Why models and influencers don’t wear bras

As a Frenchwoman, I beg to differ. No one I know in my native country fails to wear correct underwear in public.

And no, braless is not a trend. You can live in your own echo chamber if you want, as long as you know you're in one! Seems to be a fundamental truth you have to recognize about yourself. Also rather important for politics...



My own echochamber? I'm simply stating that it's currently a trend. You disagree, which I guess puts you in your own echochamber, right?

Are most of these influencers younger and haven't had kids/breastfed?

Me too. And I’m a 32C. I could get away with it but it would make me uncomfortable.

I was just in the UK at a college campus and a substantial minority of the women were bra-less; definitely more than what you see here.

No, I am pointing out that the world is large and that there are microtrends all the time. When I was little in France, a lot of women and their mother and grandmother were topless on French beaches. Now there's a more conservative trend and fewer women are topless these days. This is an example of a historical trend you probably were not aware of. You need to realize that the trend you are describing is only noticeable to a very tiny subset of the world population.

Point: you don't need to follow trends or overthink them, because there will always be more people who are unaware of trends than there are people following them.

I’m a DD and can’t go without, but I switched to unlined bras for a more ‘natural’ look lol

Same. I haven’t worn underwire in a long time. Not as supportive, but I’m more comfortable.

I grew up in the Mediterranean, and yes, there were tons of women who did not wear tops at the beach in the 80s and early 90s. You don't see that as much these days. I will say though, that women in my country, especially in the summer do not wear bras as much as American women do. Most of my American mom friends (even the thin/small chested ones) would NEVER go out without a bra... but these are also the same women who would never wear a two piece to the community pool. Most Americans are still kind of prudish and conservative in that regard.

I said euro influence because I grew up in Germany and more women don’t wear bras there.

We were hiking in Zion natl park and even there, about 50-70 percent of the young women were not wearing bras. If you have a small chest you dont need them and there is still a great deal of emphasis on being thin. I think a a lot of ppl also use tape to lift the breast from underneath but no bra is the "look" and a bit of nipple through the shirt even more so. Should look like two round balls pushing through your shirt. I dont think its an approaching middle age woman's game though.


Huh?? I promise you the demographic of women who embrace the braless look are not bothering with this tape business you speak of, much less "a lot of ppl."

The only time, maybe, women are using tape on their breasts is in formalwear.

Maybe because bras don't fit under a lot of fashions and they don't need the support?

I show even through padded bras, especially when cold. I don't think that's trashy or attention seeking, am I supposed to wear metal armor lest you know I am a woman?
I am glad young women and I've noticed middle aged women are leaving the bras behind. It looks comfortable and healthy.
