Are Built-in Bras Right for You?

Whether or not a built-in bra is right for you depends on what type of built-in bra you choose and what kinds of activities you’re doing. 

Finding a great bra that gives you the support and structure you need, plus the comfort and style you want, can feel challenging. With so many bra types out there, how do you know what will work best for you?

The Benefits of Built-in Bras

There are many benefits to wearing a built-in bra over other bra types. They’re convenient, comfortable, and versatile. However, the majority of built-in bras on the market are simple shelf bras that provide minimal support, but worst of all, they’re not stylish.

With SheBird, you get the best of both worlds because every SheBird top, tank and dress features our signature SheLove built-in bra. Style and comfort made for women by women. 

They’re convenient. SheBird wardrobe essentials make getting dressed in the morning effortless—tanks, tee, dresses, and more!

They’re stylish: Always streamlined and chic, you can count on SheBird to deliver high-quality pieces that instantly elevate your style.

They’re comfortable. No additional straps, no bra bulges, and no irritating underwires, SheLove built-in bra solutions give you all the lift, separation, and support you need without compromising your comfort. 

They’re versatile: From morning yoga class to lunch with friends or a busy day at work, SheBird built-in bras are made to keep up with your busy lifestyle.

A Simple Shelf Bra 

One of the simplest built-in bras styles is a shelf bra. Delivering a light level of bust support that gently hugs you, the Barely There built-in bra in our Dreamy lite-Lift Tank is comfortable enough to lounge and sleep in and supportive enough to run a few errands in. 

“Love this top! Super comfy, flattering fit, comfortable yet effective shelf bra

I have it in two colors and sleep in them!”

With no cups or padding, wearing a built-in shelf bra means you'll have seamless support that's soft and thin, yet perfectly smoothing and streamlined.
