What size should my strapless bra be?
When buying a strapless bra, you need to go down at least one band size. You have to wear a size smaller than you would with a standard bra to compensate for losing the support you’d get from straps.
How do I measure myself for a strapless bra?
Measure across the bottom of your band, directly under the bust and across your ribcage, by bringing the measuring tape around your back to the front. Make sure the measuring tape is level and close to your body. Round to the nearest whole number. If your measurement is an even number, add four inches.

Should strapless bras be tighter?
A strapless bra should fit a bit tighter than normal. After all, it has to perform without straps and fit snug around your body. But there is a balance between a well-fitted strapless bra and one that is uncomfortably tight.
Why does my strapless bra keep falling?
If your cups are too small your bust will spill over the top, pushing the bra down. If they’re too big, the extra room will make the bra loose and, you guessed it, that bra will be slipping down again. Clearly strapless bras are a delicate balancing act, which is why it’s crucial to have yours properly fitted.
Why do strapless bras look weird?
Strapless bras are even tougher to get right. The band has to be tight enough to support both breasts, while the contoured cups have to accommodate breasts in their “resting” shape (aka when they’re settled at the bottom of a bra rather than being hoisted from above by straps). There’s also the smooshing problem.
When should you wear a strapless bra?
A strapless bra is a staple for plunging neckline dresses. If you like your bra to be kept hidden under low low neck dresses or blouses, this strapless is an excellent choice. Many strapless bras come with removable straps so that you can re-attach them whenever you want and can wear them with any outfit.
