For several years, I thought I couldn’t wear backless dresses or tops with plunging necklines because it would mean I had to go braless. For reference, I wear a size DD bra, and while I’m all for freeing the nipple, I personally need a little support if I want to feel comfortable.
I had always been skeptical of bra alternatives, but one day, I decided to give them a shot and I’ve never looked back.
Of course, not all bra alternatives are created equal— and there are several solutions out there depending on your needs.
If you want to go braless and are looking for support solutions, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve tried them all and have rounded up the best bra alternatives on the internet. Each option is water- and sweat-resistant, safe for sensitive skin, and above all, provides support for large busts.
Wondering which bra alternative is right for you? Here’s a quick breakdown.
Boob tape: This is a roll of skin-safe “tape” that can be cut as needed to fit the desired area. With this option, you can fully customize placement, lift, and cleavage.
Sticky bras: These adhesive, backless cups are a no-fuss option and a popular solution. They help in achieving cleavage rather than lift.
Adhesive patches: Think of these as pre-cut pieces of boob tape. They typically come in a tear-drop shape that helps achieve your desired lift.
It’s time to finally wear that low-cut dress you have stashed in the back of your closet. These bra alternatives give you the coverage and support you deserve (and are big boob-approved).
