1. Free People Adella Bralette
Free People’s Adella bralette is a cult-favorite bra that the brand makes year after year in an array of colors. It has some light encapsulation and a thick lace band around the bottom, which doesn’t offer a ton of structure but allows it to offer more support than many other lacy bralettes. The two straps, although thin, also help in that area — one strap goes straight back while the other crosses behind. The back of the bra is a soft, stretchy, thick band of material that feels substantial. It’s the perfect bra for layering under just about everything — bodysuits, V-neck tops, dresses and button-downs. It comes in handy, especially in the summertime.
Pros: Offers light encapsulation. Crossover straps and a thick underboob band offer moderate support. Material is soft and stretchy. Available in sizes X-small to X-large.
Cons: Material is somewhat delicate.
2. Cosabella Say Never Balconette Bra
It’s a balconette shape, which means there is wired support under the breasts but the cup is cut more horizontally at the top, rather than in a triangle shape or plunging style. This can be worn with any top that is a little lower cut, not quite a deep V-neck. The top of the bra and the straps are both a stretchy type of lace, which contributes to it feeling like a fancy bra for everyday wear.
Pros: Great to wear with low-cut tops. Made of stretchy lace for comfort and style. Comes in sizes 30B to 36E
Cons: May not be the smoothest style under tops and dresses.
3. Spanx Bra-llelujah Full Coverage Bra
Many super supportive bras have thick back closures, which are great for keeping things in place but aren’t always the easiest to put on or the most comfortable to wear. A front hook allows you to put this bra on in a flash without sacrificing one bit of support. Also, the thick straps distribute the support more evenly and comfortably, so you won’t get any pinching around the armpit area throughout the day. Grab it in four neutral basics to go with everything.
Pros: Finished in a super soft, hosiery material. Customized back zones provide additional support without compromising comfort. Available in sizes 32A to 34DDD. Option in sizes 36C and larger come with added strap support
Cons: Straps are not adjustable.
4. Running Girl Sports Bra
Running Girl’s sports bra is one of the many sports bras this writer bought from Amazon during the height of the pandemic for working out from home. Turns out, I may never go back. This fabric is super soft — soft enough to feel comfortable in, even when you’re not working out — and the sturdy, criss-crossed straps across the back are both a fun detail and offer an extra source of security.
Pros: Made of sweat-wicking material to keep you cool and a touch of lycra for stretch. Includes removable cups for custom coverage. Cross-back design offers support and freedom of movement. Available in sizes X-small to 3X-large.
Cons: Runs small.
5. La Perla Souple Push-Up Bra
Courtesy of the French lingerie experts at La Perla, the Souple push-up bra has a classic shape with smaller-sized adjustable straps and a lacy back closure. The cups have padding on the inside for a push-up bra fit. The fabric is where the true luxury is, featuring a blend of cotton, elastane and nylon, which makes for a bra that is stretchy, soft and strong.
Pros: Made of breathable cotton. Includes stretch leavers lace inserts for enhanced comfort and style. Padding is removable
Cons: Should not be placed in the dryer; air dry only. Only goes up to a size 36D.
6. Niidor Adhesive Bra
This is not the kind of bra you wear for support, but the kind of bra you wear out of necessity. It works best with strapless or backless dresses and tops — or anything that’s slinky and would be dangerous to wear braless. It comes with sticky adhesives to make sure it stays put, and you can choose your cup size so that the cup covers the most real estate without getting in the way of your outfit.
Pros: Made with strong adhesive. Includes a clear front clasp to create more dramatic cleavage. Available in sizes A to F. Easy to clean.
Cons: May be somewhat difficult to remove.
7. Wacoal Red Carpet Strapless Underwire Bra
Available in sizes up to a 40G, it has the classic strapless style with underwire structure and full-coverage cups. The hook-and-eye closure in the back is thick and supportive with four clasps for optimal support. There’s also a small bit of silicone lining inside the cup at both the top and bottom to help the bra stay secure without pinching your skin in the process. This is the kind of bra you might not wear every day, but when you need a bra without straps that get in the way.
Pros: Comes in sizes 30D to 44G. Silicone strip under the bust helps keep the bra in place. Hidden stays anchor and stabilize sides and back.
Cons: Hand wash only.
