Beat the heat: 9 of the best cooling bras to fight sweat and odour in humid weather
The temperature is at an all-time high in Singapore and the heat and humidity doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon. Besides dehydration and fatigue, it sure is uncomfortable feeling sticky and sweaty practically all the time. For women, it also means dealing with "boob sweat", which accumulates particularly in the underboob area and cleavage. This can lead to rashes and odour, and not to mention unsightly sweat stains on clothing when the moisture seeps through your bra. While we can't stop the sweating, wearing the right bra can really help ease the dampness and discomfort. There's a variety of cooling bras out there these days, all designed to keep your chest area feeling dry and comfortable, as far as possible. Some of them even incorporate patented fabric technologies – these include temperature-regulating, anti-odour, moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties, on top of high breathability. You'd notice that the fabric on such bras is typically thin, lightweight and stretchy, which are all features that will boost comfort and wearability. They also tend to be lightly lined, which means they might not do much for you if what you're looking for is a substantial lift. In this heat, however, we'd say comfort wins over everything else – if you are of the same mind, here are some cooling bra options that are worth trying. HANES X-TEMP WOMEN'S WIRELESS T-SHIRT BRA, S$21.98 Two key features have been combined in the fabric used on this bra, to provide superior comfort with regards to fit and heat. X-temp is the brand's patented technology, which adapts to the wearer's body temperature for a cool feel, while ComfortFlex Fit allows the fabric to stretch effortlessly and mould to one's unique shape. UNIQLO AIRISM WIRELESS BRA, S$29.90 Uniqlo's Airism fabric is a hot favourite in tropical climate and is the ideal lightweight choice for underwear. What's more, this pullover style is available in quite a variety of colours, as well as sizes from XS to 3XL. Available at Uniqlo. I'M IN AIR-EE MULTI-WAY BANDEAU SLIM BRA, S$39.90 As described by its name, this bra is made with airy-feeling, sweat-absorbent fabric that promises to be soft, smooth and comfortable. It's available in a variety of styles besides the bandeau, and also provides support and adequate coverage with light, thin padding – an essential for beating the heat. XEXYMIX COOLING SEAMLESS BRA, S$58.60 This bra is made of fabric lighter than that of typical seamless bras, apparently – it feels practically weightless, as if you're not wearing anything. With its thicker straps and higher back, this style is also ideal if you need a bra that's more supportive. Available at Xexymix. AIMER FEEL COOL WIRELESS BRA AND PANTY SET US$45.99/S$59 Enjoy the icy feel of this bra that's designed to be cooling and breathable. Bonus: The same fabric is also used for the hiphugger underwear that comes with it, which is made in a lightweight and seamless style with high stretchability. ANDAR ALL-DAY FIT COOLING BRA, S$65 The silky, soft fabric has an ice-cold feel against skin, providing relief in this heat. This bra also has high breathability and is also quick-drying – important features for odour control. The built-in pads provide ample but not overly thick coverage, and is perforated for ventilation. Available at Andar. VEIMIA COOLING SEAMLESS BRA, S$70 A seamless, hot-weather staple that will not create unflattering lines that show through your outfits, this bra is made with super-thin fabric that features antimicrobial properties to keep odour at bay. The padding provides comfortable yet adequate support and is designed with a honeycomb structure for excellent breathability. Available at Veimia. MODIBODI SWEAT-PROOF BRA, US$54.99/S$70.70 This patent-pending creation is made with ModiDry fabric, designed to lock odour away in both the cups and under-band, and help regulate body temperature and absorb sweat. It also boasts moisture-repellent outer layers that help stop sweat leaking through to your clothes, and also a Power Mesh design on the back that provides breathability. . THIRDLOVE TEMPSYNC T-SHIRT BRA, US$78/S$100.30 This is said to be the world's first thermoregulating bra, made with a patent-pending fabric that is infused with natural minerals to actively balance body temperature. The brand claims that it begins working before you start to sweat, which makes it a good bra not just for hot weather, but also those experiencing menopause-related hot flashes.

‘A remarkable educator': Former principal of Anglican High, Yusof Ishak Secondary principal dies
SINGAPORE: The former principal of Yusof Ishak Secondary School, who led the school in its move from Bukit Batok to Punggol, died on Monday (Aug 18). Madam Maureen Lee, 59, was the school's principal from 2018 to 2024. Before that, she was the principal of Anglican High School from 2010 to 2017. Both schools posted tributes to her online on Tuesday. No details are known about her job position this year or the cause of her death. In a Facebook post, Yusof Ishak Secondary School said that its former principal was instrumental in leading the shift of the school campus from Bukit Batok to Punggol and laying the foundations at its new campus. 'A bold and visionary educator, she led the team to push new frontiers with what school and learning could be like. Her inspiring leadership has inspired many educators to go beyond to try new ways to engage students,' the Facebook post read. 'Her heart embraced staff, students, parents and the wider community. In all that she did, she showed what it means to believe, inspire and nurture growth in those under her care.' In 2023, CNA interviewed Mdm Lee about being a principal. When she took on her role at the start of 2018, students at Yusof Ishak Secondary School were told the same year that they would be the last cohort at the school's Bukit Batok campus before it relocated to Punggol. During her time there, she made herself easily available to the students. Under her 'Dear Mdm Lee' initiative, students got the chance to write letters to her, sharing their struggles with her or even suggestions for improvements to the school. She promised to reply to each letter, she said at the time. When asked at the time what she thought was her students' impression of her, Mdm Lee laughed and said that they might see her as someone who was like a friend or a confidante, because she responds to their letters. "I'd say I'm a nurturing principal, open to their ideas. And sometimes, they may even be crazy ideas but, well, (there) is a sense of wonder in every kid," she added. Before taking on leadership roles in schools, Mdm Lee was a physics teacher at Henderson Secondary School for 13 years. She became vice-principal at Balestier Secondary School in 2001 and moved to Kranji Secondary School to become its principal in 2005 before she went to Anglican High School. Mr Chan Chun Sing, former Minister for Education, took to Facebook on Tuesday to pen a tribute to Mdm Lee, noting that he had met her many times when she was principal of Yusof Ishak Secondary School. 'We lost a remarkable educator yesterday. Madam Maureen Lee led with compassion, vision and deep care for her students and colleagues,' he wrote. 'Her legacy will continue to guide us. Our thoughts are with her loved ones and those whose lives she has touched.'
