We’ve all heard of an LBD, but what about an LBB? That’s a Little Black Bra – a number one essential of any lingerie drawer! It’s something that can be worn for any occasion, dressed up or dressed down, and has your back when you need it the most. We’ve rounded up five of the must-have LBBs, take a look below and make sure you’ve got at least one of these babies in your bra-drobe…
We love a bra that features a light foam lining like the Curvy Kate Daily Dream Balconette Bra, and this makes it a perfect LBB! Without adding any extra volume to your bust, the light padding helps to lift and shape your breasts and also adds an extra layer between your bust and your clothes – great for concealing nipples if that’s something you’re conscious of. Smooth microfibre fabric is sleek and comfortable, keeping the look overall minimal and easy going.
Are your boobs a little side heavy? Looking for some forward projection? Try the Panache Envy bra. This gorgeous LBB is non-padded but has supportive bottom cups that lift the breast from below, giving a great shape. The top cup has a pretty floral stretch lace that moulds to your shape, while the clever side sections direct your breast tissue forwards, meaning it works great under all kinds of outfits to give you a sleek silhouette.
With its sports-luxe styling, the Curvy Kate Lifestyle plunge bra is sleek, stylish and sexy. The lightweight mesh is breathable and comfortable, so much so that you’ll barely even feel it when it’s on! It gives your cleavage a subtle boost by pushing your breasts in and up, without the overbearing effect of a push-up bra. Great for under a cheeky low neckline!
Sometimes you just want to show off your bra and flaunt what your mama gave you – that’s where the Scantilly Harnessed half cup bra comes in! This is a seriously stunning LBB, with faux leather cups and detachable strapping detail which can be worn any way your please - and looks amazing peeking over a low neckline. We think every girl needs an underwear-as-outerwear option in their wardrobe, and this is our top pick!
For when you just need something that gives great shape and can’t be seen under your clothes, you need a t-shirt bra. The Curvy Kate Smoothie Soul plunge bra is our fave, this LBB is cleverly crafted with completely seam-free cups so you’ll have the sleekest of silhouettes while the plunge shape gives you amazing cleavage. Fully adjustable shoulder straps with a j-hook option make it comfortable and easy to wear too, so it’s a win-win!
So there’s our quick rundown of the top 5 LBBs on Brastop! Which is your fave? Do you have any of these already or have we missed out your top choice? Let us know in the comments below!
