We all know that summer is all about strapless or very thin strapped dresses and tops–it’s inevitable! It’s what is in style, pretty, and quite frankly–keeping us cool during the hot summer months. BUT…we always seem to struggle with getting that strapless bra to fit just right! Don’t try to hide it, because I KNOW that you have found yourself huddled in a corner at an outdoor summer party or BBQ, hunkered over, trying to discretely get your strapless bra pulled up.
I’ve been there, too–many times! The journey to finding the perfect strapless bra can seem daunting, but not to fear! I have partnered with my friends over at Intimacy, the bra fitting specialists for some exclusive tips to make sure everyone’s wearing the right bra this summer!
Finding The Perfect Strapless Bra
· Always make sure your strapless bra band is firm against your body because 100 percent of your support comes from the band.
· The bra cups should encapsulate all of the breast tissue and the center core of the bra should sit flat against your chest.
· Make sure that the neckline of the bra works with the outfit you are wearing. Strapless bras can come in many different styles like full cup, plunge and convertible.
· Keep in mind that most strapless bras do come with straps and convertible options, so it can serve many purposes.
I also wanted to add that whenever I worked in the wonderful world of maternity fashion, we always referred our pregnant customers to Intimacy because of the amazing job they do of turning bras into nursing bras if they are able to and perfecting the fit for Mama-to-be! You will always walk away from Intimacy with the perfect bra in hand!

My biggest bra fitting nightmare went on for about a year after my youngest son quit nursing. My cup size and my waist size changed so much that for over a year I never had a decently fitting bra for more than a few days!
Oh no! That does sound like quite a nightmare! I still have the strapless bra a wore when I was pregnant…I need to get rid of that for sure!
Thanks so much!!!!
I don’t have idea of my cup size because i don’t know t_t
So funny! You def need to see a specialist and get measured…skip Victoria’s Secret and check out Intimacy, they are amazing!
Is that when I get measured at deparment stores they are not trained right and I wind up buying a bra that is either illfitted not knowing it is.
Exactly! That’s why Intimacy is Ah-mazing! They get it right!
