How It Works: Qups in Regular Lingerie?
At Proud Breast, we often say that Qups fit into ‘regular lingerie.’ But what exactly do we mean by that? And what should you look out for when shopping for lingerie? Let’s explain!
What is ‘regular lingerie’?
‘Normal lingerie’ simply refers to the bras you can buy in regular lingerie stores. This means you are not limited to special prosthetic bras but can choose from a wide range of styles, brands, and models. However, a Qup does not fit into every bra, so it’s useful to know what to look for.
What should you look for in a lingerie store?
1. Molded cups
A molded bra is ideal for Qups. The molded cups provide extra support and ensure that the shape remains naturally beautiful. Just like a natural breast, the Qup fills the space in the cup perfectly, giving you a symmetrical look under your clothing.
2. Good fit
The fit of your bra is crucial. Important aspects include a higher center gore, with or without underwires depending on the location of your scar, and models that fit higher towards your shoulders. Many new designs feature a wide triangular lace shape leading up to the shoulder strap, which often works well and prevents gaping. Make sure your Qup stays securely in the cup without shifting up or down. Try different sizes and models to find what suits your body best.
3. Minimizers
Minimizer bras automatically cover your entire breast. These bras are a great choice if you’re looking for extra support and a subtle, natural look. They distribute pressure evenly and provide a flattering silhouette.
4. Material and comfort
Choose lingerie made of soft, breathable fabrics that feel comfortable against your skin. Especially if you have sensitive skin or scars, skin-friendly fabrics are a must.
How to secure a Qup in regular lingerie?
Some women prefer extra security to keep their Qup in place, especially in bras without molded cups. There are various ways to firmly secure your Qup in your lingerie:
- With fashion tape: A quick and easy way to keep your Qup in place.
- With a pocket: Some bras already have a pocket where you can place the Qup.
- With snap buttons or Velcro: Convenient options if you want to remove and reattach your Qup frequently.
- With a small pin: A discreet way to fix your Qup.
- Sewing it in: A permanent solution for extra security.
