As most bras are an unseen component of an outfit (a debatable point these days), it is one of the few aspects of a wardrobe that is only for the wearer--and perhaps a lucky suitor. A great bra is, therefore, everything. A little support helps you stand a little taller. A pretty lace situation underneath a simple button-down or casual t-shirt can change the way you carry yourself that day.
We’ve scoured the intimates market to find you the prettiest bras available. Some are full coverage, some demi, some t-shirt bras. We’ve discovered a large range of cup sizes and bra sizes suitable for every stylistic inclination—and every neckline. Make one of these luxe, high-quality, stylish pieces of lingerie your everyday bra. Love your undergarments from the inside. (And I promise I didn’t completely forsake comfort in this quest.)
