CUP COVERAGE \ ‘kuhp ‘kuhv-er-ij

Definition: The extent to which a bra cup covers your breasts

Minimal Coverage

Minimal Coverage

Minimal coverage bras offer the least amount of cup coverage, typically emphasizing your natural cleavage.

Mid Coverage

Mid Coverage

Mid coverage bras fall right in the middle of the coverage spectrum, between minimal and full coverage bra fits. This coverage level provides adequate breast support while offering a more wardrobe friendly look.

Full Coverage

Full Coverage

Full coverage bras offer generous support over your breasts, and they’re not only for full-busted women. If you prefer a more modest and controlled fit, full coverage is an ideal choice.
