6 Bra Trends You’ll Be Seeing In Stores This Season
Just like the rest of the fashion world, the lingerie industry has its seasonal trends too. And with spring rapidly approaching, these up-to-date styles make for the perfect excuse to refresh your lingerie drawer with something new.
Ready for some chic temptation? Here are six of the biggest bra trends for Spring/Summer 2019:
Longline bras
Longline bras have long been popular (no pun intended) with retro-inspired lingerie brands. This season though, they’re simply everywhere. From longline bralettes to ones with padded, push-up cups, this new wave of longline bras are 100% modern. And there are plenty of reasons to love a longline bra – for one thing, the wider band leads to an extra-sturdy fit, which means enhanced support.
Sandrine Plunge Longline Bra | Sandrine Hipster in Ivory
Shop the look: Try the Sandrine Plunge Longline Bra for everyday wear and the glamorous Cora Unlined Longline Bra for special occasions.

Colourful embroidery
If you’re drawn to bras that are intricate and striking, you’ll love the current trend for bold, multi-coloured embroidery. It’s a look that’s similar to lace, but with added texture. And because of the way embroideries are made, it’s easier to weave lots of different colours into the mix for a truly eye-catching result.
Briana Padded Bra | Briana Bikini in Black Floral
Shop the look: The black version of the Briana Unlined Wire Bra has two-tone floral embroidery that contrasts fabulously against the fabric.

Vibrant colours
Adriana Lace Bralette | Adriana Bikini in Raspberry
Whether it’s an embroidery or a smoother fabric, S/S 2019 is packed full of vibrant colours. Lighter, brighter shades have always been popular for spring, but this season they’re especially vivid. Think fuchsia pinks, apple greens, and almost-neons. The perfect way to add a splash of pick-me-up colour to your mornings!
Shop the look: The bold azure of the Romina Unlined Wire Bra in Mediterranean Blue is especially eye-catching, as is the Sandrine Plunge Longline Bra in Wild Pink.

Bralettes
Oh yes, bralettes are definitely here to stay. They’ve been a trend for a while now, but it’s one that shows no signs of slowing down. These soft, wireless bras are perfect for those more relaxed days when you want something cute but above all comfy. Yes, they can work for full busts, and some of them can even be styled as outerwear.
Ciara Bralette | Ciara Bikini in Surf
Shop the look: The Adriana Lace Bralette is a chic, full-bust friendly bralette, while the Dalis Bralette is a more casual alternative that doubles as a soft but supportive sleep bra.

Unlined bras
This new trend seems to have sprung off of the back of the bralette one, offering a similar ‘lightweight’ feel but for those who prefer to stick with the support of an underwire. It’s all about padding-free, molding-free, lining-free cups – the sheerer the better!
Cora Unlined Longline Bra | Cora Bikini in Pale Blush
Shop the look: The Vanna Unlined Wire Bra has a particularly bralette-like vibe, while the 3-part seaming on the Enora Minimizer Bra and Carole Unlined Wire Bra makes these styles ideal if you’re after maximum lift and shaping.
Animal prints
If you’re a fan of the 90s, then good news – it’s officially back! Or at least, many of its fashion trends are. And one of the biggest of all is animal print – the eternally-popular leopard, yes, but also snake-print and zebra-print. It’s officially time to go wild with your lingerie.
While this particular trend hasn’t hit the Parfait shelves just yet, never say never. Leave a comment below if you’re a fan and would love to see it – or just let me know which of the other five Spring/Summer 2019 bra trends here is your favourite.
