13/f. I was bra-shopping for something strapless with my tube top, and I couldn't find anything that was 32A (damn...the bra companies expect everyone to look like Barbie!!!). The 34A was too loose, so I had to settle with the 34A pushup bra. What I need to know is, are padded bras stupid? I don't want to be tacky.

But i wouldn't worry about aslong as its not too different. Hope i helped! [ raidergrl1024's advice column | Ask raidergrl1024 A Question ]

I remember this problem, and I hated it.
You've found the right look here: Always opt for a strapless bra to pair with a tube top; no one likes straps.
There's nothing wrong with wearing a push-up bra, especially when you're doing it for a reason, not for the attention. They aren't stupid or tacky - in this instance, wearing one is the sensible option.
soccergurlie1220 answered Saturday June 17 2006, 11:17 pm: I personally don't think their tacky or anything but if someone else do they don't know unless you tell them right? Unless you go from having no chest to looking like Pamala Anderson lol But if you need help with finding a strapless bra for a 32A try stores like Victoria Secrets, Dillards, Kohls, JC Pennys or ask for a sales person to help you. Btw I hope you know this lol but (on mine at least) there are like 3 clips in the back to adjuct the tight ness have you tired that?

coffeexaddict answered Saturday June 17 2006, 10:57 pm: padded bras aren't stupid nor tacky, some girls think they are because alot have a bigger chest than most, so they don't have to deal with padding. A regular padded bra, with not too much, is fine & most can't tell. But don't overdo it with too much, otherwise people can tell easily.

betterthanyou_X3 answered Saturday June 17 2006, 10:23 pm: Actually, sometimes padded bras do look kind of stupid. You know when you're out and you can TELL that a girl is wearing a padded bra? That looks super dumb. But if there's just enough padding JUST to add shape then yeah, that looks good.
Pushup bras, on the other hand are totally okay because they don't look fake. All they do is push your boobs up. If you have to wear a padded or pushup bra because a 34A is too small then definatly go with the push up. [ betterthanyou_X3's advice column | Ask betterthanyou_X3 A Question ]
fabulous11 answered Saturday June 17 2006, 10:17 pm: No its fine. As long as its not too big so it makes it lok like your trying to make your boobs look bigger.
KELLY_ELIZABETH answered Saturday June 17 2006, 9:25 pm: no they arent stupid., they just make your boobs look bigger and rounder. its not tacky either. it will actually most likely look better too, because your semi-small chested. and i dont agree, they arent uncomfortable, atleast for me when i wear them. good luckk
Advicelady6798 answered Saturday June 17 2006, 8:17 pm: Padded bras are not stupid they are sometimes even comforable. And padded bras make you have that round look and guys love the round look. They are also good for forming your boobs into a way that you like. I wear a padded bra and its comfortable and doesnt make my boobs look saggy or anything [ Advicelady6798's advice column | Ask Advicelady6798 A Question ]
