Best Strapless Bras for Every Shape and Size

The straps in a bra act like an anchor and also help a little with lifting and supporting the breasts. However, a strapless bra is strategically designed to provide you with the much-needed support without any shoulder straps. This bra style is an excellent solution to problems like visible bra straps or annoying slipping straps. Strapless bras are the ideal option to be worn under tricky outfits like tube tops, bardot dresses, off shoulder gowns, spaghetti tops, slip dresses etc.

While we very well know about the benefits of a strapless bra, I have come across many women with bigger bust sizes who are pretty apprehensive about the idea of wearing a strapless bra. They are usually surrounded by questions like – “What if it falls down?” “Do they even make strapless bras my size?”. Trust me, ladies, I have been there, and I’ve got it all figured out.

Women of every shape & size can effortlessly don a strapless bra. All you need to know is to pick the right kind of strapless bra for your breast shape.

If you have a smaller bust, fret not; all types of strapless bras will work well for you. You can pick up padded and push-up strapless bras. If you have a large breast, you need to examine the shape of your breast carefully. Many women have breasts with heavier bottoms; they can opt for an underwired bra for a gentle lift. If your breast goes in the east-west direction, you can choose a push-up bra as it moves the breast issues upwards and inwards for no show effect.

●  Bandeau Strapless Bra

Bandeau style strapless bras work best for small-busted women. It is a very simple design that often lacks any form of ideal support, but the fit of a bandeau strapless bra is a class apart. Bandeau bras can be styled as a strapless bra and a bikini top. My recommendation would be a padded bandeau bikini top from the H&M brand. The bandeau-style comes with removable cups which shape the bust and lend good comfort to the breast. These cups can be removed or inserted as per choice.

●  Underwired Strapless Bra

The best way to shape up saggy breasts in a strapless bra is to choose an underwired strapless bra style. A gentle lift of the bosoms with an underwire can make your breast look rounder and fuller. The strapless bra is wired for maximum support and helps in sculpting the breast while lending a neat look. Angie padded strapless underwired bra from Hunkemoller brand would be my recommendation.
