Bra Categories
Front closure Bras
Bras that have closures, usually hooks and eyes, on the front rather than at the back are known as front closure bras.
They are removed or closed by a clasp located at the center where the two cups join each other. However, most of them feature only one non-adjusting clasp at the center front.
The center clasp does not provide the support or support as a bra with central panel does.
However, the front closure system limits all scopes for adjusting size and thus it becomes a herculean task to get the right fitting one.
These bras give a smooth looking back under clothes and are much easier to put on and take off.
Most of the Racer-back styles have front closures. They remain flat and invisible under clothes, the straps are usually slip-free, when done in racer back style.

Full coverage Bras
They are the typical practical bras for everyday purpose that provide full coverage as well as support to your breasts.
A full cup bra offers both more coverage and more support than a demi or balconette cup bra.
They cause no crease or indentation along the top of your breasts.
A full coverage bra covers the nipples fully, eliminating all traces of nipples under your sheer and body hugging clothes.
They are more preferable over demi bras by women with larger breast size and by nursing women who need ample of support to keep their things in place. Some of them may feature under-wires too.
Lined cups may give additional support and added opaqueness to the cup.

Mastectomy Bras
Mastectomy are designed for those who have undergone a mastectomy surgery to get one or both of the breasts removed due to breast cancer.
The bras cups have inbuilt pockets to hold prosthesis in place and to stimulate the shape and existence of breasts.
A full cup mastectomy bra may make a prosthesis look natural and provide comfort to the sensitive area and help you get a natural silhouette. Some may have cups filled with fiber.
