We caught up with the LIVELY design team to get the inside scoop on all things strapless. From ultra-fem laces to active-inspired bands, our fit experts shared details from the design process and some pro tips for getting that perfect fit.
Deets below!
Top tips to wearing a strapless?
All of the LIVELY bras have a hook and eye back closure, which makes it easy to find a great fit. We recommend to always start wearing your bras on the loosest setting in the beginning! That way you can adjust and go tighter with wear if need be.

Key elements:
The Lace, No-wire, and the Smooth Strapless have no-slip construction, including side-boning for extra stability and adjustable, removable straps. We also added wider, active-inspired bands for additional comfort and support. The Smooth Strapless features light padding and is really similar to the T-Shirt bra, it gives a super seamless look under clothes!

Styling notes:
Pick the one that suits you best! The Smooth Strapless is just that - totally smooth under your fave off-the-shoulder looks. The Lace Strapless was definitely made for showing a little peek of that gorgeous lace! The No-Wire Strapless was made to give you ultimate comfort while still providing incredible support.
