 why choosing the right bra matters

Wearing the right bra under her school uniform is more than just about appearance. Here’s what’s important:

• Supporting Growth: Bras provide essential support as her body develops, promoting proper posture and comfort throughout the day. 
• Enhancing Comfort: The right bra can prevent discomfort and chafing, especially during physical activities and long school days. 
• Boosting Confidence: Feeling comfortable in her uniform helps boost her confidence, allowing her to focus on learning and socializing without worrying about her attire. 

does your daughter need a bra for school?

Maybe your tween or teen has been asking for a bra when you go shopping, or brings up how all of her friends are wearing bras already. If you’re worried about her being too young for one, it’s important to have a chat and find out why she thinks she’s ready. She might be experiencing signs of breast development and wants a bit of support. At the end of the day, being “too young” isn’t really a concern - girls experience puberty at different rates, and getting used to wearing a bra earlier on might even help her feel more confident!
