Welcome to the Padded Bras - Padded Cups section of the Bra Glossary.  In this section, you can learn more about bras.

Padded Bras / Padded Cups : A padded bra cup has some sort of padding in the bra cups.  This is often referenced as fiber-fill in the cups. This padding adds both size and definition to give more size and a proportioned look to smaller bust lines.  All padded bras have some sort of extra thickness added to the cups. The padding can be manufacturered of foam, silicone, air pockets, liquid, etc.  When shopping for bras, you may see the term graduated padding.  Graduated padding will be thicker at the base of the cups.  This helps add to cleavage.

If you would like to research bras further, you may want to check the bra definition section.
