Wearing a Bra on Any Occasion Is Certainly in Order

This summer another celebrity was added to the list of Hollywood actresses who is being criticized for not wearing a bra. She is Gwyneth Paltrow, and it was obvious in her attire that she deliberately left her bra at home when she accepted her Annual Renaissance Award at the Gene Siskel Film Center in Chicago. Even her modest Alexander McQueen cream, high-necked dress did not help her look less daring. Gwyneth’s boobs are not that large, but still people noticed her obvious lack of support.

This incident proved once again that not all celebrities are always ready for the camera once they stepped out of the house. Some of them who have been in the news for not wearing a bra are Miley Cirus, Lindsay Lohan, Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Rebecca Hall, Sharon Stone, Britney Spears, Janet Jackson, Kristen Stewart, and so on.  I do not think these Hollywood celebrities looked at themselves long in the mirror before going out their doors. It could have saved them embarrassment in cases of wardrobe malfunctions.

Miley Cirus even tweeted that she was doing a healthy thing by going bra less; and mentioned the study made by a French researcher that bras can damage delicate breast tissues (although she has been going around with no bra even before the results of the study came out).  It is apparent that Miley did not read the conclusion of the report saying that the results do not apply to all women.

However, the issue of whether to wear or not to wear a bra is more about style and comfort, rather than damaging breast tissues.  When you wear either a suit or a t-shirt or any stylish clothes, wearing a bra will give you the best appearance.  In some cases, when you wear an ill-fitting or wrong size bra, there is nothing added to your sense of well being overall, just like not wearing a bra at all. You wear a bra to enhance your look under clothes, in whatever occasion you are going.  The bra supports what you put on top of them and assures you that you are looking your best (in addition to comfort and support of course).

It is becoming common among the celebrities not to wear a bra when attending social events, even if people who see them are shocked by their styles. It’s not a problem if they go topless on a beach cause the rest of the world is doing the same. But in a formal occasion especially in your honor when you show a nipple bump or the shape of your actual boobs, it could be natural for people to give a not-so-pleasing label.

Some people wear bras 24/7, it is OK if you don't want to as breasts do need to relax and rest a bit. Just don’t forget that if you’re going out the door, even if you just need to check the mail box, or buy something from a nearby grocery store, you need to add a supportive and covering bra on.
