A Simple Method for Finding a Great Strapless Bra
If you walk into any department store then you know how many hundreds of strapless bra styles there are made by dozens of popular manufacturers. How are you going to find one that successfully balances the line between comfort, support and protection from slippage? The main concern should be accident prevention and there is an easy solution that helps separate a great bra from a merely good one.
Why sacrifice comfort for support? Normally, a strapless bra is more of an occasional bra that is worn for only a few hours at a time. Even if a bra is not the most comfortable, the duration is short. With this in mind, preventing a wardrobe malfunction takes center stage and the answer lies in the cups.
Finding the perfect strapless bra starts with the cups. The best bra maker understands that a simple way to prevent a slip is by the use of thin strips of rubber. When sewn into the top and bottom areas of the cup these strips provide much needed friction that will help the skin grip the bra and keep it in place. This is especially important when it is warm and sweat may cause the skin to become slick or in situations where there may be vigorous movements such as from fast dancing.
If your favorite bra maker does not use this type of interior cup gripping material, you still have a choice. Most quality craft stores and sewing shops will sell rolls of rubbery tape which can be sewn into your favorite bra. The cost is very inexpensive and it allows you to add an extra layer of fashion protection. It is so easy to prevent a wardrobe malfunction by either buying the right bra or retrofitting an older bra with gripping material. It will allow you to enjoy your special occasion without worrying about a slip.
