The Athelete - Smaller Sizes

The Athelete: Your athelete is always on the go and doesn't have time for frilly designs or needless lingerie - she wants something that's pretty and practical, and that can work in the bedroom or out on a run. We've chosen these pieces to suit her need for simplicity, but also to flatter that body she's been working so hard for.

Smaller Sizes: These pieces are especially chosen for women of smaller bust sizes or generally of a smaller size. Your choice isn't limited to just these items, though, check the other size categories as many sizes will overlap.

Puma Active Lingerie


Puma has moved into "bodywear" over 2005 and their active lingerie is quite striking. This is a smooth and seamless bra triangle without underwire support. It is semi sheer and in black or red microfibre. There are two choices for matching knickers - a thong (pictured), or a boyshort. Sizing is S-M-L so it is likely perfect for a variety of smaller cup sizes - prices from £42 for the set. If you're shopping at Figleaves, don’t forget your coupons to save £20 or $20 off!

Wacoal T-Back Bra

The Wacoal T-back bra combines a smooth, seamless cup bra with a functional strap system that works well under open sleeve garments. This is an underwire bra with neat inlays in the shoulder strap above the cups. This bra has no padding or lining and comes in a wide variety of sizes including 32 B-D. The Lingerie Athlete will like this cotton like bra for active day to day wear. You can find it at Freshpair for $38.00, and you may want to check out the matching knickers.

 

Diesel Logo bra

This shelf bra from Diesel is unlined and made of stretch mesh. It offers light support and a bold DIESEL logo across the front. The matching knickers carry the brand on the back side. It is available in orange and white. Get it in size S only and on sale for $23.99 at Bare Necessities.
