Open back

Instead of a stick-on backless bra (which can sometimes feel like there's no support), this strapless number sticks along the sides of your torso. We love that the front fits just like a regular bra—plus, the underwire gives just the right amount of lift you've been looking for.

Strapless bra

Candie's from Kohl's knows where it's at: Its strapless push-up bra is inexpensive, can be worn eight (yes, you heard it right...EIGHT!) different ways, comes with adjustable straps, and (more importantly) doesn't turn into a total disaster if you do decide to wear it without them.

T-Shirt bra

There's something to be said for a good ol' T-shirt bra. They come in a variety of different colors and fit smoothly under your favorite new band tee without any lumps or awk poking and nudging.
