The 7 Best Strapless Bras for Small Busts

No wardrobe foundation is complete without a strapless bra. Yet most of us will probably agree that strapless bras can go horribly wrong for any number of reasons. Whether it’s slippage, uni boobs, or what can only be described as the ace bandage effect, finding a good strapless bra is a challenge, to say the least.
Laura Tempesta, bra expert and founder of Bravolution, says that “smaller busted bodies have a shape under the breasts that are flatter. It’s more like a shallow “U” or a straight line. For that reason, smaller-busted consumers should look for bras with a straighter line design under the bust.”
For those with small busts, accommodating a strapless look may be easier than it is for your DD counterparts. Though adhesive bras and bandeaus are pretty great, they’re not your only option, nor are they always the best option. The best strapless bras should lift, separate, support the girls, and stay put.

Pepper MVP Multiway Strapless Bra
Pepper
Stylist and founder of Be Brilliant Styling, Liana Galardi-Murgola, likes the MVP Multiway Strapless by Pepper.
“The Pepper brand revolves around the idea of empowering women to feel extra confident and proud of their small chests,” says Galardi-Murgola. “They have their own cups, which prevent gapping, which can be a big problem for smaller busts. A majority of their bras have a natural lift, which doesn’t make you feel like you are trying to make your bust look bigger.”
With almost 1,000 reviews and a near-perfect rating, it would appear that Pepper is a fan favorite. Available for small busts starting at AA, the MVP strapless features a flattering balconette cup for a nice lift, and convertible straps give you incredible flexibility.
Size Range: AA - B | Colors: 5 | Materials: 75% Polyester, 25% Elastane
