 weeks before a period.

If you are one of those who have PMS, then during menstruation, the breasts will thicken, become heavier and more sensitive. The nipples may even hurt from touching the clothes. It is best to avoid caffeine and tobacco during your period, as they can increase these side effects.

7. Implants won't interfere with breastfeeding

Implants are inserted behind the breast or behind the muscle, so they will not affect breastfeeding.

But the pleasant sensations from touch will decrease - both in the nipples and in the chest. Even a complete loss of sensitivity is possible. Research Nipple-Areola Complex Sensitivity after Primary Breast Augmentation: A Comparison of Periareolar and Inframammary Incision Approaches . also showed a relationship between the size of the implant and sensations: the larger it is, the lower the sensitivity.

Breast reduction can affect feeding, and it is almost impossible to predict this - a lot depends on the operation. If during it the nipple is moved, then the milk ducts will be cut out and breastfeeding will be impossible. However, more and more operations are done so as not to damage the nerves under the nipple and to ensure blood supply.

It's best to tell your doctor ahead of time if you plan to continue breastfeeding. Ask if the operation can be done in a way that preserves the milk ducts.

8. Breastfeeding is harder than it looks.

There is a myth about the naturalness and ease of breastfeeding. But in reality, everything turns out differently. If you're having problems, don't be afraid to ask your doctor for help or see a lactation specialist.

In addition, breastfeeding has consequences in the form of cracks and bleeding from the nipples. This is not harmful to health, but it can be incredibly painful, so you won’t want to breastfeed again.

The nipples during this period need to be looked after and moisturized. Consult your doctor and find out which ointment is best for you to use. If the ointment does not help, contact a specialist again. You may have a yeast infection. It is easy to cure, you just need to notice it in time.

Inverted nipples can also interfere with breastfeeding - it will be difficult for a child to cling to them. In this case, silicone pads for the nipples will help. They put pressure on the areola and nipples and break the small adhesions that hold the nipple inside.

9. Breast Cancer Is Genderless

Yes, the ratio is different: every eighth woman and every thousandth man can get breast cancer, but this is not a reason to forget about the problem.

If you feel that your breasts have changed, or you feel some kind of induration, be sure to consult a doctor. Watch your nipples. If they peel, crust, harden, secrete liquid, scratches appear on them, run to the hospital. These recommendations are important for both women and men.

Here you can see how to check the chest:

Also, touch your chest more often. Research has proven UC Berkeley and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. that it is not only pleasant, but also helps in the fight against breast cancer.

Many representatives of the fair sex appreciated this technique. What is an invisible bra?

Ease of use, comfort, the ability to wear any outfit without fear that part of the underwear will peek out from under the clothes, or be visible under the clothes. Or is it just a fashion gimmick?

Among the many models of underwear, various types of stickers on the chest occupy a fairly significant place. They are silicone cups with or without a clasp. Such women's items are suitable for almost any open dress, but you still need to try to “combine” them and see how they look together. Especially if it is a festive event, for example, a wedding, where everything must be perfect. They are invisible under clothing and are attached using the texture of the material itself.
