What's the best bra to wear under an evening gown?
If you have fuller breasts, it’s important to wear a bra with the right support, especially if you plan on dancing the night away. Dancing can be just as intense as a good workout, and all that jumping and moving about can be uncomfortable or downright painful in the wrong bra. A good bra automatically improves your posture, creates a feminine silhouette under your dress, and gives you an instant confidence boost.
Which bra should I wear under my dress?
Evening gowns come in all styles, from sexy bodycon dresses to elegant strapless dresses and mermaid gowns. Finding the right bra starts with defining your dress style.
Strapless dresses and halter dresses
Many evening gowns are strapless or have thin straps or a halter neck style. What bra should you wear under a strapless dress? A bandeau bra with removable straps and excellent support for larger breasts is the best option. This style is also perfect for dresses with thin straps (you never want your straps to show). Whatever you do, steer clear of adhesive bras, as these provide no support for fuller breasts. PrimaDonna’s strapless bras are smooth, stylish, and offer impeccable support up to a G cup – the perfect alternative to adhesive bras.
Low-cut dresses
If your dress has a plunging neckline, choose a bra that will give you stunning cleavage. The perfect bra for a low-cut dress is one with deep-plunge cups with the perfect fit and lift.
