Fabrics & Trims: The level of support will be determined by your fabric choices. Look for at least 10% spandex, and 30-50% stretch. A high level of spandex provides good recovery, but too much stretchiness will be less supportive. Using powernet as the lining fabric and/or adding foam cups can also improve support.

Lining: self fabrics listed above, stretch mesh, cotton/spandex, or powernet for larger cup sizes. Stabilizer (for straps): sheer cup lining, stabilized tricot.
