FAQ
What age should a girl start wearing a bra?
It depends on your daughter.
Most girls start thinking about their first bra between ages 10–13, usually when:
- They’re developing and want a bit more coverage
- Crop tops no longer feel enough
- Or they simply want to feel more comfortable and confident
How many bras does she need?
We recommend starting with 2 to 3 bras.
That way she has:
- One to wear
- One in the wash
- One ready to go
If she’s active or playing sport, having 3 to 5 bras makes life easier (and avoids the “nothing clean” moment before school).
How to choose her bra size?
The easiest way? Go with her usual clothing size.
For example:
- Wears kids' size 10 → choose 10/12
- Wears kids' size 12 → choose 12/14
Our bras are designed to be:
- Stretchy
- Flexible
- Adjustable as she grows
And if it’s not quite right, we offer free 30-day exchanges across Australia, so there’s no stress getting it perfect first go.
Are Sassh bras padded?
Sassh bras come with removable pads.
That means she can choose:
- With pads → for extra coverage and confidence
- Without pads → for a lighter, more natural feel
It’s all about giving her options as she figures out what she feels most comfortable in.
Will this show under school uniforms?
If her school uniform is white or light-coloured, we recommend choosing a beige bra, like The Essential in beige.
Why beige?
Because it’s closer to skin tone, it blends in and is much less visible under white tops; unlike white bras, which can actually show through more.
If her uniform is darker (like navy, green, or maroon), then she can absolutely wear any colour she loves.
All Sassh bras are designed to sit smooth under clothing, so she can feel comfortable and confident throughout the day.
What's the difference between a crop top and a first bra?
Crop tops are often:
- Thin
- Light support
- Not designed for developing bodies
A proper first bra (or training bra) like Sassh is:
- Designed for growing girls
- Offers gentle support + coverage
- Smooth under school uniforms
- Made to move with her (school, sport, everyday)
It’s that in-between step, not too much, not too little.
