In neutral colours such as nude, black and white, it'll create a smooth and seamless silhouette under your clothing.

Customer review: "A comfortable strapless bra? Oh yeah, this one is! I spent forever searching for a strapless bra to wear with the latest summer fashion. I'm thrilled to say I found one that does that and way more! I am a 38DD and this is true to size, if not a tiny bit on the snug side. The silicone strips keep it in place, the wide band prevents any showing of rolls in the back and the cups go far enough over on the sides to hold the entire breast side to side."

Customer review: "This is hands down the best bra I have ever purchased. Having lost a lot of weight, I struggle with sagging breasts and a lot of excess skin. I have searched for such a long time for a bra that will give my breasts some volume without digging in and having overspill of skin at the sides. This bra is it. Its amazing, comfortable and makes my breasts look perky!!! I LOVE it and will be purchasing more in the future. Buy one, you won't be disappointed."

Brilliant."

Customer review: "This one is it! It is incredibly comfortable, flattering, doesn't show under clothing, and fits perfectly true to size. There is plenty of lift even without an underwire (which I hate because inevitably the wire is poking me and/or poking through almost immediately. And I get plenty of cleavage without the dreaded mono-breast. I now have three of these and expect to buy many more."

Customer review: "I like the shape this bra gives to my bust. It's very comfortable, with reasonable support. It's smooth, so fine to wear with sheer clothing, or t-shirts etc. It's simple but modern. When I find a bra like this, it makes me wonder why I bothered with underwire all those years! I recommend."
