What is a T-shirt Bra?
and what works for big boobs?
A T-shirt bra is a comfortable everyday bra that creates a beautiful rounded shape under your clothes. They can either be moulded, seamless bras or might have barely-there seams without lace or embroidery, so they don’t show through your tops. You might be wondering “what do T-shirt bras do”? They give you a smooth shape under your clothes and are the perfect flattering foundation to look fabulous and feel supported – a true lingerie drawer staple!
Are moulded bras padded?
Moulded T-shirt bras can be padded or non-padded bras – both options have their perks! They are made from a single piece of fabric so are totally seamless through the middle of the cups. Padded moulded bras offer more nipple coverage where non-padded options have a more lightweight feel – the choice is yours!
What is the difference between a T-shirt bra and a normal bra?
T-shirt bras are seam free, smoothing, and disappear under your clothes where regular bras have more seams to create the different bra shapes and styles you love to choose from. You may have lots of different favourite styles for every possible occasion, but T-shirt bras are lingerie-drawer essentials for when you want a bra to disappear under your top!
What bra can you wear under a white shirt?
If you want your bra to be invisible under light-coloured clothes, try to match your bra as closely as possible to your skin colour. We have lots of skin tone options available online and in our shops – it’s always a good idea to pop into a shop to try them on if you can!
You can also try gold bras and even red bras can disappear under a white top – you’d be surprised which colours work!
What are the different styles of T-shirt bras?
A padded, moulded style bra is a popular T-shirt bra option as the foam inside the cups is super smoothing! The cups can be made from different types of foam depending on the thickness you prefer. If you like a really lightweight foam the Rebecca bra is a great choice, or go for the Idol bra) for a more padded style.
If you like a non-padded bra but still want the seam free look, we have a choice of non-padded, moulded T-shirt bras too! The Smoothing Balconette bra) or the Porcelain Elan Non-Padded bra both give you a smooth silhouette in your favourite non-padded look.
Fancy an alternative to a T-shirt bra that isn’t seamless? We’ve got options! If you struggle to find a seam free bra in a size or shape that works well for you, our range of T-shirt bras with barely-there seams are a great option to try to achieve the smoothing effect of a seamless bra. The Fusion bra is a popular non-padded plunge style with flat seams.
What are the benefits of wearing a T-shirt bra?
T-shirt bras are versatile! If you tend to wear lower cut tops, a half-cup or a plunge style is a good option as the wires at the front are lower so they work well underneath a V-neckline. Many of our T-shirt bras also have convertible straps that clip into a racerback or cross-over, so work under lots of different outfits. For a cleavage-enhancing look, try the Deco bra, or if you’re looking for a more natural shape, check out Glossies. There really is a T-shirt bra for every outfit – all you have to do is choose!
T-shirt bras offer all day comfort and support! The Porcelain Elan range is made from a soft microfibre fabric which feels silky smooth against your skin, and there’s also a padded hook-and-eye fastening for extra comfort.
T-shirt bras keep you feeling secure and supported! Some T-shirt bras, are made with a more rigid fabric to keep you feeling secure whilst still giving you a smooth silhouette under clothes. The Satine bra is a padded plunge option with cotton-lined cups - a great alternative to a traditional T-shirt bra.
