No matter your cup size, you know that the mission of finding a good bra that actually stays up is no joke. All bigger-busted people know that the job is even ten times harder when looking for the best strapless bras that are supportive enough for big boobs and heavy breasts, especially when you're looking for some push-up action. That's probably the reason you're here.
After chatting with a bra expert and testing a bunch of styles ourselves, the editors of Women's Health have complied a strong list of the 12 best strapless bras for large breasts based on comfort, fit, and support. Keep reading to discover the best strapless bras for big boobs (hint: you can get many of them on Amazon!) in 2023, according to editors, testers, and experts.
Just because you have a fuller bust doesn't mean you have to go through the torture of underwire bras. "I've never had a strapless bra fit so well before," says one of our testers with a bigger chest. "I've had strapless bras that gape or slide or have too much space. These fit just right and I have not had a problem with them sliding." With soft and flexible support, plus a no-slip strip lining on the top, you can guarantee the girls won't be moving around no matter what you're doing.
Fuller cups mean serious coverage, while an underwire makes sure your boobs stay right where you want 'em. This bra has both of those features, along with the welcome addition of sides that shape and smooth your figure so you can feel your most confident ever.
"This is by far the best strapless bra that I have ever owned," says one of our testers. "There's no slipping and it gives great support for us larger-chested girls. I have owned more expensive brands, but this is better than all of those."
With more than 4,500 five-star reviews, this strapless bra can handle pretty much anything—even a seven-hour dance sesh with all your girls. Plus, the smooth seamless fabric over the contouring cups means you can wear the piece under all your favorite outfits, no matter the occasion.
“Truth: I only wear strapless when I’m at wedding-level events," says WH managing editor Laura McLaughlin. "And if there’s one place where you can’t have a wardrobe malfunction, its at a wedding-level event." Lucky for her, Wacoal's Red Carpet Strapless Bra is universally known and respected for its reliable comfort and support. "Trust me when I say that getting through my cousin's reception rendition of The Time Warp with confidence is really important. And I did it with ease in the Red Carpet."
Strapless bras are often saved for special occasions, but who said they had to be used exclusively for that purpose? No one. Whether you're lounging at home or running errands, this wire-free, comfortable bra allows you to feel ~free~ without going braless.
"I was worried about the fit, since it looked really small," says one tester. "On a whim, I tried it on and it fit perfectly! Not only is it comfortable, but the design smooths everything out." She also notes that this bra stays up really well, so she's not fidgeting with it all night long.
Want a strapless bra customized to your *exact* breast size? You got it. This one from ThirdLove not only ranges from A-H, but with every half-size in between. It also has a silicone top and bottom, so it'll conform to your torso.
WH editorial assistant Addison Aloian loves this bra as she's currently between cup sizes, and it's super accommodating. "It still fits amazingly despite my unconventional cup size," she says. "I also love that it doesn't cut off the top of my chest and give me *that* two-boob look like some other strapless bras can." Another pro? It doesn't dig into her armpits.
Another lover of this bra? WH assistant fashion editor Rose Lauture, who says this is her absolute go-to. "Honestly, I wear this bra under anything! I love that it is super supportive and comfortable and does a great job staying in place."
Want to feel lifted sans underwire? This seamless bra with plunging cups will keep everything in place without sacrificing comfort. Plus, it comes in 21 colors, so you can choose whichever one (or two) fits your style needs.
This bra is also a winner for those with big breasts, per reviews. "I was nervous because I'm a 42F," writes one tester. "The brilliant part of this bra is that it doesn't actually have an underwire. The support pieces appear to be made from flexible molded plastic, so they don't stab into you the way underwire might."
Testers love the look, feel, and comfort this strapless lace bra offers. With this strapless bra, you can trust that everything will stay in place with added underwire, side bonding for extra support, and silicone grips along the top edges. "I especially love that it gives me the look of not wearing one at all," one tester notes. What to thanks for its barely-there look? A soft mesh lining that holds the girls in place but doesn't make 'em look any bigger than they need to.
Finally, a strapless bra that is here to take the plunge with you—literally. Now, there's no need to skip wearing that dress with the really low neckline. This bra is wire-free, comes with removable and adjustable straps, and is made with a super soft fabric you won't mind wearing all day.
One tester who despises bra shopping (especially when she does it online!) was super pleased with this bra. "It fit as expected and it felt secure for a strapless bra," she notes.
WH executive fashion director Kristen Saladino raves about Cosabella's Evolution Strapless Bra (I'm a huge fan of the brand as well!). "Thanks to the super smooth microfiber fabric, the band is soft and doesn’t dig into your back, but at the same time is tight enough to stay up without adjusting all night long," she says. Plus, it gives you a bit of oomph, so the girls look good when you're wearing a low-cut dress.
From renowned designer Josie Natori, the cups of this strapless bra are foam-lined for smoothness. Meanwhile, the three-column hook-and-eye closure in the back makes sure this thing stays snug. Also, the cotton-blend fabric makes for all kinds of comfy.
I'm also someone who despises the constricting feel of strapless bras, but Natori makes my all-time favorite options. They're super comfortable and very supportive, so I'm never worried about the girls popping out or drooping when I wear them. I love that this style in particular has a thicker band, so I always feel secure without feeling like I can't breath. Plus, the cleavage I get with this style is a welcome bonus.
Zero underwire, zero straps, zero bulging—those are our favorite characteristics of this seamless bra. It can be worn with dresses or low-plunge shirts to heighten up the girls (sans signs of sagging!) without getting in the way of your look.
One tester loves this bra so much, she has purchased five of them over the last 10 years." It's now my favorite strapless bra," she says. "With diligent care, I have gotten anywhere from 20 to 30 wearings from each."
Spanx started as a flattering pair of pantyhose, so it only makes sense that their foray into bras would utilize the same stretchy, smooth, shaping technology. This bra has flexible side panels and grippy strips around the cups so the whole bra moves with you, never against you.
"I finally found a strapless bra that actually works," says one tester. "I love the 'smart grip' and how it sticks to the body...So happy I actually found a bra that I like—it's so difficult to with my size!"
For the past few years, Women’s Health editors, including our associate commerce editor Lily Wohlner and commerce editor Jasmine Gomez, have been testing and researching the bestselling, most popular, and top-rated strapless bras for big boobs. Our team consulted Jenny Altman, a bra expert who runs bra review blog ILoveAGood, for the story. Additionally, the team evaluated thousands of customer reviews and ratings to narrow down the best strapless bras for big boobs that cover a wide range of needs and preferences.
What is the trick to strapless bras, you might ask? “Large-busted women need support and separation most of all,” says Jenny Altman, a bra expert who runs bra review blog ILoveAGood. That most likely means opting for a bra with an underwire, but wired bras don't have to be uncomfortable to wear.
"The bras to wear for large breasts are typically wired with covered or padded channels so the wire is soft," Altman recommends. If you prefer a wire-free bra, though, make sure it offers support through its stitching or fabric. It should also have good cup separation, says Altman.
