A Bra For Every Special Event

By Tiffany Hart
Sep 25, 2008
Fashion is a wonderful thing, but it really does not fit well into our daily lives. When you are hustling the kids off to school, your outfit is the least of your worries. The same goes for bras, with the exception of those special evenings.

While you can get away with general looks in daily life, special occasions demand particular styles. You would not wear a blazing red low cut dress to a funeral nor would you wear a demur black dress to a ball. The same goes for bras.

This raises the rather obvious question of which brassiere goes with which event? Should you be wearing a plunging piece to a business holiday part or something a bit more reserved?

A quick word on some extreme bust measures. Duct tape. Models wear it on the catwalk and for magazine shoots. You should not do so. It is very bad for your skin and hurts after a short amount of time.

There is a far simpler solution. There is one bra that can be used in a wide variety of special occasions. It is known as the convertible bra. It goes with everything from a full blown gown to a little strapless number.

Unlike a convertible car, this bra does not come down per se. Instead, the straps that go over your shoulder are not only adjustable like a normal bra, but can be unclipped. This means you can reconfigure them to just about any style.

Before you get worried about support issues, it is vital to understand how a bra should work. It should provide your breasts with support from below like a shelf. It should not yank them up like a sling. In short, the straps can be moved about.

Assume you are wearing a dress with one shoulder strap. You can remove the bra strap for the bare shoulder. The other strap is left on and rides up over the shoulder that is covered. You get security without compromising your look.

This bra will even save you money. Assume you want to wear a strapless dress. You need a strapless bra, right? Nope. You can just remove both straps from the convertible bra. Remember, support comes from the bottom, not the top.

It might sound like this bra is the ultimate answer and can be worn in every possible situation. Unfortunately, that is not the case. It does not cut the muster if you are playing sports or have a plunging back on a dress, but that is about it.
