Comfortable strapless bra, anyone?

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 

I am in desperate need of a comfortable strapless bra and can't find one anywhere!  I'd rather not have underwire, but I definitely want something to avoid "headlights" (if you know what I mean).  It's summer time and I want to wear tanks and going braless is definitely not an option for me.  Any suggestions on bras would be greatly appreciated!  TIA!

Sorry, I don't know of any, but if all else fails, you might be able to use a regular tube top type bra and then insert a padded cup over each breast inside the bra to hide your nipples. You can take the pads out of an old bra that needs to be thrown away or even an old bathing suit.

That's a great idea!  Thank you!

Depending on how much support you need, you might like a bandeau-style bra. Or, you can get a colorful spaghetti strap sports bra and make it look like you are layering 2 shirts, which I think looks cute!

That's a good idea. You can get the cups at any sewing store, too. I've actually sewn cups into dresses because when I was pregnant with DD, she stretched out my ribcage so much that I couldn't find bras in my size at the time. I LOVE the spaghetti strap bras at Walmart, too. They're $10 for three and come in white, black, grey, pink, red, and light blue. They go up to a 40 (a/b/c) and work pretty well when you don't want to plunk down a ton of money for bras while you're pregnant.

EDIT - I think long line bras are THE most comfortable when it comes to strapless. I've yet to see one that fits a preggo belly, though. wink1.gif
