Welcome to the Seamed Bra Cup section of the Bra Glossary.  In this section, you can learn more about bras.

Seamed Bra Cup : A seamed cup bra has a cup made with 2 or more fabric pieces.  Seaming (using sewing seams) on a cup allows more variations in cup shapes. Vertical and diagonal cup seams add to the cups support and tend to be more flattering to one's breasts.   A bra cup with seams can be made out of many more fabrics such as lace, silk, satin, etc.  Seamed cups (especially 3 section cups) will almost always be more supportive than a molded cup.

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