Soft Cup Developments
 
A practical design that does not use underwire for support. Traditionally regarded as offering less support than underwire models, soft-cup bras now offer competitive support and shaping. This is accomplished by using crisscross frames, inner undercup slings that rise no more than half the height of the cup itself and padding or lining the bra cup with 2-ply, molded, lined, or seamed material.
