A well-fitting, comfortable first bra helps girls feel secure and confident as they navigate this new phase of life.
Our girls’ first bras are designed to be gentle on sensitive skin, itch-free, and easy to wear. We prioritize softness, breathability, and a natural fit that moves with the body throughout the day. So, whether your girl is just starting her journey of exploring first bras, or she's looking for a supportive first bra, Bleuet offers options that combine comfort with style.
Features of Bleuet’s First Bras for Girls
Soft & Reversible Design
Our first bras are made from high-quality, soft fabrics that feel gentle against delicate skin. Many of our styles are reversible, giving your daughter two looks in one, which adds versatility and value with every wear.
This feature makes it easier for girls to choose what feels most comfortable on any given day.
Dual Layer for Extra Comfort and Support
Designed with dual-layer construction, our bras provide just the right amount of support without sacrificing comfort. This layer system ensures that even the first-time bra wearer feels secure and confident, without experiencing any pinching or discomfort, which is extremely important when it comes to teen underwear and bras.
Itch-Free and Hypoallergenic
Sensitive skin calls for gentle fabrics. That's why every first bra that we offer is made of high-quality fabrics, which makes it itch-free. All of our bras are designed with minimal seams and are also tag-free, which reduces the risk of skin allergies and contact irritation.
We believe that comfort should never come at the expense of safety or environmental responsibility.

What to Look for When Choosing the Best First Bra
When choosing the best first bra for a girl, there are several important factors to consider to ensure she feels comfortable, confident, and supported. Here’s a guide on what to look for:
Comfort and Softness
The most critical aspect of a first bra is comfort. Look for bras made from soft, breathable fabrics like cotton, modal or bamboo that are gentle on sensitive skin. Avoid rough seams, tags, or scratchy materials that can cause irritation.
Proper Fit
A first bra should fit snugly but not too tight. It shouldn’t dig into the skin or cause discomfort. Since girls at this stage are still growing, choose a style with some stretch and adjustable straps to accommodate changes in size.
Support without Underwire
Support is important, but for a first bra, underwire is generally unnecessary and can be uncomfortable. Opt for light padding and soft cups, as well as seamless designs that provide gentle and light support.
Reversible and Versatile Styles
Reversible bras with dual-layer construction offer versatility, giving girls two looks in one and adding to their confidence. They also simplify wardrobe choices and encourage positive feelings about wearing a bra, which makes them the right bra choice.
Ease of Wear
Look for bras with simple, easy-to-use closures or pull-on styles. Avoid complicated hooks or clasps that can be frustrating for a young girl to manage on her own. Trust us, easy-to-wear bras will make all the difference!
Breathability and Hypoallergenic Materials
Breathable fabrics like bamboo or cotton promote airflow and reduce sweating. This is especially important for active girls, as well as girls with larger breasts. Hypoallergenic fabrics reduce the risk of skin irritation, and they can be used for various different styles of bras, like sports bras, training bras and even tank top variations.
Style and Design
Choose styles that your girl feels good wearing. Additionally, choose bras that work well with tank tops, shirts and clothes your girl wears on the regular. Fun colors, patterns, or neutral tones can help her embrace wearing her first bra with confidence.
Responsible and Safe Manufacturing
Select brands that prioritize environmentally friendly and safe manufacturing practices. This ensures the first bra is not only comfortable but also responsibly made, giving peace of mind to parents, knowing no harsh chemicals were used that could compromise the health of the wearer.
Age-Appropriate
Ensure the style and fit are suitable for your daughter's age and stage of development. Choose stretchy fabrics, elastic bands, adjustable straps and soft padding for ultimate comfort.
How to Measure for a First Bra?
Measuring for a first bra is an important step to ensure a comfortable and well-fitting choice for your girl. Here's a simple, step-by-step guide to help you get accurate measurements:
1. Gather the Right Tools
These include a soft measuring tape, pen and paper to note down the measurements and mirror - optional, but helpful.
2. Measure the Band Size
The band is the part that wraps around the rib cage just below the bust. Getting this measurement right is extremely important to ensure the perfect fit, no matter if you're shopping for a sports bra or a training bra.
-
Have your girl stand straight and breathe normally.
-
Wrap the measuring tape snugly around her rib cage, just beneath her breasts.
-
Ensure the tape is level all around and not too tight or too loose.
-
Note down the measurement.
3. Measure the Bust Size
The bust measurement is taken around the fullest part of the breasts.
-
Have her stand straight with arms relaxed at her sides.
-
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of her breasts.
-
Keep the tape level and snug but not tight.
-
Record this measurement.
4. Calculate the Cup Size
In order to calculate the right size of the cups, subtract the band measurement from the bust measurement.
The difference determines the cup size. Generally speaking, the measurements are as follows:
-
Less than 1 inch (2.5 cm): AA
-
1 inch (2.5 cm): A
-
2 inches (5 cm): B
-
3 inches (7.5 cm): C
-
4 inches (10 cm): D
-
5 inches (12.5 cm): DD or E, and so on.
5. Choose the Correct Size and Coverage
-
The band size is the total measurement of her rib cage (round to the nearest even number if needed).
-
The cup size is based on the difference between bust and band measurements.
So, for example, if your daughter's rib cage measures 24 inches, and her bust measures 26 inches, her size is approximately 24B.
Remember, for a first bra, comfort and proper fit are more important than exact sizing; many brands offer adjustable or stretchy styles to accommodate your daughter's growth.
What Type of Bra Is the Best Choice for "My First Bra"?
Generally speaking, training bras are a great choice for girls that are just starting to explore the world of bras. So, if you're not sure when do girls start wearing training bras, the answer is simple!
Girls typically start wearing training bras around the ages of 8 to 12. However, keep in mind that this can vary widely depending on individual development. When a girl begins to notice her breasts are budding, or starts noticing a slight growth in this area, it's time to go shopping!
And if you are not sure where to buy training bras, look for shops that offer style and size guides to make the whole experience more seamless.
