Figleaves have seen a 40% increase in customers shopping for unwired comfortable bras in the last couple of weeks, as people are advised to stay home. Victoria Shelton, garment technologist at Figleaves, says: “Our wardrobe needs have changed as we find ourselves at home. We all still need to wear a bra as our breasts need to be supported – due to their weight you may damage your posture or have back pain if your breasts aren’t fully supported – but the good news is we can switch to something super comfortable so we can enjoy that no bra feeling.”
Here are Figleaves’ top picks of the most comfortable options:
- Pour Moi? Twist Cotton soft non-wired bra – Made with a lightweight padding to give you shape, this soft cotton bra has adjustable straps for a customised fit. With a fresh and pretty stripe across the top cup, it’s totally stylish and even comfortable enough to be worn as a sleep bra.
- Fantasie Impression bralette – The Fantasie Impression bralette is designed for comfort with non-wired cups with a super soft brushed lining and adjustable straps. The deep under band and opaque wings give extra comfort and contemporary geo-wave lace adorns the cups for a premium look.
- Sloggi Go Allround bralette – The Sloggi Go Allround bralette is one size fits almost all and is universally comfortable. The 360° stretch MicroModal is breathable and has moisture wicking abilities, truly giving that second skin feeling. With a V-neck at the front and back, it has moulded and lightly padded cups.
