My DD is 15. She has only worn sports bra since she started to need one. At what point do I encourage her to wear a regular bra? or do I just leave it alone and let her decide.

What's wrong with a sports bra? I would leave it alone. And if she really likes that style, check out True Bra. So comfortable.

If she is comfortable with a sports bra and it provides all the support she needs, don't worry. If she looks like she needs more support, suggest a shopping trip, and let her try a few other options.

Sports bras can be very supportive. If not for a good sports bra, I'd be a danger at the gym. But they give a very different look than a regular bra.

IMNSHO, leave it up to her. But if she's never tried a regular bra, you might want to introduce her to one, to show her the look it creates, then let her decide.

If she doesn't look good in a sports bra and it's not supportive enough, she needs a regular bra. Otherwise, she can wear a sports bra.
I wore sports bra's probably till when I got married.

I never heard of wearing sports bras for anything’s other than sports. Why not go to a regular bra? Gives much better shape and looks better under clothes.

I wear sports bras all the time except if I dress up nice. And they make in between styles too. Like a sports bra with dressier material and lining.

My mother bought me a “shabbos bra” and she let me wear whatever I wanted to school and everyday as long as for shabbos and weddings I wore the real one.
I’m rolling it only hit me now how funny this sounds! But she would occasionally say “maybe go put on your shabbos bra for this outfit”
