Best Strapless: Soma Enbliss Stay-Put Wireless Strapless Bra
What We Love: It does the impossible of staying up even without underwire.
What We Don't Love: The full coverage cups may not work with low cut tops.
A wirefree, strapless bra that stays up may sound too good to be true, but let this style from Enbliss change your mind. Cohen recommends looking for a strapless bra with a tall back closure for maximum support. "The taller the back closure is, the wider the band will be," she says. "A wider band will provide more support and smoothing properties than a narrow band."
This style by Soma has a four hook cushioned back closure making for a wide band. Full coverage contoured cups give a natural yet defined shape rather than a strapless uniboob. The bra also comes with removable straps that can be worn five different ways. If you love experimenting with different tops but don't want to give up the comfort of going wireless, this is the bra for you.Size Range: 32A-42DD | Colors: 2 | Materials: 71% Nylon, 29% Spandex

What to Keep in Mind
Size
Cups
Athletic: Wider breasts with more muscle and less tissue tend to have a problem with cup gaping.
Try: T-shirt style bras.
Asymmetrical: One breast is larger than the other.
Try: A bra that can give you an instant lift but also the option to incorporate an insert on one side to give your smaller breast a boost.
Bell: Breasts are slimmer at the top and fuller at the bottom.
Try: A full coverage bra that features wider, memory foam straps that provide support but never dig in.
Relaxed: Breasts have lax tissue and nipples pointing downward.
Try: A balconette style bra that has a slightly shorter cup for more fullness at the top.
East West: Breasts have nipples that point to the east and west, creating wide-set breasts.
Try: If you are struggling to achieve cleavage with certain tops, look for full coverage bras that will help bring your breasts up and together.
Adjustability
Materials
For the comfiest wireless bra, look for styles made out of breathable cotton, which also is a great material for t-shirt bras as it lies seamlessly under most clothes. Lace or mesh bralettes can be sweet and sexy and styled as a top. Many bras are made from moisture-wicking materials to help you stay dry and cool.
Your Questions, Answered
What are the pros and cons of a wireless bra?
This lack of support and definition isn't always a con. For instance, those with smaller breasts tend to find that wireless bras offer all the support they need without sacrificing any comfort. Or if you like to sleep in a bra, a wireless style keeps you supported without any wires poking or pinching your skin during the night. Sometimes it's an aesthetic choice to go with a wireless bra that offers a more natural shape like a lace bralette or seamless bandeau.
Can I wear a wireless bra if I have a large chest?
Can I machine wash wireless bras?
While wireless bras may seem more low maintenance than their underwire counterparts, it's best to double check with the individual product label on how to properly care for it. Some styles still need to be hand washed to preserve the shape and material.
