We said we’d get in great push-up bras and we DID!
With underwire, moulded cups and lots of padding in sizes 8, 10 and 12 A, AA and B, we give you smooth T-shirt bras for your daily outfit, strapless bras for that special dress or top and adorable funky sets just because every girl likes pretty underwear.
Some of our faves:
1. Double Gel Bra by After Eden
Priced at AUD64.95 and available in black and white, this bra has underwire, smooth moulded cups, feminine double straps and gorgeous lace wings for that sexy touch. It’s great under sexy tops for special nights out, or even your daily shirts (so you can go about your day with confidence!).
And it’s not called ‘double gel’ for nothing!
Available in 8-12 AA, and 10-12 A and B, this bra will certainly double your cleavage! Gel padding tends to be firmer than liquid filled bras (like the Panache one below), but is also lighter! This lends itself to applications such as strapless bras where you don’t have the hanging support of shoulder straps (unlike the heavier liquid pads which are supported by straps.
(Double Gel Strapless Bra also available at our store)
2. T-Shirt Liquid-Filled Bra by Panache Atlantis
At AUD64.95, this bra is an investment but by golly, a good investment it is.
With underwire and smooth cups, this is great under any T-shirt. The gem is the liquid-filled cups! It’s chock full of the stuff (kinda fun to press it and feel it squish around) to give this bra the unique ability to mould to your body and up your cup size while looking so natural and feeling so comfortable. Liquid padding accomodates easily, making it comfortable for the many different shaped busts that women have. Thanks to clever design, they also don’t “slosh” about once put on. This bra is available in 10-12AA and B, and 8-12 A, and in latte and white.
3. Sabina Doomm Doomm bras
All the designs are so cute we couldn’t choose a fave!
They all come with underwire, moulded cups and so much padding they seriously create boobs out of nothing. Our fashion bras contain an amazing amount of fabric/foam padding. These must be seen to be believed. We can guarantee if you have no boobs that these will give you boobs- they will increase your cleavage by 1-2 cup sizes. Sometimes, one of the concerns of using padding, particularly fabric/foam padding is it giving your bust a “fake” look. This happens where the padding is applied to the wrong areas of your bust and adversely affects the shape of your bust. From experimenting on all our small busted friends, we find that it’s imperative that the right size and fit is achieved first. Once you have the right size, the padding then works on the correct areas of your bust. Get the right size, and you usually don’t have to worry.
We couldn’t capture it on camera, but believe us when we say the padding is actually a bit thicker than the After Eden double gel bra above (and you thought that looked like a lot)!
Definitely the bra for you if you like super padding. It comes in 5 cute designs and in sizes 8-12AA and 8-10A, priced at AUD59.95 a set or AUD49.95 for the bra only.
What kind of padding is suitable for me?
If you feel you have ‘wider’ breasts, you may want to bring them in as well as push them up to create cleavage. In this case we would recommend liquid bras which mould better to the body, or bras which have padding on the outer sides of the cup as well.
If you feel like you ‘don’t have a lot to push up’ and have tried push-up bras which have padding only at the bottom half of the cups to no avail- then we’d recommend the Sabina Doomm Doomm bras as their padding is generally more evenly distributed within the cups. Simply lean forward when putting on the bra- make sure your breasts are sitting properly in the cups and that the band is sitting flat against your skin beneath your bust. Then adjust the bra to make sure it’s hugging the outer sides of your breasts to bring them for maximum cleavage. We have plenty of AA cup customers gushing about this range!

SugarchilliTV is launched! Our first episode is a guide to some of the great products that cater to small busts and petite frames. For too long Australia has been without access to these great products – but now they’re here!
The Sugarchilli story started as a personal experience when we struggled to find push up bikinis that gave enough support via underwire, padding, or moulded cups.
We soon realised that we weren’t alone. Many of our friends also complained about the lack of products and the internet forums were also not dissimilar. It was completely puzzling as to why small busts weren’t catered for!? If bigger women have a large range of products that allow them to shape and dress how they want, why can’t smaller women too? And it wasn’t just small busts, women with petite frames couldn’t find products that were sized for them.
Frustrated that there were no current solutions, we took matters into our own hands and created Sugarchilli Bras & Bikinis.
To start off all our current items have push up technology. But we’ll introduce additional products later on such as soft cups or non-underwired bras. Of course, they will remain handpicked to suit small busts and petite frames.
So what are the little differences that make a bra great for small busts or petite frames?
(We’ve actually written a detailed post with many pictures here - “push up bras for small busts” but you can read on for a quick summary)
To start off, in our basics range you’ll find that they either contain liquid, gel or foam padding.
Liquid padding is fantastic in an everyday bra because it really gives you a natural shape and is super comfortable. Liquid padding accommodates easily, making it comfortable for the many different shaped busts that women have. Thanks to clever design, they also don’t “slosh” about once put on. Liquid padded bras are also commonly known as water bras.
Some of our bras contain gel padding, which tends to be firmer but also lighter. This lends itself to applications such as strapless bras where you don’t have the hanging support of shoulder straps (unlike the heavier liquid pads which are supported by straps).
Our fashion bras contain an amazing amount of padded foam. These must be seen to be believed. We can guarantee if you have no boobs that these will give you boobs.
Sometimes, one of the concerns of using padding, particularly foam padding is it giving your bust a “fake” look. This happens where the padding is applied to the wrong areas of your bust and adversely affects the shape of your bust. From experimenting on all our friends, we find that it’s imperative that the right size and fit is achieved first. Once you have the right size, the padding then works on the correct areas of your bust. Get the right size, and you usually don’t have to worry.
Whoever thought of applying the same push ideas to bikinis is a genius! All our current bikinis come from a Japanese brand (more brands coming in next spring) and all of them come with underwire, padding, inserts, and moulded cups. We’ve actually written post just about bikinis with plenty of photos to show“How to flatter a small bust with bikinis”. Have a look if you’re interested.
Over the next few months, Sugarchilli will be adding more high quality products to the catalogue and continue to make sure that our Aussie women aren’t missing out on all the great things that are available around the globe.
And for this, we need your help. We’ve got a pretty good idea of what products are still needed but if there’s been something you’ve had trouble looking for – why not let us know! Post your idea/want/need/rant in the comments below and we’ll keep our eyes out for you!
