Why so many women are throwing out their underwire bras (and what they wear instead)

It lifts like a push-up, leaves no marks and you forget you're wearing it from morning to night. Here are the 7 reasons why underwire no longer has any reason to exist.

A woman wearing the Jelly bra

Let's be honest: your bra hurts. Not a little. Every single day.

You know the moment. You get home, close the door, and the very first thing you do, before you even take your shoes off, is unhook that bra.

The relief is instant. The red marks under your bust. The straps that dug into your shoulders. The wire that poked you all day long, and always ends up breaking through the fabric.

You've been told it's normal. That it's the price to pay for a nice shape under your clothes. That you have to choose: a bra that holds you but hurts, or a comfy bralette that flattens everything.

That's not true. And once you realise it, there's no going back.

It lifts like a push-up. Without a single gram of metal.

It's the first thing that strikes you. No underwire, no boning, and yet your bust is lifted, rounded and held, exactly like a push-up. The secret: soft support bands built into the fabric and shaped cups that carry the bust from below and from the sides.

The silhouette of a proper bra. The comfort of a bralette. No more choosing.

« I’m obsessed. It feels like I’m wearing nothing but still gives me a nice lift. No more red marks on my ribs at the end of the day! »

No more burning red marks at the end of the day

Without underwire, there's simply nothing left to cut into your skin. The edges are soft, the band doesn't squeeze, and the wide straps spread the weight instead of digging into your shoulders.

In the evening, when you take it off, there's nothing to "recover" from. No marks, no sigh of relief. Because there was never any pain.

« I used to hate wearing underwired bras, and took them off the minute I got home from work! This is so comfy I don’t need to do that anymore. It leaves a lovely smooth line under fitted tops and the wider band is very flattering »

Under a white T-shirt, you see… nothing. Just you.

No seams, no itchy lace, no hooks showing at the front: the fabric is smooth from end to end. Under a fitted T-shirt, a dress or a thin jumper, people see your shape, never your bra.

★★★★★

« No pinching or squeezing. Comfortable but also supportive, not like usual bralettes. I’ve now ordered a second one in a different colour to have these as my daily wear. »

Goodbye to the little bulge on your back

It's the detail you notice in the mirror, from behind or from the side. Here, the sides come up higher and the band is wide: nothing spills out under your arms, no back bulge, and no more tugging at it ten times a day.

« I love this bra from the first day I got it. It feels I'm not wearing it at times. The bra lifts, and holds my brrast in for comfort like no other bra. The bra is a real blessing, just to feel comfortable. I needed this bra for support, comfort. Thank you. »

Finally, a wireless bra that REALLY holds fuller busts

Let's be honest: most wireless bras stop holding anything beyond a B cup. This one was designed to carry and support fuller busts: from S to 4XL, from 70B to 100F.

Not sure about your size? The size guide gives it to you in 30 seconds, from your band size and your usual cup.

« I purchased a large as I am a 36DDD. This is the most comfortable and best fitting bra I've found in so long. Seems to be pretty supportive, I do have it as tight as it goes so I feel it may loosen but it keeps the girls in place for no underwrite and no uniboob so far. »

You'll forget you're wearing it. Really.

The fabric is soft, stretchy and breathable. It moves with you when you bend, sit down, carry your shopping or your kids. Lots of customers wear it from morning to night and end the day without remembering they had one on.

So comfortable

So comfortable and buttery! Favorite bra ever. Doesn’t dig into your skin, has the perfect padding, and lasts perfectly through wash! I wanted a bra I could wear all day everyday without feeling constricted and this is the one!

Comfortable

Probably the most comfortable bra I’ve ever had. Not a huge fan of wire bras and they still felt like everything was supported and not going to fall out. I also just machine wash mine and they are holding up so far.

Great support

This bra works well for me and is comfortable to wear. I have washed it once and it holds it shape well. The light pads are removable and stayed mostly in place when I washed it.
