Ultimate Leather Bra Style Guide

Ultimate Leather Bra Style Guide

Here at Lux, I am focused on building the perfect killer bra for you. My work is to combine craftsmanship, gorgeous leather, and precise fit so that you feel immortal when you wear my leather.

This simple photo guide explains our features and benefits—using the same 36C middle-aged boobs in each photo so you can see exactly how the architecture of the bra changes the silhouette.

1. Underwired vs. Non-Wired

Underwires provide a tremendous amount of shape and support, scooping the breast into the cup for a modern look.

UNPADDED UNDERWIRED: Provides a rounded shape with a three-part cup, reminiscent of Freya brand bras.

LEATHER FULL CUP: Based on the world-famous Triumph Doreen, we purposefully kept the retro, pointy silhouette.

Padded vs. Unpadded

Unpadded: Because we use thin glove leather, there is always a hint of delicious nipple standing proud. For larger sizes, we may add an integral inner sling to support the leather.

Padded: Many believe larger sizes shouldn't wear padding—this is a myth. Our padded bras offer incredible support for larger cups, keeping the shape rounded and even.

2. The Balcony

Our best seller. Balcony bras sit on a band that goes right around the body, cupping the breast from underneath to create "two round orbs of delight."

LEATHER BALCONY BRA

What I really like about the balcony is that you get beautiful rounding and plumping but without too much cleavage.

3. The Plunge & Push-Up

Plunge bras are all about killer cleavage. They have a tiny bridge at the front and wide-set straps, pushing the tissue together at the centre and up.

LEATHER PADDED PLUNGE:

SUPERBOOST PLUNGE: Adds even more volume with a ridge of foam that typically adds two cup sizes.
