The Best Strapless Bras for D+ Cup

November 09, 2021

I once wore a strapless bra to a family wedding under my favourite halter dress. I felt fabulous, like movie-star fabulous. After a champagne or three, I jumped with gusto to catch the bride's bouquet and in the blink of eye (or in my case, the click of a gazillion embarrassing photos) my strapless bra flipped down over my stomach. Yes, it is possible. Yes, I did do an elegant canter to the ladies' room to adjust myself (and then sat in the corner to eat cake for the rest of the night). Yes, I kicked that bra to the curb as soon as I got home! But I couldn't help but feel upset about the fact that my bra had put me in the corner all night... nobody puts baby in the corner! Just because my cups runneth over, why should I be destined to never be seen in strapless, halter or backless dresses or to sit in the corner all night?

Since that fateful day, I'm happy to report that a friend introduced me to my saviour of the strapless bra world (Fantasie's Smoothing Moulded Strapless Bra) and I've regained faith in the strapless bra and its ability to securely hold my G cup bust. I've even found a couple of other strapless bras that hold me up comfortably, without having to be pulled up every five minutes.

We have so many options for stunning outfits all year round that need a tried and tested strapless bra, so don't steer away from the outfit of your dreams simply because you wear DD+ cup bras! Whether it's for the spring racing carnival, the end-of-year party season, or for a wedding where you fancy catching a bouquet, take it from me... make sure you're wearing a strapless bra that fits you well, and supports you without feeling like a distant relative of a boa constrictor. If you love a horse race, a party, a wedding, or just want the extra outfit options that a strapless bra provides; now is the time to get fitted for a strapless bra.

Let's face it, you're probably reading this post because you need a strapless bra and you just want someone to tell you which one is best for larger cup sizes. So we've put together our top 5 strapless bra recommendations for larger cup sizes:
