How to wear a backless dress with a normal bra

Want to go backless without your bra showing? Try a low back converter –this handy bra solution means you can have the support you get from your favourite bra without any straps showing – genius!

How does a low back converter work?
By attaching to the hook and eye of your bra, the converter wraps around your body and fastens again at the front in a lower position.

Other bra solutions for backless dresses

No outfit is off limits with boob lift tape! If you’re looking for bras to wear with open back dresses, this tape offers medium support with minimal coverage so you can feel secure and confident.

Nipple covers stick on and help to stop your nipples showing through your clothes. They can be worn as an alternative to a bra with a backless dress or for when you want to cover your nipples with close-fitting or sheer clothes.

What bra can I wear with a racerback dress?

Racerback bras, like the Jenna bra are great for hiding your straps as well as stopping your straps from slipping off your shoulders. For a more versatile style, give the Etta Bra a go which has a J hook a so you have the option to make it a racerback or wear it as a standard bra.

If you’re wondering how to wear a racerback dress with a normal bra, you can simply use a racerback clip for the same effect.

What bra do you wear with a low-cut dress or top?

Plunge bras have a low centre front which creates a deep V shape making them the perfect partner for outfits with plunging necklines. For wide or square neck tops, half cups are a great option as they are cut straight across and lower on your boobs than a balconette bra. Both will disappear under low cut outfits while offering the shape and support you love.

What underwear should I wear with a tight dress?

Looking for a smooth silhouette under a figure-hugging outfit? T-shirt bras disappear under close-fitting tops and dresses for a no bra look with all the support of a well-fitting Bravissimo bra.
Padded bras are the best option for a smooth look under your clothes. They are made from thin foam to create a smooth shape with the added bonus of providing nipple coverage. You can choose from a moulded T-shirt bra, like the Idol bra, for a completely seam-free look, or bras like the Satine bra with barely-there seams for a smooth line under your clothes.

What type of bra to wear with off shoulder tops, halter necks and spaghetti straps?

Strapless and multiway bras are bra-drobe essentials when it comes to making every outfit an option. The much-loved Luxe strapless bra by Curvy Kate is super versatile as it has detachable straps so you can wear it for support under lots of different outfits.
