“I’ve been searching for a strapless bra that is comfortable, doesn’t pinch or push up under arm skin, isn’t padded, keeps shape, and lays flat. This bra is perfect! I researched and read countless reviews on many bras and tried many on. This bra had minimal reviews but I took a chance and so glad I did. I will definitely buy it in another color. It runs a bit small so I bought a 38 over my normal 36. The 36 would have been way too tight. The cup size is basically true to size so I stuck with my normal C cup. I highly recommend! It’s comfortable and soft.”— Nordstrom reviewer

“I love this bra! Straps are included so it can be used as a strapless as well as an everyday bra! The underwire design offers excellent lift and shape, providing a natural-looking silhouette without compromising on comfort. The cups are expertly contoured to provide adequate coverage and a gentle push-up effect, enhancing my natural curves beautifully. The fabric is incredibly soft against the skin. I appreciate that the bra is designed with minimal seams, reducing the likelihood of chafing or discomfort. I can confidently wear it for extended periods without any issues.”— Nordstrom reviewer

“This bra is nothing short of miraculous. I’m a 32F and never thought I could wear strapless or thin straps. This bra makes it possible. It’s a feat of engineering. I wouldn’t jump rope in it but I wore it all day and adjusted it only once.” — Nordstrom reviewer

“This is my first Wacoal bra and I am IMPRESSED. I’m a 38G and had to fix the girls maybe twice the night I wore this bra. I was so shocked considering strapless with that bra size is basically impossible to function in without having to fix everything every 2 minutes. Structured but not restricting, I will be reaching for this bra again.” — Nordstrom reviewer

“This bra fits perfectly and is great for a deep plunge shirt or dress. I love the fabric, it’s soft and feels good. I’ll definitely by more!” —Skims reviewer

“Diamonds have their 4 Cs, but this No-Show Bralette is a gem with 4 Ss: Soft, Smooth, Supportive, and SEAMLESS, this bralette is so comfortable that I don’t even feel like I am wearing it! I bought one in-store and loved it so much that I purchased 4 more online!”—Gap reviewer

“I was recommended this brand by the seamstress at the bridal salon where I had my wedding dress fitted. I originally ordered a different bra (actually 2) that came up as a first hit on Google. That bridal bra would not stay on as the adhesive was extremely weak. Not to mention that I had to wait 3 weeks until it arrived from China. I also ordered a cheap off-brand bra on Amazon and the fit wasn’t right for my dress as the sides were too long and stuck out. I was hesitant to try other bras thinking I’d have to go braless. So glad I decided to try NuBra after all. This one feels like it’ll stay on and actually hurts a little when I pull it off my skin. Haven’t worn it out yet but very happy with the quality so far. I was in between B and C sizes and based on reviews and fit recommendations I went with a C and it fit great! Watch the videos and put it on as it says in the instructions. Took me a couple of tries to get it right.” —Amazon reviewer

“Comfortable fit and the plunge is excellent for low cut shirts/dresses, yet still provides excellent support.”—Victoria’s Secret reviewer

“This is the only strapless option I have found that is comfortable and works! I love how it’s customizable with whatever I want to wear. Watching the videos for putting them on was really helpful. After going through one pack I’m still not consistent in the shape & lift that I achieve, but I had no problem immediately ordering another pack!” — Nood reviewer

“As a 34DDD, I have never found a strapless bra I got along with — until now. This stays high on the chest, the ‘neckline’ is flattering for lower-cut shirts, and it’s snug and secure but doesn’t dig in. I recommend this to everyone I know, especially those with similar chest sizes that struggle with strapless everything.”—Nordstrom reviewer

“I have tried countless strapless bras, all being generally uncomfortable with a laughable amount of support. I’ve gotten to the point where I dread wearing anything that would require a strapless bra since I could never find one I liked…until now! I am a big fan of Lively’s t-shirt bra because of the thickness of the bands along with the mesh. This has the same band and I love the amount of support it offers. The best thing is that the cups are lightly lined and full coverage. I could wear this bra all day (and have) and be comfortable the whole time. One thing to mention is that I sized up one size in the band, I found that my usual size was way too tight, so sizing up one size was perfect for me.”— Lively reviewer

“I am usually a 32B and ordered a 32C after reading the reviews and it fits perfectly. I’m glad I ordered up for the extra cup coverage. The band is a smidge tight but it’s okay as it sits low on the back; perfect for wearing with camis as it’s low in the back and scooped in the front. It’s very sexy and comfortable.”— Shopbop reviewer
