That really depends in part on how ‘busty’ you actually are. Women generally under a C-cup can try this backless strapless bra from Fashion Forms. It’s great for tricky tops where you can’t have a bra band showing in the back! However, not really supportive for larger busts. Another option is having foam cups sewn into the top. You can get them at almost any fabric/craft store and a seamstress can sew them in! it’s a great way to have ‘built-in’ coverage without having to worry about showing any straps!
ELLEN – care to weigh in on this too?
Sure! As a person who has never been able to go braless, I am particularly pleased that today’s trends actually support the idea of letting your bra show. If you want to wear these styles and are over a D cup, my suggestion is to wear a bra that either color matches the dress or coordinates so well it appears to be an “on purpose” look. This, however, will require a certain level of confidence. Do what makes you feel best!
