What are the advantages of an underwired bra?

The underwired bra is much more than just a lingerie accessory; it's an invaluable ally for those seeking the perfect balance between comfort, support and aesthetics. This type of undergarment plays an essential role in providing optimal support for the breasts, distributing weight evenly to prevent pain and enhance daily well-being.

It's not just about physical comfort. An underwired bra can also transform your silhouette, refining your lines and enhancing your natural assets. The variety of styles and designs available means you can choose the one that best suits your tastes and needs.

Beyond their aesthetic appeal, the quality materials used to make these bras guarantee durability and longevity. Follow us through this detailed guide to discover all the facets of underwired bras, their benefits and how to properly care for them to preserve their shape and effectiveness.


Comfort and support

Comfort is the cornerstone of every good bra. Just imagine putting on your bra in the morning and almost forgetting about it, so perfectly does it hug your shape without ever getting in the way of your movements. This is precisely what we aim for with our underwired bras at Scandale. The secret lies in a reinforced technical structure, which ensures optimum support and softness.

The importance of breast support

A good bra should offer support consistent with the volume and weight of your breasts. Our models feature wide, comfortable elastics for an impeccable fit, and foam-reinforced straps to prevent pressure on the shoulders. Want to avoid that unpleasant feeling of a straitjacket? Our wide hook-and-loop fastenings ensure that your back stays in place without compressing.

Weight distribution and pain reduction

Have you ever experienced back or shoulder pain after a long day? The right bra can help. Thanks to our high-performance lining system, the weight of your breasts is evenly distributed, reducing painful pressure points. As Pierre Steinecker explains: "There's no point in having a straitjacket. It may give you support, but it won't let you breathe. We firmly believe that good support should never be at the expense of comfort.

Our bras are designed to feel like a second skin, thanks to the use of technical materials such as elastane for good stretch, or fabrics like Coolmax and Meryl that efficiently wick away perspiration while keeping your skin dry. By choosing our products, you're opting for the perfect balance between support, comfort and breathability.

Aesthetics and silhouette

Refining and enhancing the silhouette

Aesthetics also play a crucial role when choosing a bra. At Scandale, we know how important it is for you not only to be well supported, but also to feel beautiful in your underwear...

Aesthetics and silhouette

The underwired bra not only offers optimum support, it also enhances the figure in an unrivalled way. Thanks to its reinforced technical structure, it ensures harmonious distribution of volume and weight on the bust, while remaining gentle on the skin. Imagine wide, comfortable elastics that support without compressing, foam-reinforced shoulder straps to avoid marks on the shoulders, and enlarged hook-and-loop fastening for perfect back stability. Every detail is designed to combine comfort and aesthetics.

Refining and enhancing the silhouette

A well-designed underwired bra instantly refines your silhouette by giving your breasts a natural curve. Underwires enhance the bust while elegantly sculpting your curves. Ever tried on a fitted dress with an underwired bra? The difference is striking! The underwired model brings that little extra that transforms your look, giving you a straighter posture and greater confidence.

Variety of styles and designs

One of the great pleasures of underwired bras is their infinite variety of styles and designs. Whether you're looking for something elegant for a special evening or a discreet model for everyday wear, you'll always find one that meets your expectations. From delicate lace to technical materials like elastane for perfect stretch, each model is designed to combine refinement and functionality.

Take, for example, the high-performance linings used in some bras: they offer not only real support but also a second-skin feel thanks to the refined materials used. It's no longer a question of choosing between comfort and aesthetics; today, you can have both!

Durability and longevity

When you invest in an underwired bra, you're looking not only for comfort and aesthetics, but also for durability. High-quality bras, like those offered by Scandale, are built to last, thanks to carefully selected materials and meticulous construction.

Materials used for underwired bras

High-quality underwired bras use resistant fabrics such as microfiber, reinforced tulle and stretch lace. These materials not only feel good against the skin, but also provide excellent resilience. For example, elastane is often used for its ability to stretch while returning to its original shape, guaranteeing constant support over time.

Wide, comfortable elastics also play a crucial role in bra longevity. They maintain their elasticity even after numerous washes, ensuring that your bra retains its perfect fit. Foam-reinforced straps not only add comfort but also prevent premature wear.

Shape maintenance and preservation

Proper care of your bras is essential to prolong their life. We recommend hand-washing or using a machine-wash bag to avoid damage caused by rubbing against other garments. Using mild detergents preserves delicate fibers and maintains the elasticity of technical materials like Coolmax or Meryl, which efficiently wick away perspiration while keeping your skin dry.

And don't forget to alternate between several bras to avoid excessive wear and tear from continuous daily use. Store them properly in your drawer, taking care not to bend the underwires to retain their original shape.

So, by choosing bras made from sturdy materials and following a few simple care precautions, you can enjoy the exceptional comfort and support they offer for a long time to come.
