Wardrobe Investment Tip #3: The Lovely Longline
The ultimate strapless bras are called longline. We say that because they will always stay up. Thanks to the construction and support of a longline bra, women larger than a D cup size can always feel confident and supported while going strapless. Identifying which event you should pair each type of longline bra with is easy. For events in which you know you’ll be sitting for most of the night we say go with a longline bra that stops right above the natural waist to ensure all night comfort. The full torso longline bras are best for your more formal events, where standing will be your prime position. If you have a specific dress you’re trying to hunt down a bra for, with a special silhouette, you can use our special tools on each bra to see how far the cups will come up and how each bra will look under different tops to guarantee nothing but your beautiful dress or top is showing.
Owning a convertible bra is like having several bras in one. Think of a convertible bra as the mutual fund of your wardrobe portfolio: you get a little bit of everything. The straps are detachable and can cross in the back, loop around your neck or just come off completely. These bras are perfect for wearing uniquely cut dresses or tops. We all have that one dress we avoid because it has a weird, yet beautiful neckline that just can’t seem to hide your bra. If you’re traveling this holiday season we recommend packing just one of these beauties to slay all your holiday looks, plus you’ll save room in your suit case for toting home goodies. Two of our favorites are the Elila Molded Strapless Bra, available in band sizes 34 – 46, cup sizes D – I(D6) and the above Marie Jo Tom Strapless Bra, available in band sizes 32 – 38, cup sizes A – E(D2).

Plunging necklines can be a task to wear confidently. Every woman wants to be supported, perky and covered all at once. This is easily done with the right plunge bra. These bras have very deep necklines, in comparison to your everyday t-shirt bra; they also come in many shapes and sizes for every woman’s body. If you wear a smaller cup size you might appreciate a little padding, while larger busted women will enjoy multi-part cups for additional support. Bottom line, these bras allow you to flaunt your curves with confidence, which assures a plunge bra to be a sound investment. The above bra is the Wacoal Amazing Assets Contour Underwire Bra, available in band sizes 32 – 38, cup sizes B – DDD(D2), if you need a larger band and cup size the Sculptresse by Panache Sasha Molded Plunge Underwire Bra, available in band sizes 34 – 46, cup sizes D – GG(D7) is perfect.

We saved the best for last, meet the ultimate side bulge buster! Side smoothing bras are amazing for pairing with shapewear to rock that super tight bodycon dress. Featured above, the Wacoal Ultimate Side Smoother Contour Bra, available in band sizes 30 – 42, cup sizes C – G(D4), has a seamless underwire with tall innovative crisscross sides at the underarm for a completely smooth look under your tight clothing. This bra also comes in a wire-free option as well if you are not an underwire fan. Several strapless bras offer the side-smoothing technology as a feature as well. To identify those bras, look at the sides; if they look taller than normal, it’s safe to say they offer additional support as well as a smoothing feature. Important note: if your band feels too tight and is creeping up your back in a normal everyday bra, it’s likely you’re wearing the wrong size, for more information on bra sizing click here.
